What is Permaculture?Permaculture is a sustainable farming approach that integrates agricultural ecosystems with natural processes. By applying 12 permaculture principles, we can restore the environment and empower communities for a resilient future.Why Nepal?Nepal s agricultural sector supports 80 of the population, contributing nearly 39 of the GDP. However, farmers face challenges from climate change, including drying water sources, new pests, shifting crop cycles, and unpredictable weather.At this camp, volunteers will work directly with local farmers trained by Volunteers Initiative Nepal (VIN) to address these challenges using sustainable practices.What you will do:-Farm Design: Plan and structure farms following permaculture principles.-Cultivate Crops: Engage in planting, weeding, irrigating, and harvesting.-Organic Composting: Assist in creating eco-friendly fertilizers.-Observe and Interact: Learn by doing and sharing knowledge with local farmers. |
