The XVIII International Congress of Educating Cities, under the motto
"Education and culture in the city: community, critical sense and creativity",
It will be a great opportunity to share good practices, based on the following thematic areas:
The construction of the city/community in increasingly complex cities.
The development of a critical and free citizenship to participate in building the future of cities.
The development of a creative citizenship that generates new sensitivities, strategies and tools to face the challenges of their society.
Experiences can be shared through three different modalities:
The sessions of Workshop will last from 90 to 120 minutes and will bring together experiences grouped around the same axis. The presentation of the experience will have a maximum duration of 10 minutes per city.
This modality will have simultaneous translation in Spanish, English, French and Portuguese (language availability may vary depending on the number of people registered in each language).
In this modality, presentations will have a maximum duration of 5 minutes per city and will be carried out in small groups.
The direct dialogue spaces will be supported by volunteer interpretation students.
The modality of Poster offers the possibility of presenting experiences through smart screens, which will collect the basic information of the project in a visual way, and can be consulted during a specific time slot (30 minutes per city), with the support of a person from the city who will be available next to the screen to answer questions from all those interested in the projects.
It is necessary to fill out the experience submission form, regardless of the presentation method chosen.
The experiences received will go through an evaluation and selection process by the Scientific Committee of the event.
The presentation method will be indicated by the participating city at the time of the presentation, in a specific field of the form. After evaluating the experiences, the Scientific Committee may indicate that they be presented in a (workshop, direct dialogue, poster) different from the one initially proposed.
Format, size and template requirements for presentations in the different modalities will be available later.
There will be certification for participants registered for the event and for those who make presentations in any of the proposed modalities.
The experiences will be received betweenAugust 1 and October 9, 2025 and the shipment will be made through the form available on the website.
