testaENSWAP1

During the spring internal meeting of the steering committee in Graz, it was thought that it was appropriate that: I (international) NSWAP should be changed to: E (european) NSWAP .

In reality, since the beginning of our existence in 2008, only EUROPEAN participants have attended, quite logically of course, even more so since the meetings have all taken place in different european countries.

Therefore our network is now called: European Network of Steiner Waldorf Parents (ENSWaP).

However, it must be noted that Enswap is open to ALL PARENTS (and friends) of Steiner Waldorf schools worldwide! Hoping that all our friends will remember this and join as!
We will be more than happy to welcome ALL!

2007: The International Waldorf Parents Network (IWPN)
During the meeting in Prague in 2006, it was decided to restructure IWPA into a network association. This was decided, because few countries had established national parents associations at the time, and a network in which individual parents participate was believed to be a better approach.

During the meeting in Prague it was also decided to establish a website at www.waldorfparents.net. SFF (Norway) volunteered to create the website.

After the closure of EFRSWSP, the parents associations in Sweden and Norway initiated the establishment of the International Waldorf Parent Association (IWPA) in 2003.

The history of the former European Federation of Rudolf Steiner Waldorf School Parents (EFRSWSP) (1992-2001):
In August 1992 an initiative was launched in Norrkping, Sweden to form an European parents association to cooperate with the European Council of Rudolf Steiner Waldorf Schools (ECSWS). Members of EFRSWSP had to be delegated from national parents associations in countries where they resided.
