Bogdan Popov lives and works in Ukraine. We are raising funds through GiveAll2Charity which will allow him to complete the 3LM Holistic Management programme, online.
Bogdan plans to turn, Ecological Research Station Hlyboky Balyky into a demonstration site of holistic pasture management. He also hopes to be able to teach his approach to others in Ukraine. For more information about the programme click here.

Once I learned about holistic management from Allan Savory's book, Holistic Management: A New Framework for Decision-making, I understood that this incredibly powerful and effective approach has the potential to make changes for the better where I live in Ukraine. I got inspired and wanted to use it to help both my projects as well as others. However, I understand that in order to start using Holistic management properly I need training. That’s why it is important for me to take the course.
I have various skills and experiences during my life. I studied ecology (Msc) and worked as a blacksmith and trained other people. I learned and practised permaculture design for many years, taught it and translated Bill Mollison’s book, Permaculture: A Designers' Manual, to Ukrainian and Russian. I focused on eco-sanitation and developed a closed loop wastewater treatment system which was successfully installed. For the last four years I have worked as a director of the Ecological Research Station near Kyiv (www.balyky.org) which is basically a scientific hub and experimental and demo plot for various sustainable approaches.
I hope to be able to use holistic management planning for organising the performance of our organisation, creating examples of holistic pasture management at our research and demonstration farm. I also hope to be able to teach this approach to others in Ukraine, and consult with farmers in order to spread the adoption of this approach. I wish to found the Ukranian hub for the Savory Network.
