March has been a month of surprises and celebrations! Brussels is thriving with demonstrations and events, and we are finally feeling a bit of spring with more light and sunny days. 

The count-down for our last weeks here has started and in this month we felt a bit nostalgic of what passed and full of hope for what is coming.

Have you seen the new look of our website and social media? We are really excited about it and about the impact it may have for our future communications. Thank you Agata!

Mathi & Sara had an intense project writing session this month, with both an Erasmus+ KA2 and a CERV application, but we also had some good news!! YOU-CARE, the project that Mathi wrote in the past call got accepted, congratulations Mathilda <3  

Last but not least, we had the first SPICE Coffee with all the team and discussed the book Entrer en Pédagogie Antiraciste and Decolonialism in education. 

These last few days there has been a lot of movement in the office ; something is boiling for our last month… Keep reading to see what we are talking about!!
