How much do I need to know about Paulo Freire? |
|
You do not usually need to know anything about Paulo Freire to participate in our programmes since most of our programmes are not about Freire as such but simply inspired by his methodology. The exception is when we do occasional workshops or study programmes on Paulo Freire's work in particular, when some background reading would be helpful. If you sign up for a Paulo Freire workshop you will be advised about recommended reading. |

How can I support your work? |
|
We welcome whatever support you can give, including moral support. You may wish to become a member of the Freire Institute, join one of our learning programmes or other activities, sign up for our newsletter or contact us to see about volunteering your time. |
|
Are you a registered charity? |
|
No, we are a social enterprise with a remit to serve the community. |
|
Does it cost anything to register? |
|
Basic registration is free but you can become a full member for a small fee. Full membership gives you added benefits as well as helping to sustain and develop our work. |
|
Do you have a regular newsletter? |
|
Yes. If you register on our website you can opt in to our email newsletter. Basic registration is free but we would encourage you to consider taking out a paid membership. |
|
Do I have to pay to attend your programmes? |
|
Many of our short events are free although we do charge for longer programmes. We try to reduce fees wherever possible for those on low incomes. |
|
Are you a Christian organization? |
|
We have a broadly Christian ethos although much of the content of our courses is not specifically Christian. We do not seek to proselytize and our programmes are open to people of all faiths and those of none. However, we do offer a programme tailored more particularly for Christians and church-related workers called Inspire. |
