About
About the campus
Children learn from family, adult conduct and daily life, not only from classrooms.
Abhibhavak means responsible guardian. The campus puts parents and families at the centre of education, alongside study, dialogue, agriculture and community life.
The aim is people who can understand themselves, keep fulfilling relationships and take part responsibly in society and nature.
