Education as if people and planet mattered

This is how we begin again, even at this late hour.

- Joanna Macy, author, A Wild Love for the World and Coming Back to Life An invaluable inspiration, transmitting the spirit of Schumacher and the possibility it holds to seed a new, holistic mode of education for the future.

- Charles Eisenstein, author, The More Beautiful World Our Heart Knows is Possible

In Transformative Learning, Satish Kumar reflects on the legacy of Schumacher College, a beacon of innovation that fosters an ecological-based, holistic model of higher education built around the college's unique "learn by doing," head, heart, and hands pedagogy.

Over fifty current and former instructors and alumni, including Vandana Shiva, David Orr, Kate Raworth, Fritjof Capra, Bill McKibben, Mary Evelyn Tucker, and Jonathon Porritt, paint a rich picture of education for human well-being and the eco- logical health of the planet.

Contributions delve deeply into the nature of transformational learning and holistic education, present a wealth of alumni experiences of working towards an ecological society, and detail the expansion of the Schumacher model to Belgium, Brazil, India, Japan, and beyond.

The result is a rich tapestry of ideas and educational methods packed with insights and experience for practitioners and activists looking to build a just, ecological society.

Brings together some of the leading voices of our time articulating the parameters of a regenerative culture - urgently needed for now and for the future.

- Otto Scharmer, author, Theory U Creating the shift from a materialistic way of life to a new green economy will not be easy. This book provides some very valuable insights on how we might move in this direction.

- Jane Goodall, PhD, DBE, founder, the Jane Goodall Institute, UN Messenger of Peace

Satish Kumar is a long-time peace and environment activist, former Jain monk, and was editor of Resurgence magazine from 1973 to 2016. He founded Schumacher College and lives in Devon, UK. Pavel Cenkl, PhD, is Head of Schumacher College and lives in Devon, UK.

Über den Autor

He settled in the United Kingdom after an 8,000-mile peace pilgrimage and took the editorial helm of Resurgence magazine in 1973, a post he held until 2016. Over the decades, he has been the guiding spirit behind a number of internationally respected ecological and educational ventures including founding Devon's Schumacher College; authoring several books, including Elegant Simplicity; and presenting the documentary Earth Pilgrim. Satish was awarded an Honorary Doctorate in Education from the University of Plymouth, an Honorary Doctorate in Literature from the University of Lancaster, and the Jamnalal Bajaj International Award for Promoting Gandhian Values Abroad.

Pavel Cenkl, PhD, is former Dean of Sterling College, Vermont, a researcher on ecologically minded curriculum development, and an environmental philosophy instructor. An avid endurance and adventure runner, through a project called Climate Run, Pavel has covered hundreds of miles in the Arctic and subarctic on foot in order to bring attention to the connections between our bodies and the more-than-human world in the face of a rapidly changing climate. He is author of Nature and Culture in the Northern Forest and This Vast Book of Nature. He is Head of Schumacher College and lives in Devon, UK.
