Existing on the five continents, Neohumanist Education
covers several parameters and
has a central purpose:
humanize children
Neohumanist Education promotes
love and respect for all
regardless of culture, religion, race or nationality. It encourages children to extend their attention not only to their well-being, but also to the well-being of other living beings, animals, plants and ecosystems on Earth.
The purpose of Neo-humanist Education is to be a facilitator in the process of transformation of the individual into a healthier, supportive, compassionate and conscious being of its transforming positive role in society.
Children develop self-knowledge and objective knowledge. It is not only an intellectual education, but an education of the heart.
In addition to pedagogical activities, in the Neo-humanist curriculum, differentiated and complementary activities are proposed. These include yoga, meditation, experiences of self-knowledge, cooperative games, theater, circular dances and others. They facilitate the child to reflect on the world, encouraging, inspiring and educating for a constant attitude of solidarity and constructive participation in family, school and community life. Neo-humanist education inspires us to the fascination of learning for life.
Neohumanist education unleashes the infinite learning potential in our lives, expanding our understanding of ourselves and our potential. Spirituality, creativity and love are at the center of this new force.
Imagination
the power to conceive and approve wonderful dreams brings life and energy to the lives of teachers, students and their families. The feeling of not being isolated and alone is in this process, because the feeling of being part of a universal family arises.
The educational model incorporates a harmonious blend of eastern introversive philosophy and extroversive Western science. Its methodology is flexible, creative and culturally sensitive, making it adaptable to different cultures and regions of the world.
The Current Educational System projects the individual as a singular entity against universal forces. Competition and the need to dominate and control are the main points addressed.
