Creativity In Play

We'll explore why and how humane education is a 21st century skill and philosophy that helps educators and learners create positive choices and solve problems with sustainable, peaceful solutions. Discover how humane education fosters curiosity, creativity and critical thinking, and instills reverence, respect, and responsibility. Our guest is Shawn Sweeney, National Director of Youth Outreach and Engagement at The Jane Goodall Institute, and a graduate of the Institute for Humane Education. We'll also get a preview from Shawn of the "Educating for a Just, Peaceful & Sustainable Future" Humane Education Conference, coming up in New York City on September 21, the UN International Day of Peace. Keynotes include Dr. Jane Goodall, Arun Gandhi and Zoe Weil. Shawn will co-lead a creativity and humane education workshop with "Creativity in Play" co-host Steve Dahlberg.
