Campus Vivant’e
On our High Atlas Tour we will have the possibility to visit the holistic educational institute Campus Vivant’e in Ait Bouguemez. Campus Vivant’e creates perspective for young people in the High Atlas region of Morocco so that they can live self-determined lives and find their own meaningful place in society.
The école vivante primary school and the collège vivant’e secondary school provides around 80 children and young people from all social classes with a comprehensive, future-oriented, high-quality education in their remote homeland. Since 2015, children with hearing difficulties have been integrated into everyday school life.
Our educational approach is based on the conscious experiencing of integrated knowledge. Since 2017, the extensive campus grounds have been cultivated according to the principles of permaculture. The school garden serves as a different place of learning in which we bring together theoretical knowledge with practical activities. The pupils thus learn to recognise the links and are made aware of their responsibility towards their direct living space.
We see education as a life-long process. This is why we offer further education to our employees and to the valley inhabitants. Every person grows with their daily tasks and campus vivant’e offers the space and support to do so.
