Welcome to the
Montessori Europe 2027 Congress
01–03 October 2027
School Visits: Thursday 30 September 2027
We are delighted to invite you to Frankfurt, Germany, for the Montessori Europe 2027 Congress – an international gathering where Montessori education engages with the realities of a rapidly changing world.
Building on the momentum of our 2026 Congress in Riga, where we rediscovered the power of connection and strengthened our collective voice, we now move forward with renewed purpose. The launch of the Adolescent Voice Collective marked an important step in affirming our commitment to education across all planes of development from the young child to the emerging adult. In 2027, we carry this work forward.
Taking place from 01 – 03 October 2027 in Frankfurt, this Congress brings together educators, researchers, and practitioners from across Europe and beyond, united by a shared commitment to supporting human development through Montessori’s enduring principles.
This year’s theme, “The Courage to Continue: Following the Child, Reimagining the Future,”
calls us to reflect deeply on what it means to remain both grounded and responsive in our practice.
