Participate in Asia Montessori Conference 2025

Theme: Harmonizing National Culture with the Montessori Approach

The 11th Asia Montessori Conference invites educators, researchers, and thought leaders to submit proposals for Scholarly Contributions and Practical Action Plans for presentation at this year’s event. We welcome submissions from all who are committed to scientific pedagogy and the development of the human potential — in the true spirit of Dr Maria Montessori.

 

This year's theme, "Harmonizing National Culture with the Montessori Approach," explores the dynamic interplay between cultural identity and child development. We encourage submissions that celebrate diversity, ground theory in practice, and offer insight into authentic, transformative education.

What is the Main Objective?

Our goal at this year’s conference is to create a dynamic platform where educators come together not only to share knowledge but to put theory into action.

As we explore “Harmonizing National Culture with the Montessori Approach”, we invite you to join this movement—either by presenting your work to an international audience or by submitting a real-life classroom project that reflects the heart of the theme.

Whether you're an academic, a researcher, or a hands-on practitioner, there's a way for you to contribute.
