Sustainable Skills Summer School
15-23 January 2011
The sustainable skills summer school is a response by Transition Town Oamaru to the imminent consequences of peak oil and climate change.
The purpose of the world-wide Transition Town movement is to help communities prepare themselves for a time when readily available oil and its products become increasingly scarce.
We have called on mostly local people who have sustainable skills that they are willing to teach in order to help the community become more self-reliant.
Sustainability is defined as the ability to meet present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs.
