The Project Design mind map template, created by Gaia University, provides a structured 44-node framework for learning permaculture design and project management. It covers six major branches: Intro, Gaia U, Defining a 'Project', Why become a Designer?, Learning Permaculture Design, and Getting a Job. The template defines a project as a 'designed intervention in a system' and emphasizes developing 'resiliency skills' through the '10 cycle rule' to achieve mastery. This Project Design template serves as both a cheat sheet for aspiring ecosocial designers and a practical guide for managing projects with ecological awareness.
