Activities of our movement between summer 2012 and summer 2014
Meetings
On national level we had in November 2012 an extraordinary general meeting in form of a workshop in order to commit our future contents and the form of out movement. The result was the annual general meeting in November 2013. The next general meeting will take place in November 2015.
On regional level there are meetings with practical work dealing with political questions and theoretical teaching and practical exercises.
Symposiums
The symposium in 2013 took place in the Reinhardswaldschule in March with 72 participants and the theme “tension learning”. The participants sit in each other’s lectures. The next symposium will take place in November 2016.

Central office
At the end of June in 2013 our long-standing Managing-Director Gesa Meisen finished her work. At the same moment the central office moved – see the fact-sheet.
An agreement with the “Verein für ganzheitliches Lernen” (association for holistic learning) was reached which since leads the office.
Magazine and website
Our magazine " questions and tests " still appears 4 times a year. At the moment we think about changes in relation to digitization. After that, we may no longer have as many paper copies in the future and all articles will be available on the homepage.
Our website www.freinet-kooperative.de is constantly evolving.
