On Dec 7, 2018, School of Education – University of Saint Joseph hosted the first seminar on Arts Education with The International Society for Education Through Art (InSEA), a world famous non-governmental arts organisation for educators and an official partner of the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization UNESCO): More than 60 educators and local primary school children attended the InSEA workshops and seminar. The President of InSEA, Teresa Torres de Eça; Angela Saldanha and Prof. Steve Willis brought us examples of art education theory and praxis from Europe and North America, integrating core questions about the role of the arts, especially the visual arts in formal and non-formal education and possible developments of art education in the context of the sustainable development goals. Further collaborations with InSEA will be developed to promote international arts education and research collaboration.
