Kindergartens – Seeds for the Future of Humanity
Description
A contribution by Philipp Reubke
Philipp Reubke describes an attitude that is growing ever stronger today: when we encounter resistance, we become hard and believe that conflicts can be solved through power or even violence. He sets against this the quiet countermovement of the kindergartens: a work that often remains invisible but has a deep effect. Out of practice, he shows how the care of early childhood cultivates social qualities – through relationship instead of exclusion, through balance between effort and well-being, through attentiveness to the visible and the invisible.
A contribution by Philipp Reubke to the World Conference “Kindergarten and Early Childhood” in April 2026 at the Goetheanum.
