Anthroposophy |
| The concept of Camphill Ghent grew out of the need for greater care for the population of Camphill Village, including aging adults with developmental disabilities as well as long-term co-workers who have lived, worked and socialized together for years.
However, the concept soon expanded in recognition of the greater need among both the broader anthroposophical community and others from the surrounding area for a community-based, rural setting for elders |
Anthroposophy is a human-oriented, spiritual, world view that reflects and speaks to the basic questions of humanity and nature, addressing our needs to relate both spiritually, artistically and scientifically to the world, as we evolve towards freedom through inner responsibility for ourselves and others. Care inspired by Anthroposophy is based on the premise that each person carries a destiny worthy of fulfillment in body, soul and spirit.Anthroposophical Society of North America. |
