No 6 Harmony Project's Richard Dunne with Neil Hawkes

Richard Dunne is inspiring!  He is someone who is making a huge contribution in the world of education.  He founded The Harmony Project after developing the Harmony approach to learning in his previous role as Headteacher.  This approach brings together subject-specific skills and knowledge around projects or enquiries of learning that take learning beyond the classroom and apply it to the real world. Each enquiry references a principle of Harmony in Nature – Interdependence, Cycles, Diversity, Adaptation, Health and Oneness. When learners understand these principles of Harmony, they learn what they need to do to live sustainably, too. It is our lack of understanding of these principles that has led us to a place where the future well-being of our planet and its people is now at stake.Richard now shares this approach across the education sector nationally and globally. He is doing amazing work in the Ukraine. He gives presentations, workshops and school support programmes. He has written a teachers’ guide to enable teachers and educators to implement Harmony principles and practices in their education settings. The guide is being promoted as a blueprint for Education for Sustainability with the English Department of Education. It has now been translated into nine languages.Richard's work is supported by King Charles, as it is a huge contribution to teaching about sustainability.Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/bernie-rosa/dandelions-scatterLicense code: OJMHMFQBUZYDDSUY  For more information about the transformational work of the IVET Foundation and its global Affiliates visit http://www.ivetfoundation.com Thanks for listening!
