In this issue of our newsletter we are delighted to share with you teasers from the podcasts we created as part of the VOLARE project.
The network of “voices” is growing: in 11 episodes, we talk with educators, artists, academics, and professionals from diverse disciplines and fields, highlighting the importance of testimony in education and public discourse.
This audio material enriches the “mosaic” of the repository by adding voices, experiences, and reflections of people with whom we engage -both literally and symbolically- through our work. In addition, VOLARE collaborators reflect on their participation in this two-year project, shedding light on specific aspects.
Finally, we present the detailed programme of the VOLARE International Conference, which will take place on Friday 21 and Saturday 22 November 2025, in Athens, at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens.
Listen to the podcast teasers and explore the conference programme below.
