Int'l Kolisko Conference: Meeting the Needs of Children Today!

February 14 2010 to February 18 2010

Dr. Michaela Glöckler will be the keynote speaker for this conference intended for doctors, nurses, therapists, teachers, educators and interested parents. Dr. Eugen Kolisko was the school doctor for the first Waldorf School.

This event is sponsored by Honolulu Waldorf School, Anthroposophical Society in Hawai’i, and the Medical Section of the Goetheanum.

Kolisko conferences explore the ways in which therapeutic medicine and Waldorf educational practice can mutually fructify the ways that teachers, doctors and therapists work with and understand the growth and development of children.

• How can we meet children with true and accurate assessment, diagnosis, medical interventions, and educational programs that are integrated in a holistic manner?

• How can the knowledge available to modern naturally-extended medicine be made available to teachers so that they can better work as artists of education, helping the development of thinking, feeling and will in children?

• Can the work of the classroom teacher help the ways that medical practitioners work with and understand children?

• Specifically how are we meeting the needs of children through education and medicine?
