On Friday, March 21, the first and very successful conference on the Method of Instrumental Awareness in Slovakia took place. In addition to a number of inspiring papers documenting the use of MIA in Slovakia and the Czech Republic, we witnessed many powerful personal moments at Comenius University in Bratislava. We would like to thank all the participants and especially the Dean of the Faculty of Education of the University of Bratislava Prof. PaedDr. Katarína Žilková, Ph.D., Assoc. PaedDr. Terézia Harčaríková, Ph.D. and the whole Faculty of Education for their hospitality and cooperation.
