This book is so necessary right now. That the way school is structured comes from a bygone era more suited to a time of assembly line style industrial production is very apparent. A regenerative mindset that embraces complexity, and her explanations of the complicated mechanistic thinking we are trained in at school versus a way to think about complex issues were a couple of my stand out takeaways from the book. The world is in need of a paradigm shift and it starts with the way we educate our children. As she says, ‘Our global problems emerged from our current ways of thinking. Our current ways of thinking cannot fix them.’

The title of the book captured me, as I’d just seen a documentary showing students in various cities across Germany, going on the street, protesting about their school system not suiting anymore. This book starts describing a great example of how a regenerative school works and highlights we need many people, in many places to offer great examples of how this new form works better than the system we currently have.
What I like about the book is how the road to get there is clarified in various steps and in a way I can use it myself to propose other changes in our societal system. Like moving from globalisation to localisation, changing our economic system … I’m writing this review just returning from a climate barcamp, which is a format where all attendants are talking on the same level, we all learn from each other, just like this should be in schools. We need a change not only in schools but in society and the tips of how to disrupt views and bring in curiosity, to reflect and to shift paradigms are great.
But we do have to start with schools, as we are all formed by “beliefs” put in place by the system we live in. I’m currently finalising a certified coaching training with the aim of helping people get over depressions, put in place by “old beliefs”. Children are the foundation of the future and there we should start to put things right.
