Neo-Humanist Schools From Around The World
Dharmadeva
Ananda Marga has established over a thousand schools world wide. Many of
these schools are in deprived environments where the teacher, parents and
children struggle to find the simplest of equipment. Other schools have been
recognized by the governmental education authorities and given funding.
From the perspective of the west many of the third world schools will look
very poor indeed, yet they have significant support from their communities
and provide sound elementary education where none was to be found before.
A common theme in all Neo-Humanist schools are high levels of play and
enthusiasm. Parents work closely with the school authorities and there are
high levels of community ownership and participation. Many of the schools
are managed by Ananda Marga monks and nuns who work tirelessly and
voluntarily to bring joy and learning into the lives of the young.
The schools presented on this page have been chosen to illustrate the
diversity of schools practicing Neo-Humanist education world-wide.
