Schumacher Wild: A New Chapter
As Schumacher College transitions from the Old Postern into a nomadic presence, we are excited to introduce Schumacher Wild. This innovative model represents a dynamic approach to education and community engagement, built through collaboration with local and global partners. Our journey is rooted in a profound inquiry into our essence and service, guiding us to explore what Schumacher College truly stands for in today’s world.
Pruning Back to the Roots:
Rediscovering Our Essence
Manifesting the Essence:
Serving People and the Planet
At Schumacher College, we believe in the power of introspection. This phase of internal inquiry focuses on understanding our foundational roots and essence. We are asking critical questions:
What is the core essence of Schumacher College?
How can we better communicate our foundational values?
This reflective process will help us connect with our past while charting a path for our future, ensuring that our mission remains relevant and impactful.
In an ever-changing world, we must consider how Schumacher College can best serve individuals and the planet today. This external inquiry focuses on:
What new growth, or "shoots," should we nurture?
What type of learning is truly needed in our current context?
We seek wisdom from diverse sources, aiming to redefine our curricula and pedagogy to reflect the pressing needs of our time. This is not merely a promotional effort; it is a process of pollination—spreading the Schumacher Way while gathering collaborators, supporters, and the essential nutrients and knowledge that will help us thrive.
