Acting as ambassadors of A.S.Neill’s world famous philosophies and Summerhill School’s 100-years of practice in educating the whole child, our aim is to facilitate and support innovative initiatives around the world, working towards or already implementing the above values within childrearing, education and society.

By advocating the importance of childhood as a critical period of time for all of us and consequently for the future of humanity, we also intend to facilitate research that explores these ideals within the field of humanities and social sciences and can inform action towards a just, healthy and sustainable world.
