I grew up in Auroville, and when I was 18 years old I moved to Sweden where my parents have their roots. I had my own three children early, and with them became involved in both running a farm kindergarten/afterschool centre and later a Montessori kindergarten. Education became a life journey, both influenced by my own education in Auroville, as well as a growing curiosity and responsibility for raising my own children Zasha, Nikita and Mohini. I started a long research journey trying to understand the practice of Integral Education. Today I have more than 25 years of experience working with children in government schools in Sweden and in Auroville. I pursued two bachelor degrees in education, both addressing education from different aspects. From areas like pedagogy, didactics, child development, study of learning, self-directed and child-led learning, to subject focus in mathematics and science, global education (UNESCO), a thesis of freedom and integrity, and another on implementation Integral Education in TLC. I studied all the Montessori trainings to cover work with children age 0-18. With a MS in Education for Sustainable Development, I then furthered my knowledge in education to deepen in all areas of society, with focus on human transformation in a societal and global perspective. My thesis looked at education from a new light, to serve the evolution of human consciousness. Combining theoretical studies with real life practices with children has been my tool to be in a constant movement of growing my own awareness of what this new education strives towards. I moved back to Auroville in 2013, working with networking in education, supporting teachers in Auroville schools, and working with schools around India offering training and workshops. Since 2014 I am a part of TLC, a real-life laboratory where I deepen in action research based on everyday educational practices. What I bring to TLC is my love, passion and dedication. Through my experience I also have knowledge of structures and systems needed to shift educational values. I look to have both the birds view of the whole community, and well as understanding the individual children, reflecting on both individual and collective processes from a research perspective. I am an observer, philosopher and alchemist, experimenting in the present but also dreaming about future realisations
