VD-6 Disrupting Gendered Mindsets: Walker’s Capabilities Approach Program
The Ethel Walker School reimagines education by teaching to the whole student with her simultaneous identities fully engaged. Our adaptation of the Capabilities Approach focuses on disrupting gendered mindsets by recognizing freedom and social justice as primary goals, as suggested by economist Amartya Sen. Students bolster one another while developing this constellation of capabilities to realize their full potentiality. We hope to inspire lively discussion about the future of education with this new model.
