The Biophilia Project

Biophilia Project aims to drive innovation in education by promoting rights-respecting practices, child-led play, and self-directed education to improve children's autonomy and well-being.

Their philosophy extends these principles to the adult world, fostering environments where all individuals can thrive, learn, and connect with nature.
