At Green Book, we believe that education goes far beyond academic learning. With this in mind, we developed the project “The Art of (Co)Living” especially for 7th and 8th grade students, aiming to promote reflection and learning about healthy interpersonal relationships. The socio-emotional development of our students is essential to shaping empathetic, collaborative individuals who are prepared for future challenges. With this goal, we created “The Art of (Co)Living,” an initiative focused on reflection and learning about healthy interpersonal relationships.
Project Schedule
The project was structured over four weeks, with various activities to engage students in different approaches to coexistence, respect, and empathy. Check out how the journey unfolded:
