YL Magazine gets a home editing office in Berlin

by

I just had another fun meeting with what I consider Berlin’s most progressive, creative school, and my favourite Germany school principal Margret Raesfeld :-) – her earlier school won 30 awards, if I remember well, was in the news all the time, and received lots of sponsor money! and the new one also already has some of all this… after just three years. So much fun to be there!

We will set up a mobile office in the school – an ISLE, full scale Positive News Boards, co-editing with the students, launching a Local Berlin Edition, Youth Leadership Cinema screens, trainings… to support the positive action spirit.

- Just a few notes : the school exists for three years now, they have lots of projects, more learning than education, they have “Good News” as a subject class weekly, the school has no grades, has won lots of awards, and creates their own books about / in cooperation with changemakers like Muhammad Yunus (see our blog entry below). There is so much happening at this school! Their grounds are still evolving, they will have a great event hall from next spring, are preparing for great outdoor grounds, will evolve into a community, arts, theatre, conference centre… international youth gatherings ? yes, please!

We spent a lot of time together, imagining various scenarios, and our thoughts went just like ping pong always positive, always meeting exact resonance. Miraculous :-)

… and another 7 projects from my quiver @ www.zauberhand.org were received with admiration. Some of them had already been implemented in smaller form at her earlier school.

*Fabulous times ahead*

all sorts of changemaker books on the table :-)
