This survey, in words and pictures, of Camphill life throughout the world, helps to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the Camphill movement. Founded by Karl Konig and guided by the revolutionary educational ideas of Rudolf Steiner, the movement has grown from one small group near Aberdeen to a worldwide network of over seventy homes, schools, and villages on four continents.
It is based on the idea of a caring community, offering a sheltered yet useful life to those too handicapped to live or work successfully elsewhere.
