List of participating Camphill and Garvald Communities
This course brings together participants from 9 Camphill Communities, as well as members from the Garvald communities, creating a rich and diverse network of learners.
The course is not only about acquiring knowledge—it’s also a space for meaningful connection, reciprocal learning, and community-building. You’ll meet people in a variety of roles across different communities, and you’ll quickly find there’s always something to learn from one another.
This page is here to help you connect with fellow participants and community members. If you’re interested in visiting another community or starting a collaboration, please reach out to the relevant tutor or faculty member in that location.
