Architecture is linked to people: we inhabit our homes, streets, neighbourhoods, cities, etc. It helps us to understand our environment and, at the same time, to have the critical discernment needed to improve it.<\/p>\n
Aware of this vital role, at the Open Centre we actively promote knowledge of architecture among children and young people.<\/strong><\/p>\n With this objective in mind \u2013 and supported by the Law on Architecture, designed to promote architecture among school-age children \u2013 in 2017, the Architects’ Association of Catalonia launched an educational programme. The result was the creation of the ArquiEscola, a cross-cutting educational project<\/strong> based on the new teaching strategies of meaningful and project-based learning.<\/p>\n","links_list":false},{"title":"EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMME","navigation_title":"EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMME","image":{"ID":1474,"id":1474,"title":"maquetacio projecte educatiu - presentaci\u00c3\u00b3 v2.indd","filename":"programa_arquiescola_1080.jpg","filesize":703385,"url":"https:\/\/www.centreobertarquitectura.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/programa_arquiescola_1080.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.centreobertarquitectura.com\/apren\/maquetacio-projecte-educatiu-presentacia%c2%b3-v2-indd\/","alt":"ArquiEscola","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"maquetacio-projecte-educatiu-presentacia%c2%b3-v2-indd","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":47,"date":"2021-09-14 10:00:52","modified":"2021-09-14 10:01:03","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.centreobertarquitectura.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1080,"height":668,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.centreobertarquitectura.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/programa_arquiescola_1080-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/www.centreobertarquitectura.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/programa_arquiescola_1080-300x186.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":186,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.centreobertarquitectura.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/programa_arquiescola_1080.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":475,"large":"https:\/\/www.centreobertarquitectura.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/programa_arquiescola_1080-1024x633.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":633,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.centreobertarquitectura.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/programa_arquiescola_1080.jpg","1536x1536-width":1080,"1536x1536-height":668,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.centreobertarquitectura.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/programa_arquiescola_1080.jpg","2048x2048-width":1080,"2048x2048-height":668}},"description":" The ArquiEscola educational programme is aimed at primary and secondary schools.
