PRESENTING

The reasons for a title

image004We entered the second  decade of the 21st  century through a pandemic, which is   still going on and has profoundly changed the ways  we live,  work and study as well as our human, social and economic relationships.
Since February 24th 2022 we  have been experiencing  a war that is changing the world order, and  is likely to be followed by a  dramatic phase of recession.
With this scenario, it is unacceptable to perpetuate the existing school system, the most conservative of all,  and not to face the challenges of a deep rethinking of education, in order to meet the needs of the new generations.
Which responses to the  many challenges unmet so far, which perspectives, which new narrative about the purpose of learning in this second decade of the 21st century?
The old paradigm of learning is locked in through a tacit narrative of ‘success’ for individual students supported by individual teachers.    A new narrative is expansive, informed and profoundly moral  and supported  by a new teachers’ professional and social capital.
What we need  is  an education for human flourishing and  a new approach based on science and evidence, with  particular  reference to neuroscience and big data.
Our goal must now be to direct our educational endeavours explicitly to thriving at four inter-related levels: planetary, societal, interpersonal and intrapersonal. This is an alternative vision of ‘success’; a vision that combines insights into the deep connections between our inner wellbeing and that of the planet, as well as addressing the preconditions for a prosperous, peaceful, equitable community,  incorporating the values ​​of well-being, sustainability, solidarity, sharing of responsibilities.
These are the reason for the title of this international 2022 meeting: A SCHOOL WITH NO WALLS. An ecosystem approach to education.
A title which tells us  about the need to open  our schools to the outer world in a way in which vision, environment and human capabilities work as interdependent  parts to strengthen and support one another.
An ecosystem that gives students a voice, offers  them  the opportunity to learn in real-world contexts  and  face challenges.
