Neohumanist Education Exchange

Branded the Neohumanist Education Exchange and guided by the motto “Innovate · Collaborate · Elevate”, the series offers participants opportunities to share innovations, collaborate interactively, and deepen their understanding of Neohumanist principles in practice.

Since October 2025, sessions have covered a rich range of topics. October 2025 featured a deep dive into curriculum design, with presenter Andjela Vekic exploring the three layers of Neohumanist curriculum frameworks. January 2026 brought a lively and best-attended session titled Creative Storytelling from a Neohumanist Perspective, led by speaker Rutger Tamminga. Participants explored the psychology of storytelling, learned creative story prop-making methods, and practiced crafting original stories for all age groups — making it a practical and inspiring session for educators at every level. Other recorded sessions available for replay include a discussion of

leadership traps in effecting social change with Satya Tanner, cultivating happiness through self-care with Bruce McEwen, and how persuasive rhetoric shapes the future with Andy Douglas. Participants’ feedback is used to shape future topics, ensuring that the content remains relevant and valuable. Looking ahead, the May 2026 meetup features Didi Ananda Anuraga presenting on the experience of building a school from the ground up.

Planning is already underway for the coming year. The team will meet in June to shape a lineup of ten meetups: five focused on Neohumanist teacher themes in schools, and five highlighting exciting courses across the expanded disciplines offered at NHCA.

All meetups are free, and past sessions can be accessed https://www.nhca-gurukul.org/nhe-exchange. To share your interests or register for upcoming events, visit nhca-gurukul.org/meetups or write to .
