KA210-ADU-1340C453
NatureHeal is an Erasmus+ KA210-ADU project dedicated to supporting women who are recovering from cancer and preparing to return to the labour market. Many face emotional, cognitive, and social challenges—reduced concentration, fatigue, lack of confidence, and workplace stigma. NatureHeal introduces biophilic learning, an approach rooted in connection with nature, designed to strengthen resilience, emotional balance, and readiness for professional reintegration.
The project develops supportive methods that combine nature-based activities, experiential approaches, and non-formal education. NatureHeal aims to help women rebuild confidence, restore emotional stability, and strengthen soft skills that are crucial for re-entering the workforce.
Key project components include:
developing a biophilic learning framework for adult education
creating practical materials and a user-friendly guide for educators
training sessions for staff within partner organisations
pilot activities with women recovering from cancer
international meetings and a final event to disseminate results
All methods are carefully adapted to different stages of recovery and individual needs.
Creative Station plays a central role in developing and shaping the project’s educational approach. Our contribution includes:
designing and co-creating training content and instructional materials
preparing methodology chapters within the project guide
supporting pilot activities through mentoring and facilitation
evaluating outcomes and adjusting methods to ensure their relevance
involving local educators and women participating in reintegration programmes
Through these activities, Creative Station strengthens its role in inclusive adult education and the development of innovative, nature-based learning methods.
The project focuses on primary school teachers and students aged 8-12 years old.
Women recovering from cancer often face a unique mix of challenges:
reduced confidence and emotional vulnerability
fatigue and cognitive difficulties
fear of returning to demanding work environments
stigma and misunderstanding at the workplace
Biophilic learning offers a gentle, accessible, and effective pathway to rebuild resilience. Nature becomes a supportive learning space that nurtures focus, grounding, interpersonal connections, and a renewed sense of inner strength — all essential for a successful return to work.
