New date for the contact seminar for kindergartens and preschools

For whom

Teachers and staff, headmasters and management in kindergarten/preschool institutions are welcome to participate.

About the seminar

How can learning environments support and encourage the natural curiosity and learning in children? And how can the interest for a sustainable world be strengthened? Seminar workshops will focus on the Convention on the Rights of the Child and learning for Sustainable development, but future collaborations can revolve around other themes as well. In the contact seminar you will meet Nordic and Baltic colleagues and share and discuss experiences and challenges. You will get the opportunity to network and discuss future collaborations for a partnership within Nordplus Junior.

Have a concrete project idea

In order to get the most out of the contact seminar you should have one or several ideas for collaboration projects/themes. An ambition to apply for a project in Nordplus Junior is fundamental when you register your interest in participating in the seminar.

If you are accepted

If you are accepted, you will receive more specific instructions by e-mail approximately one month before the contact seminar takes place. You book and pay for travels yourself. A grant in the form of a unit cost will be reimbursed to your institution before your participation in the seminar.
