During the week of April 27– may 01, 2026, the EcoBosco Paraguay Project team will be present in Ypacaraí carrying out data collection and fieldwork on the property.
📅 April 27– May 01, 2026 📍 Ypacaraí
A participatory and hands-on learning experience facilitated by the professionals of Porvenir Design, designed for key stakeholders and representatives of organizations allied with the EcoBosco Paraguay Project. Throughout the session, participants will explore the core concepts of permaculture design and discover how to bring this approach into their own territories and educational processes.
A space to learn, ask questions, exchange knowledge, and collectively build a regenerative vision for the land.

After the mid-morning break, we open a new space: a hands-on permaculture workshop led by the visiting team from Costa Rica, where we will explore the principles and practices of agroecological design together with the community — grounding the conversation of the morning into concrete tools and living examples from the territory.
As part of EcoBosco’s ecological restoration efforts, we are supporting a large-scale tree planting event organised by Plantatón Paraguay. This initiative includes the planting of 10,000 native trees in Asunción, as a result of a strategic partnership aimed at restoring urban spaces and strengthening citizen engagement in environmental stewardship.
More than a one-time activity, it represents a concrete step towards greener, more resilient, and sustainable cities, promoting active participation from diverse stakeholders.
