18th International Tool Fair

Aims & objectives

The event provides an opportunity to learn, collaborate and share knowledge around innovative methods and best practices in non-formal learning, through the exploration and exchange of ‘educational tools’. An educational tool can be thought of as the way we transfer and implement educational goals into a practice that engages participants in the learning process. Tools can take various forms, such as simulation exercises, creative workshops, role plays and more.
