Commons Governance Work Group
Our Mission: We seek to assist in the creation of an integral model of co-governance that can be applied both within existing and emergent commons in various developmental stages and contexts. The Commons Defined: We understand the commons to be a sphere of life that is distinct, both from the public sphere of government provision and distribution, a ...learn more

New : One-Year training cycle Holzer Permaculture at Tamera Peace Research Center : http://www.tamera.org/index.php?id=645&L=0
The forthcoming one-year training in Holzer’s Permaculture includes both the widely-applicable basic knowledge and specific forms of its practical application adjusted to the climatic conditions of southern Europe. The course will teach and apply in practice the knowledge that results from Sepp Holzer’s experience. The training will also convey an impression of the philosophy and the basic ideas of the Peace Research Community of Tamera and give an insight into the work of the “Global Campus”.

Practical seminar Series for Holzer Permaculture
December 2nd – December 8th, 2009
Holzer's Permaculture is ecological knowledge for the future.
It places the human being back again at its natural place in its relationship to nature.
Sepp Holzer is an Austrian mountain farmer who has developed his own very specific type of permaculture for the healing of natural cycles. He leads projects worldwide for the renaturization of landscapes. For two years he has been advising and providing support to the Ecology Team of Tamera in the design and construction of a southern European pilot project of landscape healing.
Through life-long research and practical application, Sepp Holzer has acquired an immense knowledge about the implications in nature and the development of biotopes of abundance, and he now promotes a humane and sustainable interaction with the Earth and all its creatures.
Tamera holds Sepp Holzer in high esteem both for his unconditional solidarity for life at large and for his questioning of established doctrines and refuting them with the visible success of his permaculture. “Think naturally, not normally!”
„Holzer`s permaculture is large scale
landscape healing to correct the
mistakes of the past, to facilitate symbiosis
of interaction, to let nature do its work,
and to reestablish cycles.”
(Sepp Holzer)
“Nature is like a mother. If you treat her well, she will give you everything!”
Each living being knows its task and its place in the whole of creation. There is nothing to be fought against; all things complement and support each other as long as the human being does not interfere. The task of the human is to merely direct, so that the whole can again interact harmoniously and the Earth can unfold her natural abundance, which she then gives away so generously.
Training place: Since the Fall of 2008, Tamera has been Sepp Holzer’s international training place in southern Europe (all seminars in German with translation into English, sometimes additionally into Portuguese or Spanish). The original pilot model in the middle European region is the Krameterhof in Austria (seminars in German).
Theory and Practice: In cooperation with the Ecology Team of Tamera, Sepp Holzer offers seminars at regular intervals. The participants are given the opportunity to study and practice Holzer`s Permaculture in the development of a large scale water landscape project. Each seminar is a live process; its content depends on the time of the year and the actual status of development of the water landscape. A few weeks before the beginning of the seminar, the focus of each seminar is published on this web page.
Basic content:
- Water management of the land and the construction of water retention spaces for the revitalization and the healing of a landscape, on the premise that water is the basis of all life.
- The development of biotopes of abundance where all things complement each other; the self-supply of humans with vegetables and fruits; mixed cultivation and high beds; soil regeneration by means of support plants and plant communities; and the symbiosis of plant and animal interaction. “Together is better than alone!”
- “Think naturally” and “learn to read the book of nature.” Observation of the processes in nature; recognition of interrelationships and direction to produce natural cycles so that self-sustained systems are able to (again) develop by themselves.

Read an article from Sepp Holzer how is working with us in Tamera :
Water is life! - a Model for Renaturation of Dry Regions.
In southern Portugal, a pilot model shows how the desertification of the Mediterranean and other threatened places in the world can be stopped. It is also a model for regional food autonomy.
