Welcome on the our Comenius Project Website

Jan Amos Comenius lived from 1592 to 1670 and he was a Czech theologian, humanist and democratic educator. He founded a scientific system of education and campaign a institutional four-class system in which "all taught everything". See Wikipedia for more informations...

What is the importance of Comenius for Europe?

Comenius quoted:

“We are all citizens of one world. To hate a man, because he was born somewhere else, because he speaks another language, because he thinks different of things, because he knows less or more than you know, what a misconception! We are all people and therefore not perfect. We all need help. Nobody is without obligations towards others.”

This proves that Comenius, already in the seventeenth century, aimed at good relations and mutual understanding between peoples and nations inside and outside Europe.
