Fulfilling Our Promise:
Becoming Inclusive Waldorf Communities
To build community, sharpen skills, and add to your collective toolkit, we offer an online course called Fulfilling Our Promise: Becoming Inclusive Waldorf Communities for schools and organizations, designed to acquaint participants with the DEIJ landscape and deepen the potential for transformation in their communities. With 7 modules of content, an Index module, and an additional facilitator module, working through the course over at least a full school year provides about 1-2 months for each module to be completed, discussed, and integrated by participants (including faculty, staff, Board, and parent leadership).
Public Courses for Individuals
We offer a variety of public courses for individuals to build cross-community connections and offer specialized learning. We have offered stand-alone 1-hour seminars, as well as intentional cohorts lasting up to 10 months. Topics have included Cultural Appreciation, Healing and Hope Across Difference (focused on cross-movement solidarity), and Pedagogical Storytelling for Early Childhood.
