Collaboration

Making a change together

Lotus works very closely together with Zonnelicht, the childcare and after school care on our campus, where training has been provided for years on the development of young children in various areas. Lotus arose partly from the desire to share this knowledge and experience more widely.
In addition, we stay in touch with international projects with a similar mission. For example, schools, training centers and Master Units where work is done on sustainable communities and integration of ecology, socio-emotional well-being and future-proof economy.

Childcare center Zonnelicht

Every day, child care center Zonnelicht in Den Bosch inspires children in their discovery of themselves. The goal? Happy and loving children who are in touch with themselves, others and the world.
Every child has the potential to grow into a responsible, self-aware, hopeful, empathetic and creative human being who can contribute to the world; a child who is aware of their own unique talents and abilities.

Campo Divino – Argentina

Campo Divino started 10 years ago as the dream of one man and his dog. It now has several vegetable and herb gardens, provides its own water and energy, and plays a role in the local community. School children come to learn about this way of life, volunteers come from all over the world to participate and be inspired, and a local food network is being built. The homegrown herbs are also turned into essential oils with beneficial effects.
Kuntur keeps us informed of developments at Campo Divino through photos and video calls. He also comes to Europe from time to time to inspire us and others to take steps toward living differently.

The River School – Australia

The River School in Australia bases its education on the principles of Neohumanist education, with a strong focus on connection, compassion and respect. Children are introduced at an early age to the benefits of meditation and yoga. They also learn how they can use their own talents to make a difference in the world. The environment inspires sustainable living and thinking, with an organic vegetable garden, rainwater harvesting, solar panels and more.

Valley of Bliss in Portugal aims to serve as a model and educational center for sustainable and regenerative living in the 21st century. The site includes 50 acres of wild forests, organic farmland, and wild fruit trees. You will also find camping sites and an activity hall.
