Ramin FARHANGI
Founder of Ecole Dynamique
France
Presenter:
Lab 1 - Reinventing school governance
Ramin founded Ecole Dynamique in Paris in 2015, inspired from the 50 years of experience of Sudbury Valley School, where children are free to live their own lives and have an equal share of the power to debate and vote on school rules, sanctions and management decisions. Ecole Dynamique is currently inspiring a boom in democratic education in France, especially thanks to Ramin’s TED Talks : Pourquoi j’ai créé une école où les enfants font ce qu’ils veulent (EN subtitles available); Transforming schools into democratic communities.
