Mont-Libre Agile Learning Centre (Mont-Libre) is an independent inclusive multi-age bilingual democratic learning centre servicing children who are registered for homeschooling in Quebec, Canada.[1] [2] Mont-Libre Agile Learning Centre is part of the alternative education movement and is the first democratic learning centre to be established in the province of Quebec. Mont-Libre is located in the borough of La Petite Patrie, Montreal. The centre was founded in response to the desperate need for a space to support children and their families who do not fit in the traditional school system. The founders of Mont-Libre, Marc-Alexandre Prud'homme and others, also founded the Quebec Network of Democratic Schools (RÉDAQ).[3] [4] [5]
Philosophy and educational structure
[edit ]Mont-Libre prioritises self-directed learning, non-violent communication, transformative justice, democratic decision-making processes, a love of learning and community involvement.[6]
Mont-Libre decision-making processes are organised via democratic assemblies held every week.[7] Mont-Libre community members are free to explore their own interests as long as their interests do not encroach negatively on others.[8]
