Atlas of Learner-Centered Education

Explore real-world models that cultivate autonomy, responsibility, and learner agency

A practical and inspiring journey for founders, educators, and families who want to create, transform, or understand new ways of learning. 

Do you feel that another kind of education is possible, but you do not know where to begin?

  • Maybe you have a clear vision, but you are still missing the structures to bring it to life.
  • Maybe you want to create an educational project, but you find it difficult to explain how it would work.
  • Maybe you come from formal education and need new sources of inspiration.
  • Or maybe you are already supporting children, young people, or families, but you are looking for new ways to cultivate autonomy, responsibility, and participation.

The Atlas of Learner-Centered Education was created to help you expand your possibilities, compare real-world models, and design your own path with more clarity.

“If you have a calling for education, but you also perceive a dissonance: this is a journey that will help you work with your values, go through that dissonance, and discover what you want. And finally, to get there!” — Sifaan, founder of Kinder Republic

What is the Atlas?

The Atlas is an online program with unlimited access that brings together models, interviews, tools, and resources for educational transformation.

It is a map to explore different ways of designing educational experiences centered on agency, community, and lifelong learning.

Throughout the journey, you will discover democratic, agile, and sociocratic schools, self-directed learning models, personalized curricula, socioconstructivist projects, experiential learning communities, and pilots within public schools.

As you move through the program, you will use the Learning Community Canvas to integrate ideas and design your own educational model step by step.

The Atlas is for you if…

You are creating, participating in, or dreaming of a transformative educational project. It is especially useful for:

  • Founders of alternative schools and learning communities.
  • Leaders of holistic, formal, or non-formal educational projects.
  • Families exploring homeschooling or learning communities.
  • Educators who want to expand their options and learn from other pedagogies.
  • Social innovators who are unlearning and creating new educational models.

“The program is like a journey that takes us through different forms of alternative education around the world. It helped me define my project and gave me clear, structured tools to make it happen.” — Adela, founder, Casa Espiral

A journey in 4 stations:

“It helped me reconsider my teaching practice and reaffirm my understanding of education. I have been able to discover other schools that are trying to respond to a changing world through approaches such as democratic education and sociocracy. Observing people working in these environments has been an invaluable experience.” — Julia, primary school teacher, Alma Forest School

The Learning Community Canvas: your integration map

The Atlas includes the Learning Community Canvas, a visual tool to design, review, or communicate your educational model on a single page. It will help you move from inspiration to clarity, so you can build your own model by integrating learnings from different methodologies.

Do you want to do it on your own or with community?

You can access the Atlas as a self-guided program and move at your own pace. But if you are creating or transforming a learning community, you may also need support, coaching, feedback, and shared accountability.

That is why you can combine the Atlas with Ubuntu Mastermind, our community for founders, education leaders, and innovators. There, you can share progress, receive feedback, explore real challenges, and keep nurturing your project alongside others who are also creating new initiatives.

Ubuntu Mastermind members receive a 30% discount on the Atlas.
