This project arises from the need to create a space for reflection on topics parallel to the Curricular Units of the 1st cycle of Psychology
It is easily noticeable the interest and curiosity of students regarding various subjects that are not included in the CU programmes but are pertinent and current issues, directly or indirectly related to them and to Psychology in general.
Since there is often no time to address these topics in class, it will be valuable to create an alternative space for reflection involving both lecturers and students. A preliminary survey of the needs of 1st cycle students was conducted to define the themes for the Cycle of Talks.
