Widening Participation - Course Formats

When designing a Permaculture course we have to consider many aspects, one of the most crucial being "Widening Participation".

The main consideration is our target market. Different target groups will require a differently formatted course. Mentally and physically challenged students may need different approaches and the use of different pedagogies. People also learn in different ways, some prefer self-directed learning, others need a  driven group.
