This initiative is a collaboration between Studio Atelirista (Italy) and Erasmus+, which provided co-funding. The Association Méditation dans l’Enseignement (AMLE, France) served as the host organisation, contributing expertise in mindfulness-based methodologies and social-emotional learning. Together, the partnership created a strong platform for sharing evidence-based Transformative Learning (TL) strategies rooted in belonging, participatory design, and systemic change.
Follow-up projects will be submitted in the second round of Erasmus+ in October.
