Claire Boonstra, keynote-speaker at Dutch Dalton Conference

"Do understand me very clearly – the education I had, including the good and the bad sides of it, is what shaped me, is what made me become me. But looking ahead at all the changes we are going to and the challenges we are facing as a society, as humanity and with our planet – I feel it is more than worthwhile for all future generations to seriously assess and change the

system we have created, and change it on a very fundamental level". (From 'The purpose of education')
