[Day 2] Emotional Well-Being, Creativity and Learning:
Growing Systemic Education

The Influence of Our Own Systemic Position on our Children and Students: By gaining insight into how systems function, it becomes possible to align more with the flow.  Just by looking with systemic eyes, everything changes: a child can relax, there is peace in the class, there is cooperation in the team and you have more peace and space to perform your profession.

Adapting ecl Tools for Homeschooling – an Experiential Workshop: Learn to use ecl activities to support children’s well-being and creativity, adapted for homeschooling. Bring paper and drawing materials to the workshop.

Finding the Narrative. Healing Stories for Children: Learn how to use constellation work and story to help children understand themselves and their needs.

Self-Organized Breakout Sessions.

Presentations by Conference Participants

One of the most valuable gifts of this gathering is the collective wisdom of our community. To support our connection and wisdom sharing, we are inviting participants to create SELF-ORGANIZED sessions. NOTE: Not all sessions were recorded.

Learn to BE, not Taught to Fit: How can changing education become a cultural trend? How might we break the walls of campuses and turn the world into a boundless school? Explore these two questions with the experiences and visions from Asia’s biggest alternative education campaign: Za Share.

Reconnecting Schools After Lockdown: To re-connect, our school leaders will need to sit courageously with the vulnerability of ‘not knowing’ but truly listen in to their communities, truly hear the said and sense into the unsaid.

Teaching and Learning in a Quantum Reality: Thought, information, knowledge, intelligence, learning: how we understand the very nature of teaching and learning becomes redefined through systemic education.
