2026 Social Permaculture Clinics: 4 Online Sessions - Jun 2026

📅 June 4, 11, 18, 25, 2026 | 📍 Online | 🏷️ webinar

The 2026 Social Permaculture Clinics, offered by Earth Activist Training, is a series of four standalone virtual sessions on Wednesdays, June 4, 11, 18, and 25, from 6:00-7:00pm PDT, focusing on navigating community challenges through permaculture lenses. Perfect for permaculture practitioners, community organizers, coop members, activists, and anyone in intentional living groups, these clinics address Self Care (June 4), Negotiation in Community (June 11), Meeting Facilitation (June 18), and Dealing with Difficult People (June 25). Taught by renowned instructors Starhawk and Charles Williams, each 1-hour live session mixes presentations, interactive discussions, and group conversations, with recordings and closed captions provided for flexibility. By donation (recommended $20/session or $80 for all four), it's accessible and supportive of diverse participants. Attendees gain practical tools to strengthen groups, handle conflicts regeneratively, and build resilient social systems—essential for permaculture projects involving teams, neighborhoods, or farms. Learn techniques like nonviolent communication, consensus processes, emotional resilience, and boundary-setting, drawing from decades of experience in ecovillages and movements. For practitioners, this is invaluable for scaling permaculture beyond the land: effective social design ensures long-term project success, prevents burnout, and amplifies collective impact on sustainability goals. Whether facilitating guilds, resolving homestead disputes, or leading workshops, these clinics provide immediately applicable strategies rooted in permaculture ethics. Mix and match sessions or attend all to deepen your toolkit, emerging with confidence to foster harmonious, thriving communities amid global changes.
