OlOn proudly introduces ‘ecuPolis‘, an innovative Schema of Work that reimagines early years education through the lens of complexity science and the timeless principles of Ancient Greek direct democracy.

Designed for young learners (ages 3-5), ”ecuPolis‘ aims to cultivate personal, social and political freedom, autonomy and autopoiesis within a contemporary perception of active citizenship.

What is ‘ecuPolis’?

ecuPolis‘ is more than an educational program; it is a transformative journey that nurtures the citizen of both the City and the Kosmopolis.

By embracing symbiotic collaboration and rejecting linear social evolution, ecuPolis presents our social realities as interconnected plateaux within a complex system.

This schema fosters a holistic understanding of self and society, where each child learns to navigate the dynamics of a post-statocentric world.
