Call for abstracts - workshops
The program of the World Congress will include workshops designed to be interactive and peer-led, with social educators learning from each other. Think of it as a professional jam session where you can share your expertise and experiences with colleagues from around the world. What are you particularly skilled at in your role? Do you have cases and examples of how your work has positively impacted the lives of the citizens you serve? We hope your workshop will inspire your fellow social educators and offer new perspectives on professionalism and the field.
To host a workshop, you need to submit an abstract, which will be reviewed by the Aieji World Congress Program Committee.
