Education & Internships

 We heal nature by creating habitat for living things and ourselves,

We produce abundance when we allow the interactions among living things to build fertility into the habitat,

We begin to pull excess carbon from the atmosphere when we encourage an increase in the diversity of our habitat,

We begin to build an inclusive society as we include more people in healing nature and producing abundance.

This is the most important work of our time.

If you are looking for a way to contribute to a future that supports human life on this planet, these are the skill you will need to learn.

Participation is flexible depending on David's schedule.  We recommend a commitment of at least three hours a week (perferably weekdays) and participation in weekend events at the Living Systems Institute.  Research and design projects on your own can be anticipated.

What Former Interns Have to Say:

"I truly loved my time working with you! I feel you have so much knowledge and you explain it with ease and on a level someone that doesn't know anything about living system can learn. I tell people about you all the time and would love to come back for more of your meetings."

KH

". . . it was a great hands-on experience! The best way you learn is to try it out yourself and experience it. I appreciated being able to put into practice concepts I had read about in books and discussed with other enthusiasts but did not feel confident jumping in and doing it myself. It was definitely encouraging to see how LSI was applying regenerative principles and how I could do the same in my life."

What You Will Learn

We teach Agents of Habitat about relationships.  Our world is a pattern of interactions among the many species.  Each interaction is based upon the relationships among the individuals involved.  This is our habitat.  It is this habitat that provides the opportunities for individuals to attain their potential. The habitat also sets the limits to what we can attain.  As we learn to embed ourselves in a symbiotic pattern of relationships we learn to use our influence to facilitate the creation of the world we want.
