Gerhard Jäger will hold a workshop for educators, teachers and professors from the education system, around good practices of artistic and cultural mediation, which can inspire an interdisciplinary teaching, in which art is integrated in all areas of the curriculum, and the teaching method it becomes much more artistic and personal regardless of the subject taught.

In a context where children and young people are inundated with visual and digital stimuli, another important aspect is the promotion of media and image literacy. Art and culture can encourage dialogue as well as processes of conscious looking and listening.

Because places are limited, participants can register via email until November 24: minitremu (at) gmail.com
