Our Mission
Focus elementary education on
human and planetary well-being
Raise radically responsible humans enabled to give care to their own well-being, to other's well-being and to our planetary flourishing
Earth doesn't need standardized humans. It needs uniquely endowed, self-aware, ecologically identified, and ethically and relationship skills equipped participants.
This collective endeavor seeks consultants and collaborators who want to make sure that elementary age children integrate:
social and emotional intelligence
self-knowledge, self awareness, and self-love
compassion and trauma wound healing
secure relationships, partnerships, collaboration
essential unity and kinship with all living beings
responsibility to self, others, and Earth
We can raise children who understand that humanity's role in the Universe is to be wise caregivers of the entire "Life Project on Earth." Earth needs humans who act courageously to prioritize the mutual flourishing of humanity and planetary biodiversity and ecosystems..
Our Vision
We envision a movement of people who hold space for children, (i.e. teachers, parents, grandparents, caregivers, camp counselors, boys and girls clubs, scouting leaders, organizations, institutions, etc.), to advocate for and empower kids before their teen years to understand their human nature as biological, psychological, and spiritual systems, who empathize with others as unique divine expressions of life's creativity, who are therefore kind and compassionate. Children raised in this way will be respectfully and responsibly related to the more than human world (animals, plants and other breathers) and cherish all of life.
WE INTEND TO BUILD
An international, interdisciplinary collaboration that is intentionally and ethically steering the future evolution of human consciousness by developing an experiential interactive education for children ages 8 to 12.
This collaboration will design and promote a globally distributed, coherent relational education, with parallel re-orientation of teachers and parents, that reconnects young children to their feelings and needs, to nature and Earth, and to truths about life, love, relationships, and reality.
Once designed the experiential interactive curriculum will be implemented in existing and emerging structures, such as schools, homeschooling, on-line, or village communities.

WHY
Theologian Thomas Berry advised that our species needs to reimagine what it means to be a mature human. What is our human identity? What is the role of our species in the cosmos? Human behaviors will be a major determining factor for which other species will continue forward on planet Earth into the future. Our lamentable sense of separation from the natural world has resulted in a generalized belief in human supremacy over it. Coupled with heightened individualism and lack of emotional maturity, humans seem blinded to the irreversible harm and self-annihilation that we are so irrationally perpetuating.
Our educational experiences will reduce the sources of trauma to kids, and empower them to heal and solve problems in communal ways that cause the least harm and the most good. Before reaching adulthood, our children would know how to establish secure relationships and lasting partnerships that facilitate their own and others' growth and each others unique contributions to the future flourishing of life on Earth. They would be clear about the purpose and the meaning of their lives. They would be recognized as servant leaders. They would delight in their creativity.
"We who have lived through the 20th century should realize our responsibility for the challenges that will confront the children entering the 21st century. Our responsibility for the damage done to Earth demands that in these opening years of the new century we give all possible aid to preparing our children for the challenge before them." Thomas Berry
