AMAIDI Foundation is planning to start a new type of school in India, a school for all, preparing the children for a world where we are all free from fear, where we do not only tolerate but seek differences between people as a way to experience the richness that human society has to offer to all of us. This new school is a place where children gladly want to be, where the bonds that tie us in our community are not lost but involved to guarantee a rich experience in which student and teacher roles interchange constantly in a context where all participants feel safe to interact freely and develop individually towards self-confident and relation sensitive makers of a new society.

AMAIDI School4all wants to include all children
Normally a school is founded by one person or a small group anticipating a future for which they design an educational system and present that to the world as a product of their personal imagination. AMAIDI wants to design this new school in a different way: through networking with all who are interested to re-make education and bring it back to its roots where the teacher and the student enjoy being together in interchanging roles. And where creativity is not a subject but the basic energy on which all that happens thrives. AMAIDI School4All wants to support efforts undertaken by the Government of India in achieving the Millennium Development Goal ‘Education For All’. It therefor seeks coöperation with the private as well as with the public sector and the government involvement in supporting inclusive education in India.
AMAIDI Foundation invites you all on this terrific journey of re-creating education in India, using this weblog as our pied-a-terre where we touch down, reporting from the field and gathering information, opinions, benchmarks, initiatives from other countries etc. We’ll be generously taking up links, creating a flood of information emerging ourselves in it in the hope that being intuitive and receptive as we go will keep us on track.
