Supporting change-makers is one of the missions of International Women's Day. Today, we take a moment to reflect on Maria Montessori's remarkable accomplishments as a trailblazer, a champion for children's rights, and a groundbreaking educator.

Montessori education is now present in over 25,000 schools worldwide, spanning more than 140 countries. Her legacy extends beyond the education of children to encompass the holistic development of the entire human being, with her approach to education still having a significant impact today.

Starting off the New Year with some inspiration from AMI Primary Trainer, Ginni Sackett. She goes on to say “A second truth emerges from the first and it is equally discoverable. Children will learn life affirming values based in love as easily and as readily as they learn life-destructive values of hatred. These are truths which will change the world as we know it. Maria Montessori dedicated her life to these truths-not as theory; not as belief; but as scientifically proven realities. These truths lie at the core of our Montessori work; they represent the global view of our individual practice”

This is what fuels our work at AMI (Canada). The knowledge that in this very moment there are guides, administrators, assistants, support staff, and trainers, working together towards a collective goal of peace. We’re grateful for each and every one of you. Together we will “change the world as we know it”. 🕊️

You can find Ms. Sackett’s article, “A Sharp Call to the Public Conscience: Maria Montessori and the Social Party of the Child”, in the 2013 AMI Journal.
