hi friends. i just received a report from colleagues in haiti about their Schools Alive! initiative, which aims to bring lots of educators together in Open Space on the theme: How can we achieve a type of teaching in the classroom which will produce non-violent, self-driven, and eager learners? Here's the beginning of the report and a link:
