Ecological and Social Innovations in Germany

A charitable company for researching, supporting and publishing ecological and social innovations has been started in Germany. It is the idea of Professor Declan Kennedy and Professor Dr Margrit Kennedy, the couple who introduced Permaculture to Germany in 1981 and to many other European countries since. Declan is Irish and was a professor of urban infrastructure and former vice-president of the Technical University of Berlin. Margrit is German and a professor for resource-saving building techniques at the Architectural Department of the University of Hannover.
