Course Goal / Objective

Permaculture course aims to provide knowledge and skills in sustainable agriculture and ecosystem management. Students are given the ability to design self-sufficient and environmentally friendly systems by imitating natural ecosystems. This approach aims to ensure ecological, economic and social sustainability.

Course Content

Permaculture, by definition, is a combination of the English words permanent and agriculture. The aim of permaculture, which was founded by Australians Bill Mollison and David Holmgren in the 1970s, is to bring plants, animals and people together in nature to create easy-care, stable and self-sufficient production sites. Permaculture is closely related to the nature-inspired design model biomimicry, as it is a model established by imitating the features observed in natural ecosystems.
