Valk&Uil visits biannual EPEA training event for European Prison Education Professionals
The 2019 EPEA conference in Dublin emphasizes again the importance of prison education experiences exchange.
Where Dutch policy is proud about new centra for reintegration and teh focus certification and basic learnings, the Irish put the personal development first.
All speeches:the minister, The Teaching Council Education and Training Board or prison officials, all show this main interest.
The agenda didn't contain any ICT developments. The sessions Valk&Uil has visited, show the importance of seeking the Hook: the moment and incentive
that makes the inmate decide to change his live; the empowerment that brings him in another state of mind. This is exactly the ultimate ame of the ALIPPE trainingcourse for a different way of learning.
This Irish attitude feels good!
