Dates for 2012 are Feb 20 to Mar 2. Instructors will include Albert Bates (The Farm Ecovillage Training Center), Andrew Leslie Phillips (Hancock Permaculture), Cliff Davis (Spiral Ridge Permaculture) and others.
35 Belizeans hosted here for 5 PDCs. Much of that is possible because of the diversity of students coming from the north.
This class was the greatest bunch of humans I had ever met, with 4 Belizean students, one Mexican, 1 Trinidadian. The women working are my compadre and goddaughter.
We are working with local farmers to make a PDC around Kekchi and Mopan Maya world view in their languages.
This year had 6 Belizeans, 1 Mexican, 4 US (one living in Costa Rica), 1 German living in Belize.
Someone posted about international students staying home, and I replied to that, previously. It looks like their post is gone.
Last year had a great bunch of people from US, Canada, Trinidad, Belize, Mexico, UK. We were, again, blessed with a great bunch of students. This group, like permaculture, was very diverse.
While I agree with the poster that a PDC close to home may be more useful, if you take one here, you will see 20yrs of work, working.
Fantastic! I'd love to be a part of this course in Belize. Beautiful location, great topics, and it looks like a whole lot of fun. Thanks for the filming, editing, and posting!

Nice job Eric. This really gives a good flavour of the incredible learning experience and the amazing group of people who came in 2009.
It gave me great pleasure to watch this.
