Humanist Kids is a non-profit, research-based educational organization based in Canada, dedicated to promoting a culture of peace for children, families, educators, and communities. Their core mission is to advocate for and implement progressive, creative, and inclusive education that serves the best interests of all children.
At the heart of Humanist Kids is a strong commitment to humanistic education and the development of humanistic schools across Canada. They believe that traditional behaviorist and cognitivist models of education are no longer sufficient to meet the evolving needs of students in today’s rapidly changing world.
Through a humanistic approach, Humanist Kids strives to create educational environments in which students are active participants in shaping their own learning experiences. In their model, education is not a top-down process, but rather a collaborative one—students, teachers, parents, school leaders, educational experts, and community members all work together to co-design curricula and shape the learning journey.
This inclusive and life-based model ensures that education is deeply rooted in the real lives and aspirations of students and contributes meaningfully to building a better, more equitable world.
Humanist Kids is proud to work alongside a network of international advisors—experts and advocates of democratic, peaceful, and human-centered schools—who bring global perspectives and deep experience to their efforts.
They welcome collaboration with all schools, educators, and educational movements that are aligned with democratic, peaceful, and humanistic values and are open to partnerships that seek to empower children, transform education, and contribute to a more compassionate and just society.
