A unique and urgently needed anthology of lectures aimed at improving awareness of diversity, empathy and inclusion in Waldorf early childhood programs. Featuring contributions from authors from a wealth of Black, Brown, Indigenous and LGBTQ+ experience, the writings encourage teachers to understand the importance of understanding not only the developmental needs of children, but also the context of the society and structures that influence them.
Towards a Kinder, More Compassionate Society encourages Waldorf early childhood practitioners to develop humility, curiosity, interest, wonder and integrity, and urges readers to recognise the ways in which they can be influenced.
This is a powerful call to early childhood practitioners to embrace and encourage change.
