Meet the team

Sector39 began teaching permaculture in Wales, UK in 2006 after 15 years of project development work in Zimbabwe. Over the years we have worked with many people and built an amazing network we can draw on and rise to almost any challenge. The Academy will draw heavily on this network with the aim of linking specific students to mentors and trainers who can help them in their own development as a permaculture trainer.
