The Erasmus+ Strategic Partnership 'AMiE' helps to meet this need by providing European teachers with inspirational and supportive tools regarding the introduction of mindfulness in pre-primary and primary education (age group 3 to 12). AMiE is unique in that it uses the power of art and creative processes as a starting point for the introduction of mindfulness in a school context. The final conference of the AMiE project will be held in Antwerp.
