For many years I work in education and as a freelance interpreter in Belgium. With colleagues we have developed the arts education project Listening Eyes.
Listening Eyes (Luisterogen in Dutch) is an innovative visual approach to literacy education through art, for use outside and inside classrooms. It is aimed at those without easy access to cultural knowledge, perhaps because of limited language competence, economic situation or migration status. Students using Listening Eyes work with their teachers alongside authors, poets, designers, artists, photographers and others. The approach has been – and continues to be – developed in collaboration with museums, libraries and mental health organisations in Belgium and the Netherlands.
Currently I coordinate Listening Eyes and keep abreast of the latest developments in art education.
