Ecovillage Design is a new and innovative field of design that is emerging to address our current environmental and social crises in a holistic, integrated and positive way, providing sustainable and long-term solutions.

International ecological design teachers and consultants, Morag Gamble and Evan Raymond, from Crystal Waters Permaculture Village, Australia

This workshop provides an opportunity to explore the integrated approach of planning and designing ecologically sustainable human settlements and presents an overview of the design principles used in successful projects around the world.

Ecovillages are designed with ecology in mind and encourage people who live in and visit them to develop an understanding of the interconnectedness of the natural world- to create beneficial relationships between the ecological, social, economic and spiritual aspects of their lives. The aim is to engage people fully with their head, heart and hands.

Many aspects of ecovillages will be explored during this workshop including:
· What is an ecovillage
· Ecovillage design considerations
· Design for sustainable land management
· Infrastructure development for ecological settlements
· Healthy houses and low impact buildings
· Ecological waste management strategies
· Developing a sense of community belonging
· Community Structures
· Right livelihood and strengthening the local economy

The workshop will include images and case studies of international ecovillages, demonstrating the diversity of ways in which ecovillage design principles can be applied to meet the needs of local communities and environments.
