Online zoom sessions - 2.30 PM to 6.00 PM IST - 17th to 21st July 2022
Sven's Geography workshop:
Geography offers more opportunity than any other subject for young people to anchor themselves in their surrounding and develop a deeply personal relationship to the world. What knowledge, skills and perspectives should this subject facilitate, and how can this be achieved without serving Eurocentric or colonial narratives?
Sven  Saar will offer many examples from Steiner Waldorf practice in examining how the study of geography allows the developing human being to incarnate into their culture and emancipate themselves from its restrictions at the same time.  Jayesh will complement Sven's geography sessions for grade school, by presenting an outline of 2 high school main lessons - Surveying & Oceanography, on the penultimate day. The geography workshops will be available online on zoom. 

Lakshmi's workshop:
We will explore changing consciousness of children during primary/high school years till young adulthood and relate it to the geography curriculum in  Waldorf schools. This will also be available online on zoom.
