ENG: Nature is suffering, and so is Zura’s feline friend Milo. Naturally, this makes Zura angry. Soon, Zura knows she’ll have to turn her anger into action to save both.
The English teacher and author Marina Fonseca picks up the subject of the bad ecological state of planet earth and motivates to discover the little superpower in each of us to take action for a healthier planet!
The narrative is for children from the age of 4 up is supported by the stunning paintings of the artist Lisa Junius. With her style she brings light into dark places and easily represents inclusive characters.
The reading in English with Marina Fonseca will take place on April 30th at 2:30 pm at CITIM. As usual there is no entrance fee! (A reading in Luxembourgish with Lisa Junius will follow afterwards.)
To plan ahead, we would like you to enroll you and your children in advance under: citim@astm.lu or call us under: +352 400 427 -31. We are happy to see you soon!
LUX: Der Natur geet et net gutt, genee sou wei dem Zura sengem Frënd Milo. Natierlech mëscht dat d’Zura rosen. Mais geschwënn mierkt et dass et seng Roserei an eng Aktioun muss ëmwandelen fir den Milo an sech ze retten.
D’Engleschproff an Autrice Marina Fonseca gräift eent vun den präsentesten Themen eiser Zäit op: den schlechten ökologeschen Zoustand vun eisem Planéit Äerd.

Passion, intricate rhythms, and awe-inspiring performances are what you might associate today with the word flamenco.
However, to truly understand the essence of this way of living, one must delve into the rich depths of its history, marked by the struggles and influences of minority communities.
Our goal is to meticulously study the multifaceted history of flamenco, from its early stages to the sold-out shows of today, with a focus on the hardships and influences of minority groups.
Expect extensive references, comparative analysis of literature, and an introduction to fundamental flamenco music concepts with practical demonstrations. By the end of this course, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of flamenco’s origins, its significance to those who have shaped it, and its continuing impact on culture and history.
We invite you to participate in this 3-part series of conference, by registering for each part individually by mail to: rocio.meza@astm.lu

Nujeen Mustafa is a disability and refugees rights advocate born in Syria. Due to bombing and shelling of her hometown Aleppo, she first flew to Turkey and a year later, at the age of 16, together with her sister to Germany in her wheelchair. During their flight they crossed the Mediterranean to Greece by boot and crossed many country borders by bus, train and foot, with her sister pushing her wheelchair. She started attending school in Germany, as the infrastructure in Syria and Turkey were not aligned for people with disabilities. Today she still resides in Germany, near Cologne, and is about to finish high school with her A-levels. She speaks Kurdish, Arabic, German as well as English, which she taught herself in Syria watching American soap operas.
