LiberSchool on the Move: 40 Years of Community Schooling in Dialogue with Europe

Two women are presenting their experience with LiberSchool during a public meeting, in front of an audience seated in the hall.

In its 40th year, LiberSchool is bringing its expertise to various European contexts focused on education, community, and change. This is an opportunity to share what we have learned by building a school as a living part of the community: through trust, Deep Democracy, itinerant schooling, Gaia Schools, and new forms of learning.

Arts and Crafts

What does it take to educate a young person? At LiberSchool, we believe it also takes people who are willing to open up their world. That’s how “Arts and Crafts” came to be: a week during which students learn a trade by working alongside those who practice it every day.

LiberSchool a Storytime

Storytime - Radio interview about LiberSchool

LiberSchool was invited to Evoluzione Radio’s Storytime radio program to talk about its educational experience. In the interview we talk about the origins of the school, the educating community, the relationship with nature, and the questions that guide the future of education. A short 8-minute video to learn more about our journey.
