International Conference on Curative Education and Social Therapy (also online!)

October 5, 2020 @ 18:00 - October 9, 2020 @ 12:30 CEST

Education – always! Developing what lives in me and moves the world

This year’s major international Autumn Conference for Curative Education and Social Therapy will take place at the Goetheanum in Dornach (Switzerland) from 5 to 9 October 2020 and will be dedicated to the theme of lifelong learning and life span development.

We are pleased that we were once again able to put together a rich and colourful conference program with inspiring lectures and a wide variety of workshops. Many thanks to all who have submitted a proposal!

Sign up now! Registrations and cancellations are possible until the beginning of the conference.

Registration for on-site participation is done through the Goetheanum.

Online registration closes on October 5, 16:00 GMT+2

Participation now also possible online!

We are pleased to offer an online format with live streaming of the lectures in several languages, access to recordings of the lectures, interactive discussion groups and some hybrid and online working groups (see below). It is planned that the livestream will be available in German, English, French, Italian, Dutch and Russian. Following the livestream, the lectures will also be available as videos. A Spanish and Chinese translation will be provided as a video within one day after each lecture. If you cannot be present at the Goetheanum, register now for online participation – individually or as a group! We would be pleased to receive a contribution, freely chosen according to your circumstances and possibilities, for the solidarity-based financing of our conference and the online offer. However, participation is also possible free of charge if no financial contribution is possible in your situation.

Protective measures during the conference

For the duration of our conference at the Goetheanum, a protection concept has been developed by the Goetheanum:
In the Main Hall the place can be freely chosen and there is a duty to wear masks, because we want to protect ourselves and our neighbors.
During the conference, masks are compulsory throughout the Goetheanum building. In the rooms of the workshops, the mask can be taken off if the distance rule is observed.
During the conference there will be regular announcements about the safety concept.
Status 15.09.2020, subject to change
