Episode Summary
What is a solidarity school, and how does it differ from other types of educational initiatives? What is its relationship with the public school system, and how does it operate in terms of teaching content and democratic decision-making?
The episode also explores its links with similar initiatives abroad and presents the Solidarity School of Mesopotamia in Moschato, Athens—the largest initiative of its kind—which operates within a Time Bank network and through joint, reciprocal assemblies of teachers, parents and teenagers.
It further examines the establishment and development of the Solidarity Schools Coordinating Network, as well as its objectives and activities.
