From April 10 to 15, the World Teachers' Conference took place at the Goetheanum. 1,000 teachers from over 60 countries met for five days in Dornach, Switzerland. Under the motto "Affirming - Nurturing - Trusting, an Education for Today and Tomorrow," lectures discussed important aspects of teaching design. In discussion groups and workshops we were able to exchange personal experiences and ideas. The Friends of Waldorf Education were present with an information booth. The amount of people interested was great. Some teachers knew us because their schools are supported by the Friends with donations. Many schools are places of service for our international voluntary services or would like to be. There was also a lot of interest in emergency education and Fiona Bay's workshop was well attended. The World Teachers' Conference was a wonderful experience and a successful week for all Friends of Waldorf Education departments.
