ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2019</strong><br />

APPROACH<br />

Cognitive neuroscience<br />

research has shown that a<br />

significant part of our learning<br />

occurs due to a neurobiological<br />

process called ‘neuroplasticity’,<br />

which is the capacity of the<br />

brain to rewire in response<br />

to the environment. Scientific<br />

research also establishes<br />

that since no two brains are<br />

identical, learning needs to<br />

‘individualised’ as much as<br />

possible.<br />

It is in light of these findings that<br />

<strong>UNESCO</strong> MGIEP has designed its<br />

approach for learners. The Institute works<br />

on the premise that education needs<br />

to include the learning of skills through<br />

which individuals recognize and regulate<br />

emotions, identify a positive purpose,<br />

demonstrate empathy for others, and<br />

take constructive action to promote<br />

human flourishing.
