Resumen

Karl König was the initiator and co-founder of the Camphill Movement, now a worldwide co-operation of more than 100 communities, that are concerned with curative education, inclusive village settlements and social work inspired by anthroposophy. This could be considered the main-work of Karl König. Because the Movement can be seen as an impulse of holistic therapeutic community-building this faculty also includes aspects of many other fields: from medicine and education to art, agriculture and religious life. The volumes of the New Edition listed here are more specific to the Movement itself including its spiritual background.

The Camphill Movement, founded in 1940 in Scotland, consists of organizations, initiatives, and communities that work associatively to develop inclusive social and community practices across eight geographic regions. The Camphill Movement is affiliated to the Anthroposophical Society and has links with many other anthroposophical organizations as well as organizations active in the disabilities field and in inclusive community building.

The Camphill Movement Group

coordinates and encourages networking and association across the Camphill Movement, fostering the development of inclusive, social and community practices.

THE CAMPHILL CLARION
Published by Camphill Foundation

Did you know that there are more than 100 Camphillcommunities around the globe? From the original founding community in Aberdeen, Scotland, the Camphill Movement has spread across five continents: Europe, Asia, Africa, and North and South America. While communities differ in size and form, they all carry the Camphill impulse — to honor the dignity in people of all abilities.

In this edition of the Camphill Clarion, we are pleased to introduce you to some of these communities. As you travel around the world with us — from communities in Ireland and Lithuania, to Vietnam and India, to our newest communities in Rwanda and Colombia — each destination will look familiar! There are farms and schools, day programs and villages, artistic endeavors, meaningful work, lasting relationships, and care for the earth.

And like our communities here in North America, our international friends are shining the Camphill light into the world. Your support makes it all possible. Thank you for helping us to grow, strengthen, and safeguard the Camphill way of life here at home and around the world.

The Camphill Movement Group

The Camphill Movement Group is made up of delegates appointed by each region, based on the processes and ways of working established in that region. It also includes a Core Group, with cross-regional composition that coordinates the work of the Movement Group. The Camphill Movement Group comes together annually, normally in May, for a period of several days of meetings and associative working.

There is no worldwide legal body or association for the Camphill Movement as a whole: instead, relationships, exchange and shared activities involving people and communities across the regions evolve a global movement with a shared vision that is expressed in diverse and ever-changing forms.

INSIDERS / OUTSIDERS

Refugees from Nazi Europe and their Contribution to British Culture


Insiders/Outsiders is a nationwide arts festival taking place in Britain from March 2019 to March 2020 to celebrate refugees from Nazi Europe and their contribution to British culture. The Karl König Institute is collaborating with the festival preparers, The Mount Camphill Community and The Daniel Dunlop Legacy (represented by Sarri Tapales) to create an event within the Festival on March 15 in Rudolf Steiner Haus, London. At this event we will present about Karl König and the founding of the Camphill Movement.


In connection with this we are also inviting all to join us in The Mount on May 17 when the Mount celebrates 50 years since their own founding. At this event there will be exhibitions and talks but also within the frame of an open day a chance to get to know a Camphill community. There will also be a performance of Karl König's play for Good Friday which has very strong connections to the theme of oppression and refugees.
