Escola

In Valencian, escola (school) comes from the latin word schola and refers to both a place where knowledge is taught and a place where knowledge is developed with the teacher's methodology. The school model proposed is mixed, based on dissemination and training associated to a workshop or a seminar, with fewer students as an ideal for our approach.

Europea

The initiative aims to contribute to a space of reflection and training with the geographic and cultural area which we are part of. We want to highlight the necessity to stablish relations between projects, Chairs, organisms and people trying to bring closer the cultural products and identities from Europe.

Pensament

Disctionaries describe pensament (thought) as the actions and change in reality brought by our reasoning: throughts are what the mind produces willingly from a rational order or unwillingy from external stimuli. Thought is cumulative and it develops throught the time since it works with problem-solving strategies.
