Loka is an inspiring and innovative small school in a remote and rural village in Bihar, North-India. At Loka everyone is welcome; children from different backgrounds and with different learning abilities study together. Besides equipping students with academic skills, Loka makes a difference by connecting with the local community, applying the learned to everyday life, integrating art and craft, creating awareness for planetary health and applying slow and reflective ways of learning. Rather than creating a model to be copied and pasted, Loka's school aspires to be an inspiring example of an education that is shaped to the natural ways of children's minds and hearts and relevant for both its local context and today's world. Loka's future dreams include a Maker Space and a new kind of University that provides personalised courses inspired by best practices of all times and places. Loka aspires to be a centre for learning that equips students to create the kind of world we would all like to live -on village scale.
