‘(What all) starts within ourselves and spills over into the spaces of our practice?’ is the question we continue to ask, together with a growing international community of educators, within the DEFY project.
In the second half of March (specifically on March 22), we gathered with the participants of the course Shifting Edges, which runs from the end of January to September 2025. After six weeks of meeting online, the Irish, Germans, and Slovenians had the opportunity to meet in person at Knockree Hostel (Ireland), and together we completed the first chapter of the course, ‘Exploring’, in the heart of the Wicklow Valley.
The course continues – we are opening a new chapter – ‘Expansion’.
We will share more about this in the coming months.
