About the lecture series

As hardly ever before, society is facing global challenges: the Climate crisis, the threat of war, and social justice - these are issues that affect humankind as a whole. What is the task of education in these times? Every pedagogy faces the global challenge of sustainable ecological education, a peacemaking education, and a socially just education that includes all people. It is remarkable, however, that most pedagogies have a solely national reference. In each country, only national curricula apply. Waldorf education is one of the few pedagogies with a global aspect, not only because it is present in almost all countries but also because it gets culturally integrated into these countries. Therein lies a great opportunity for global education. The International Campus Waldorf lecture series wants to discuss the unique global characteristics of Waldorf education: diversity, cultural diversity, sustainability, interreligiousness, and other topics in a global classroom.
