ERES Latino America

ERES (Escuelas de Regeneracion Eco Social) is a living, learning community of regenerative design professionals leading an education revolution now, where learning is sustainability, is change, is movement of mind.

As part of a global network we exist to energize the collective genius of our people and communities, to stimulate regionally coherent eco-social regeneration at the local level based on small scale enterprise.

ERES provides transformative action learning pathways that empower and support people to develop the competencies of world creation, as conscious agents of cultural change, leading the transition towards a more ecological and participative world view, designing and implementing their own resilient human settlements and landscapes.

We provide a range of services to people, communities and organisations:

• Flexible and individually tailored learning pathways in our own homes, communities and projects. 

• Peer to peer evaluation and support documenting outcomes and sharing the results.

• Project innovation researching and implementing viable and replicable solutions.

• Consultancy facilitation, planning and design services enabling existing communities, organisations, businesses to change and adapt.

ERES Latino America is an emerging network of projects that is currently led by El Manzano in the BioBio region of Chile.

El Manzano is a working organic farm and small rural community that is waking up and organizing itself for local resilience.

El Manzano is a campus of the great reskilling, a new generation of higher learning communities where students develop their skills as sustainability professionals while working on real-world challenges, 'on the job', as part of a global network. As students work through transformative learning pathways, they develop sustainability literacy and build the competencies required to design and create successful projects for ecosocial regeneration in their own homes and communities.  

El Manzano offers an extensive program of reskilling courses in the practices of sustainable living. The internationally certified Permaculture Design Course we offer provides a foundation in regenerative design.. A two year Diploma in Applied Permaculture Design offers the opportunity to develop design skills with the support of experienced mentors.
