5. Dialogical Literary Gathering. Introduction

Dialogical literary gatherings are a cultural and educational activity that have their origin in Spain and that were born in an Adult School in Barcelona ("La Verneda-San Martí") during the 80s.

From that time on, literary gatherings spread quickly to other centres and organizations, being held in Infant, Primary and Secondary schools but also in parents association (PTAs), civic centers, libraries and other recreational spaces.

Although literary gatherings are one of the main educational successful performances taking place in schools belonging to the network of Learning Communities, all schools and organizations can benefit from them. Let us see how.
