Aloha, Hola, Hello, Ciao, Zdravo, Hej, Hujambo, Kia ora, Oi, Li-hó, Ali chishi!
 
Dear friends, dear compañerxs, dear co-creators
 
Happy New Year! We are returning this February with the extraordinary Re-imagining Education Conference 5.0! - we will be playing and learning with the seasons, cycles and energies of change. Please join us in this journey together! You can register, offer to volunteer or become an sponsor here. We are super energized for this new opportunity to play as an organism!

For five years, we have gathered to ask the most fundamental question: Why are we reimagining education? and that is because how we learn changes how we live. REC is a space where reimagining is understood as a living cycle — rich with ups and downs, twists and turns, and journeys inward and outward. 
 
In our early years, we began unraveling systems that no longer serve us. We discovered strength in plurality, grounded learning in the wisdom of our territories, and embraced embodiment and playfulness, inviting our whole selves into learning.
 
This year, as we host our 5th online conference, we are ready to learn from and be inspired by the changing cycles of our collective work.  This conference is an emergent research experiment and a living laboratory for critical pedagogy. We will explore the wisdom of the Earth and its elements to guide us.

This event is offered in the spirit of the gift economy, with plenty of ways to contribute monetarily and beyond. Find out more by registering here.
 
Lastly, if you are part of or know an organization that would like to support us, please get in touch by responding to this email. We are calling in more support for all the behind-the-scenes work that makes this all possible.
 
Dancing the seasons of the earth and with brave hearts,
The REC Organizing Crew
