Island. We are all castaways.

Education. Alternative scenarios.
What if we were to rethink the meaning of education, starting with the most fundamental questions, and to return to the Latin roots of this word: educare, which means ‘to bring up’, and educere, meaning ‘to lead out’, ‘to bring forth’? Join Katarzyna Wala for a short expedition in search of alternative stories about contemporary education, about what it could become if we suspended the beliefs we take for granted.
