ESTORIL VIGOTSKY CONFERENCE

24 – 26 June 2010, Lisbon Portugal

First Announcement

We agree with the opinion of Professor Bella Kotik-Friedgut when she says that to know the Psychology of Vigotsky is important to visit Moscow and learn from Russian teachers. But the “distance” from the language and have little tradition in the movement of professionals in this beautiful country, seems to inhibit the movement expected by the enormous current interest in Russian Psychology. Subsequently, the IPAF for its tradition since 1996 in the training of psychologists and pedagogues approach Vigotskyan in Portugal and Brazil offered to host from 24 till 26 June in Lisbon an international conference focusing on the teaching of psychology represented in the Russian school of Vigotsky, Luria and Leont’ev, counting from now with the following committee:
