“Futuring” | Co-Design Lab for the Future of Education
The Future of Education… but make it a meme.
Join us for a playful, interactive online workshop where we’ll use memes as a tool for imagining the future of education. Together with educators, innovators, change-makers, and curious minds, we’ll explore how humor and critique can spark new perspectives, create space for dialogue, and inspire collective visions.
Bring 1–2 of your favorite memes (education-related if possible, but any meme that made you laugh, think, or feel seen works). We’ll use them as starting points for conversation and co-creation.
Expect meme-sharing, creative co-design in breakout rooms, and a gallery of “postcards from the future” that capture our hopes, critiques, and visions for education’s tomorrow — possible, probable, preferred, and playful. Think of it as a futuring session with extra humor and creativity.

Art, Architecture, Creativity, and Pedagogy
A week in Reggio Emilia exploring how space, art, and pedagogy co-create learning.
Rooted in the Reggio Emilia approach, in this 5 day experience, we explore the intersection of art, architecture, and education looking into how environments shape learning, how creativity emerges in relation to space, and how pedagogy can become an act of design.
In this program, we bring together those who imagine, design, and inhabit places for learning — from schools and museums to libraries, playgrounds, ateliers, childcare centers, and community spaces. We welcome educators, school leaders, architects, artists, and cultural practitioners working across all levels, from early childhood to higher education.
More information coming soon. If you’re curious or already know you’d love to join us, drop us a message. We’d be happy to keep you in the loop.
The City as Atelier: Place-Based Learning
What if the city became the classroom?
This is a 5-day professional learning experience for educators who are curious about how environments shape learning — and what becomes possible when we begin to see the city as a classroom.
Rooted in the principles of place-based education and inspired by the city of Reggio Emilia, this program explores how schools can enter into dialogue with their surroundings, transforming everyday spaces into sites of inquiry, creativity, and connection.
This course is designed for educators, school leaders, learning designers, and anyone interested in reimagining education through the lens of place, community, and relational pedagogy.
Detailed program information will be shared soon.

The Reggio Approach and the Culture of the Atelier
Join us for a unique, immersive experience at the Loris Malaguzzi Centre, the heart of the globally renowned Reggio Emilia Approach. This inspiring day is dedicated to discovering the Culture of the Atelier — a cornerstone of Reggio pedagogy where creativity, research, and learning come alive.
Whether you're an educator, school leader, artist, or learning designer, this visit offers rare access to the atelieristas of Reggio Children and their deep insight into how spaces, materials, and aesthetics shape children’s thinking and learning.
We are an international group of educators from the Netherlands, Finland, Italy, Brazil, and the USA — and we’d like to open up to a few more curious and committed participants.
There are up to 8 spots available to join our group.
📩 If you’re interested, contact us for more information and booking details.
The Hundred Languages of Educators
Guided by the belief that children are rich with "a hundred languages," we invite all educators—teachers, school leaders, grade level coordinators, curriculum developers, and policy makers— to embark on a transformative and inspiring journey.
This course offers a unique opportunity to rediscover creativity, passion, and purpose in education. Through hands-on workshops, cultural immersion, and expert-guided visits to renowned institutions like the Centro Internazionale Loris Malaguzzi and REMIDA, we will explore innovative approaches to child-centered learning and holistic development.
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to learn and grow in one of the world’s most inspiring educational settings.
Inspiring Creativity Through Everyday Objects
What if you transformed a corner of your classroom into a ‘Found Objects Station,’ filled with everyday materials like bottle caps, cardboard, fabric scraps, yarn, buttons, and other recycled items?
What if that simple table of recycled materials became a hub for creativity and problem-solving?
Join us for a fun and meaningful conversation where we’ll be exploring how learning spaces can act as a "third teacher," inspiring creativity, collaboration, and meaningful learning experiences.
Building Bridges: Promoting Cultural Sensitivity and World Citizenship in CLIL Lessons
Building Bridges: Promoting Cultural Sensitivity and World Citizenship in CLIL Lessons
How does cultural sensitivity help us become better global citizens?
In today’s interconnected world, students need more than language proficiency and content knowledge—they need an understanding of diverse cultures and the ability to engage thoughtfully and empathetically with people from all walks of life.
In this talk, we’ll explore practical ways to integrate world citizenship, intercultural awareness, critical thinking, creativity, and personalized learning into CLIL lessons.
