About the Conference
On 29th and 30th August 2024, we celebrate our 27th International Service-Learning Conference in Buenos Aires in the context of the 21st International Service-Learning Week.
The International Service-Learning Conference, organized by CLAYSS, is a space for educators, authorities and students of all levels, as well as members and leaders of community and civil society organizations. It provides training and updates on the Service-Learning (SL) pedagogy. It also fosters the international exchange of ideas and experiences among schools, higher education institutions, universities, and social organizations currently developing community-based educational projects. It offers a new perspective to all those unfamiliar with SL but curious about projects carried out worldwide.
This unique event aims to foster closer connections between civil society organizations and the formal education system better, benefiting both equity and educational quality.
