The Balcão de Ideias e Práticas Educativas (Conter of Ideas and Educational Practices), a Neoenergia Institute‘s initiative ina partnership with the Centro Integrado de Estudos e Programas de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (CIEDS) has just launched a page in its platform (www.cieds.org.br/balcaodeideias/covid-19/) intended to educators, teachers and other professionals from the Education area, for sharing experiences, promoting knowledge and dialogue on the challenges of the area in combating the pandemic.​​
 

One of the most affected sectors by COVID-19​, the education area has been facing hardships, such as content adjustment to the new reality, planning the return back to onsite classes and the post-pandemic scenario. The project has assisted over 1,181 educators in Brazil, and a need was found to create a virtual page, freely accessible to all education professionals, aiming at strengthening knowledge, sharing experiences and feedback from educators, also providing information of interest, such as events and news on education.​
 

 

“This is a space for dialogue and integration among education professionals. We are living challenging times with the pandemic impacts and collaborative and network actions are proven to be even more important and needed”, says Nathacha Ferreira, project coordinator at CIEDs.

In addition to educational practices and cross-related themes, the page also provides the possibility for teachers all over the country - who can enroll for free in the platform - to be aware of events such as webinars, online courses and open lectures of the sector, in addition to accessing news, articles, bit notices and educational materials, as well as sending good practices to the page.

“We had to provide a quick response to this new reality. The launching of this page advances the objectives of the Counter of Ideas project, supported by Neoenergia Institute since 2019, with attention to the new demands of this scenario of COVID-19. The initiative supplements one of the pillars of our work, Training & Research, so that, together, we are able to find solutions for education on a collaborative basis”, concludes Renata Chagas, Neoenergia Institute’s DEO.​
