Workshop for Teachers and Librarians

An interactive workshop combining a presentation of the Narrative 4 methodology and an educational programme "Through the Story" linked to the exhibition FAUST by Radka Bodzewicz.

Narrative 4 Presentation with Rachel Gleeson (11:30-12:30)

Rachel Gleeson, programme manager and trainer at the global organization Narrative 4, will introduce specific activities applicable in teaching or library programmes - focused on story-sharing and developing empathy. Narrative 4 promotes a methodology that its founder, Irish writer Colum McCann, called "radical empathy": I listen to another person's story and retell it as my own.

Educational Programme "Through the Story" (12:30-14:30)

The programme is built on authentic stories from the participants themselves on the theme of "transformation", each no longer than 5 minutes. Each participant prepares their story in advance and decides whether to choose a serious or lighter tone. Rachel Gleeson studied psychology with a focus on early childhood care and works on the topic of interpersonal communication and the impact of personal stories on human relationships.
