Montessori Congress 2026

Adolescent Summit

A transformative international gathering for Montessori youth

The Adolescent Summit of the International Montessori Congress 2026 is a unique and transformative experience of encounter, creation, and legacy. Adolescents from around the world will come together to explore identity, engage in intercultural dialogue, and co-create proposals that respond ethically and responsibly to today’s global challenges.

For seven days, adolescents will form an international Montessori community, connecting across cultures while immersing themselves in the vibrant nature, science, and culture of Yucatán, México. Through hands-on learning and collaboration, participants will strengthen their leadership and global citizenship.
