To sponsor, support, and spread the word about
The Reimagining Education Conference.
The Re-imagining Education Conference (REC) is a place to be inspired, build relationships, and tap into deep imagination around what learning and unlearning can be. The experience is designed to be a dynamic mix of provocative talks, engaging discussion, and embodied enacting of what alternatives to systematized schooling feels like in our bodies, relational webs, and communities.
This is the 4th annual 4-day conference hosted with & through the Aliança Ecoversities, a web of learners and communities from a plurality of worldviews, backgrounds and experiences.
Some comments that we got after the conference:
“Great affirmation for the lonely work I’ve been invested in for 16 years in Chicago and some excellent new perspective and tools”
Ji Choe
“I appreciated the mix between formal academic work and alternative, more holistic research”.
Michael Lyngstad
“Stumbled across the conference, without really checking and was amazed, yes that is a strong word, but an appropriate one in this case. Amazed of how much of it I could relate to, how much I trusted, how emotional it was grief, laughter. Like finding family members You thought were dead on your way to the postbox”.
Ase Eliason Bjurström
“I appreciated the space to express freely people’s ideas and approaches to education. The meeting up with others who are working to change the educational system and gaining inspiration from what they do.”
Javed Omardeen.
“I felt that this conference was really a coming home from school & returning to Mother for me, after a couple heart-dulling years in a disappointing master's program. Mil gracias for that opportunity to return to myself.”
Grace Logan
“It was quite revolutionary, that movement within my heart, a feeling of warmth, and for a brief moment during the conference I thought, 'hey maybe I can stop hiding from these dreams of mine' because I tend to hide or extract myself from all sorts of situations. And this conference, I get the sense that it was saying to me 'you can dream again, you are allowed to dream.”
Albert Salazar Corrales
