We are proud to share the publication of the Being BOLD – Handbook of Social Action and Service Learning in Pre-Service Teacher Education, another output of the BOLD project.
This open-access resource brings together theory, tools, and examples of real-life practices to support the integration of social action and service learning into initial teacher education. With a strong focus on linguistic and cultural diversity, the Handbook aims to help future teachers become active, inclusive, and socially engaged professionals.
