Independent (Eva Virag Suhajda)

I have been working as an educator and a change agent for decades - mostly in Hungary, and recently in Austria. In GESOB, and in my other organizational affiliations in Hungary and Austria, we are working in cross-European education research and development projects, in areas of social change, change od educational sector, women empowerment, sustainability and supporting of immigrants. In these projects I have contributed to the development of toolsets, handbooks, curricula, and online resources. Besides I am also working as a trainer, a person-centred therapist and art therapist with different methods, such as dance and movement therapy, folk tale therapy, symbolwork, storytelling, holistic dance etc. Relatedly I have been researching the effectivity of learning. My PhD research assessed the cross-dynamics of different factors impacting learning: cognitive, physical (embodied), environmental and social. I am also closely affiliated with the sustainability area, have been working on sustainability games, textbooks and training materials, and being an active member of the Balaton Group.
