International Freedom in Education Day (IFED)

September 15th, 2007

Dear Home-educating Friends and Supporters of Freedom in Education,

An International Freedom in Education Day (IFED), an idea originating this year in France, is proposed for Saturday, September 15th, 2007.

The aim is to promote the idea of the importance of free choice in education, and to spread information about the alternative ways of learning that are available, or are being fought for in various countries.

The focus will be on Home Education, but we also welcome alternative and free schools to take part in this global event.

The interest ist gathering in Europe and internationally. Events related to the IFED may take place throughout the month September, but on the 15th, we plan to have many events in different countries all over the world, celebrating Freedom in Education.

One idea is to launch hundreds of balloons, carrying postcards with slogans promoting Freedom in Education. A logo and posters are being prepared and will soon be available.

In Paris, a giant picnic on the theme of home education is planned, preceded by a press conference on September 10th.

In London, a Home Education Fair is planned. For more details please contact: homeeducationfair en hotmail.com

In Vienna, an evening event on September 7th, will be dedicated for a discussion of Freedom in Education, and the practice of home education and unschooling.

During the week preceding or following September 15th, there will be a gathering in front of the European Parliament in Strasbourg. This gives a possibility to highlight the topic "Human Rights and Home Education".

French home educators are creating a website for the Freedom in Education Day. There we will publish all information and/or links to events on or around the 15th of September (conferences, gatherings, education fairs, etc.), where ever they may take place and in whatever language, so please send us your projected events.

We will also post links to other websites and announcements in other countries. If your native language is not English, French, German, Italian or Spanish, please send us a short English description and in your native language, of your event that you would like placed on the website.

So please tell us about your planned events, no matter how small it may seem! We'll be great in numbers!
