Parents who are unsatisfied with the current educational system and that are looking for other options (democratic schools, homeschooling, unschooling), can get at the conference information, empowering insights and the opportunity to share experiences and connect with like-minded parents.

What is in it for children/youth?

A lot of space for free play: forest, fields, a playground and a craft room.

Children and youngsters are welcome at all of the activities of the program. Part of the program will be aimed especially at young people.

Program: Open Space

An important part of the program consists of open space. Open space gives all participants, adults and children alike, the opportunity to give a lecture, lead a workshop, host a circle or organize an activity, about anything they feel worth sharing. This always leads to a very rich variety of learning opportunities.
