The program will cover areas such as artificial intelligence, mental health in young people, and other aspects of care and well-being, as well as astronomy, interpretive hiking, organic horticulture, and regenerative viticulture, integrating theoretical approaches with practical experiences geared toward the direct application of knowledge.
