National Permaculture Associations, Institutes and Organisations in Europe
Across Europe, permaculture is supported by a diverse network of national associations, institutes, and organizations that promote regenerative design, education, and community building. These national permaculture associations and institutes often coordinate training programmes, support practitioners, and help develop the permaculture movement within their countries.
Some organisations focus on education and research, offering courses, workshops, and permaculture design training. Others act as national networks that connect projects, practitioners, and communities, while also representing permaculture at the national or regional level.
On this page you will find a growing list of national permaculture associations, institutes, and organisations active across Europe. These bodies play an important role in strengthening collaboration, supporting education, and developing permaculture practice in their respective countries.
If your organisation is not yet listed, you are welcome to add it and contribute to making the European permaculture landscape more visible and connected.
