General Information

LärOlika - “Learning across differences”

Through conversations, we build bridges across divides between different parts of society.

We create new meetings and conversations between people with different experiences, perspectives and challenges. Thus everyone learns something new and bridges are built between people in different parts of society.

Mission and Objectives

The reason LärOlika started is that we believe that meetings and dialogues between people with different perspectives is important for change to happen – both on a personal level and in society as a whole. However, today most people have very few opportunities to meet individuals from other communities, since society is not structured to enable interaction across cultures/disciplines/generations.

Main Projects / Activities

Courses
Courses that target people with different backgrounds and interests for conversations to learn from each other. Each course is free of charge and consists of five meetings in different locations and with different themes. We provide process management - the participants bring the content, in conversations with each other.

 

Workshops
We hold specialized workshops for organizations and companies. We create new kinds of conversations and exchanges of experience where everyone, regardless of their role, contributes with their own thoughts and perspectives.

 

Tools and networks
Through the tens of thousands of unique conversations that LärOlika has created, we have also developed a variety of tools and methods to create the best possible conversations - and built a network of nearly a thousand individuals with very different roles in society.

 

Inspiration
95% of LärOlika participants get inspired to think in new ways! If you want some inspiration, please follow us on Facebook, on Instagram @larolikasamtal, or read our blog.

Tid: Onsdagen 10 maj, kl 18.00 – 20.00 (fika från 17.30)

LärOlika möten handlar om att prata med nya människor och om nya frågor – ibland på nya sätt. Att spela spel är ett sätt att möta varandra. Vi kommer därför spela några enkla spel – spel som kan få dig att tänka till, och hjälpa till att skapa ett nytt samtal. Inga förkunskaper behövs, och du är lika välkommen om du älskar eller avskyr spel, är van eller aldrig spelat något!

Vi hoppas på nya perspektiv kring spelande – och nya möten genom spel och samtal. Vi kommer hämta inspiration från Världskulturmuseets nya utställning om spel till både samtalen och spelandet.

Det kostar inget att delta, men vi hoppas att alla som deltar bidrar med sina tankar, sitt lyssnande, och spelande!

General Information

LIFE-LINK FRIENDSHIP SCHOOLS ASSOCIATION IS A NON-PROFIT ORGANISATION, BASED IN SIGTUNA, SWEDEN. IT PROMOTES COOPERATION BETWEEN AND EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT (ESD) OF STUDENTS ALL OVER THE WORLD.

Life-Link’s philosophy is based on the 3Cs: Care for Yourself, Care for Others and Care for Nature, using insights from natural and social sciences.

Life-Link is neither politically nor religiously aligned and was established in 1987. It has international contacts in more than 60 countries.

Life-Link is organised at three levels:

  1. Classes, committees or clubs at schools supported by teachers, parents and other committed people.

  2. National and Regional coordinators and advisers

  3. Head office and Board at Sigtunaskolan Humanistiska Läroverket (SSHL ), Sigtuna, Sweden.

The homepage address is: www.lifelinkschools.org

Mission and Objectives

The Life-Link program supports students undertaking actions for peace and sustainability for their school and/or for their community, while sharing their actions with schools all over the world. 

A Life-Link action, in the future called Action, is a minor project, meant to:

  • Help the school or the community to become more sustainable and to promote peace

  • Give students a sense of higher purpose and direction in life

  • Help foster intercultural and international relations

This independent education program was initiated in 1987 by Hans Levander, a medical doctor in Uppsala, Sweden.  He was at the forefront of a world-wide movement for peace and the elimination of nuclear weapons.

Since then, the program has been extended also to include Education for Sustainable Development (ESD).

Currently, 106 schools in 36 countries are participating.

The rich experience of students and schools over the past years shows that this program has brought hope, inspiration and optimism for the future into the school’s curriculum.

An Action means carrying out a practical project under one of the following headings called the 3Cs:

  • Care for Yourself

  • Care for Others

  • Care for Nature

Main Projects / Activities

Peace actions performed by youth-teachers-parents-community experts. Life-Link serves with 50 proposed actions, each with a short guideline in the Life-Link Manual. Main language is English, and translations have been done into Arabic, Russian and Spanish.

The peace action reports, some with photos, introduced on the www.life-link.org are a source for inspiration to other schools world-wide, sometimes leading to contacts/exchanges between schools.
