SAME as a Research and Community Outreach Unit: A coffee, a conversation, an idea

Speaker: Marisa Carvalho, Coordinator of the Educational Improvement Service (SAME, FEP)

Description: The Educational Improvement Service (Serviço de Apoio à Melhoria da Educação, SAME) is a space for collaboration, proximity, and educational innovation, established in 2009. Its mission is clear: to support and empower schools, school clusters, and education professionals by promoting coherent, sustainable, and transformative organizational and pedagogical practices. Through consultancy, training, expert assessments, research, and publications, SAME has become a driving force for improvement and knowledge production rooted in the lived realities of the educational communities within its extensive partner network. Today, as a Research and Community Outreach Unit, SAME is undergoing a process of reassessment and change.

In this Learning Coffee, we aim to present SAME’s journey and co-construct its future. You are warmly invited to join us for a coffee, a conversation, and an idea—with the hope of future collaborations.

Note: This Learning Coffee session will be conducted in Portuguese only.
