Northern California Waldorf Teachers Conference

Renewing Our Commitment to the Health and Well-Being of the Growing Child in the 2020s – Northern California Waldorf Teachers Conference with Keynote Speaker Dr. Michaela Glöckler

Waldorf education must continue to renew and redefine its orientation and priorities in a rapidly changing social and technological setting. Contemporary culture increasingly has the potential to undermine the healthy unfolding of childhood with repercussions for the whole of life.

In an educational environment where stress, burnout, postural damage, and mental health issues are becoming commonplace among students and teachers, can Waldorf schools be a bastion of health? Dr. Michaela Glöckler will bring her many years of experience as a pediatrician and Waldorf school doctor as well as her concerns for child health in contemporary society. She will offer guiding thoughts for Waldorf teachers as we navigate our way into the second half of the decade.
