Colleagues of Developing the Self Developing the World share their experience and knowledge in the arts, education and health in this year-long, self-paced course delivered through EduCareDo. The course supports all those who are part of the life of primary school aged children, to focus education on the essential spiritual foundations that underlie a spirit-led life, an education through which each human being can be given what is essential for their path.
