🌍 Nadia De Leon, Director of the Center of Educational Research in Panama (CIEDU) in conversation with Dr. Connie Nshemereirwe, PhD for the latest episode of our podcast A is not for Apple. ✏️ In this episode, Nadia tells us about the Panamanian initiative to include over 300 schools in an education program that not only covers elemental subjects like Language and Maths but presents an integrated approach that provides for key factors like nutrition and mental health. 📖 Nadia emphasizes the importance of a 360-degree project in which resources are primarily focused on building an educational system that includes teacher training and health prevention programs for schools in Indigenous reservations. 💡 Although concrete results are yet to be studied, there is no doubt that a more holistic approach to primary-level education is key to developing more complete human beings for the future. 📺 Watch the full interview by following the link on the first comment and tell us what we can learn from the type of program Nadia is telling us about 👇
