ABSTRACT
What will the world be like for our children and grandchildren? The answer largely depends on our vision for education and our commitment to putting our vision into action.
For over two centuries, educational reformers such as Johann Pestalozzi, Maria Montessori, John Dewey and Paolo Freire have called for an education that prepares young people for democracy rather than authoritarianism, peace rather than war, caring rather than cruelty.2 Our task, and it is an urgent task, is to take their work further.
