Programme

This Zintuin introduction course invites you to a different and promising perspective on education. Through generic exercises, we’ll actively explore how ‘the temporal arts’ – with emphasis on music – open an inviting perspective on education. Zintuin shows how education can be embedded in a more consistent view of what it means to be human in a changing world.
