(2026, March 17), Capacitating Leadership & Bienvivance: Inner Resource Development for Outer Transformations and Regenerative Education, Towards Inclusive Excellence and ‘Flowrishing’, International Seminar on School Leadership, 16–18 March 2026, Strasbourg, France]

This presentation proposes to examine the paradigms and practices of educational leadership through the lens of capacitating leadership, where its role in supporting and valuing individuals and collectives inner resources contributes to bienvivance and advances regenerative education and inclusive excellence. In a context where schools must combine equity, inclusivity, innovation, and regeneration, it seeks to show how the development of the inner resources, emotional, relational, and reflective, particularly the emotional capital, of educational actors can become the driving force behind profound and collective transformation through capacitation (process of capabilities conversion into competencies to act). This presentation will illustrate how schools can go beyond sustainability by adopting governance style and educational practices that restore and revitalize people, relationships, and the learning environment within a regenerative education framework. It will explore how every member of the school community can contribute to the emergence of an inclusive, regenerative, and authentically humane excellence. After defining the various concepts and paradigms, this intervention will highlight concrete levers to foster bienvivance in schools: trust, agency, collaborative learning, quality of relationships, openness to diversity, and a shared sense of common destiny. Rooted in the dynamics of encounter and experience sharing, this presentation aims to enrich collective reflection on regenerative and renewed educational leadership capable of addressing current educational challenges and supporting the construction of a more just, inclusive, and humanly sustainable school, striving for zero human waste.
