These seminars will discuss:
- the elimination of inequality in educational opportunities which is a priority goal of educational policy, recognized by international organizations and implemented in the development strategies of educational systems in the world's leading countries. The critical factor of inequality in education is socioeconomic inequality in specific communities.
- extracurricular or additional education that has been an integral part of the educational ecosystem for a long time. Numerous studies show the high potential of extracurricular activities for the education and development of a child. At the same time, extracurricular education, which is optional and not quaranteed becomes a territory of inequality.
