Education

BEND aspires to inform members and the wider public of anything it has learned that can help others to replicate or advance sound social and environmental outcomes. This is why all our documents and reports are freely available on our Resources page.

We also ran specific courses and workshops locally for the Bega Valley community, which were made possible through a grant from the Mumbulla Foundation and our partnership with the Far South Coast Community College.

Workshops Held in 2006

'Backyard Food Gardens' with John Champagne

'Composting Toilets that Council Will Approve' with Kym Mogridge

'Backyard Greywater Systems' with Kym Mogridge

'Lawns to Lunches' with Kathleen McCann

and finally 'Consensus Decision Making' with Jenny Spinks was a great climax to our series of workshops.

The course notes of many of these workshops are downloadable from the BEND Resources page.

For more information on these or possible future workshops and courses, you can email brogopg(at)bigpond.net.au or contact
