The New School Permaculture is a non formal school with the vision to create harmonious social and ecological learning environments.

Our Mission is to focus our energy on researching and developing
sustainable educational methods to inspire active elements of change in this world.

The intention with our courses is to empower our students so that
they become more connected with their dreams and passions and
more aware about how to create beneficial connections that will
contribute to our local and global dreams.

All courses are taught by Helder Valente and by the New School Permaculture team and most of them are at Atlantis Food Forest .
