Anthroposophical Initiatives in India

Mumbai, 10 May (NNA) - A three week residential Waldorf teacher training seminar is taking place in Khandala near Mumbai, India, in May. Organised by the coordinator of “Anthroposophical Initiatives in India”, Aban Bana, the seminar is intended for teachers and interested people from India and Nepal. The course will be taught by teachers from India and abroad, including a representative from the teacher training seminar in Edinburgh, Scotland. It will cover basic anthroposophy, an introduction to Waldorf education as well as artistic activities and practical work. About sixty participants are expected to attend the seminar.

A separate course for German-speaking people who are interested in knowing more about the culture, religions, art and traditions of India has been organised for the Christmas period at the turn of the millennium. The two-week course in Udwada, near Mumbai, has been arranged in collaboration with the “Ruespe” organisation in Germany. The course will include artistic and practical work, visits to various places in the surroundings and meetings with villagers.
