Synopsis

Rewilding Education calls for a radical, system-wide reinvention of education as an adaptable ecosystem; less predictable and measurable, but far more suitable for shaping the adults of tomorrow.

By encouraging us to transform how we think about education in what is left of the twenty-first century, Hilary Cremin connects directly with educators, parents, young people and policymakers to share a vision for healthy education settings and societies that nurture both human flourishing and sustainable ecosystems. Full of ideas about what rewilding might look like when applied to education, Hilary Cremin evidences how education has been, and can be, successfully rewilded in schools and classrooms, including case studies from unexpected places like Kerala in India, where literacy rates exceed those in the United States.

By combining academic research, poetry and examples from around the world, the book will inspire the next generation of educators, decision-makers and families to take practical steps towards the education our children need and deserve.
