During the pandemic, Carla Konta saw homeschooling become a viable option in Croatia. With the support of other families and a global homeschooling network, she co-founded a homeschooling organization that is seeking to legalize homeschooling in her country. In this episode, Carla joins Kevin Boden (HSLDA Director of Global Outreach) to share her vision for homeschooling to be legally recognized in Croatia.—They also examine the perspectives of other homeschooling families, who look to the United States as an example of freedom in educational choice. Now, with the Croatian Ministry of Education launching a pilot program for homeschooling, Croatian families are one step closer to securing this freedom!
“Education is changing worldwide. And this is a process that is going on in many countries and [parents] have many dissatisfactions [with the school system]. . . . We don’t have to wait for this change. To have this international community means that you can . . . work on solving the problems now.”— Carla Konta
