Mindfulness is a technique which involves paying attention to the present moment (mind, body and surroundings), without judgement. There is no right or wrong. Ok, but what is the connection between this approach and bonding? Midfulness helps you to be kinder towards ourselves and, consequently, to others. It promotes awareness and acceptance. When we reconise the other we make connections (bonding) and create a healthy and fruitful learning environment.

Enjoy the small treat that Cultura Inglesa prepared for you with lots of love! Also, take the time to visit our sponsors' lounge, do lots of networking and, above all... have fun!

The Project "A Local Perspective of Global Issues" emerged from observations in English classes, aiming to integrate knowledge, skills, and citizenship education. It promotes research as an educational principle to foster a scientific culture while learning English. Students engage in solving global issues for their local community using English as a Lingua Franca, guided by the CLIL approach and educational standards like UNESCO's (SDG-EDS). Despite challenges, this approach enhances linguistic and communicative understanding and nurtures scientific culture since childhood.
