Rosemary Morrow has dedicated her life to getting information to people who are very poor or can’t get the information otherwise. By information she means Permaculture knowledge - the tools to dramatically improve the lives of her students.
Not long ago, Rosemary traveled to Kabul, Afghanistan to teach a group of young peace activists Permaculture. The course was supposed to be via Skype, but the connection was so bad that Rosemary decided to pack her bags and go to a town in the middle of a war zone most people are trying to flee from. That is the kind of woman I got to interview for this podcast.
During our hour long conversation we touched on the following:
- Education in Agricultural Science
- Working in Africa and realizing that agricultural science is not relevant to people who are hungry
- Finding Permaculture
- The author Rosemary Morrow
- Co-Founder of the Blue Mountain Permaculture Institute in Australia
- Rosemary’s recent teaching trip to Spain, Portugal and Italy
- Her work in war ravaged countries starting in Vietnam, Cambodia, Uganda and Afghanistan among others
- Training the teachers
- Working with refugees
- Eco villages for refugees
- World Vision
- Ted Talk on Architecture that is build to heal
- Teaching monks in the Himalayas
- Being cultural appropriate
- What can permaculture do for the coasts and deltas
