Teresa Flores is a teacher from Granada who is part of the Ministry of Education and Culture (MCEP). Among her interests, she has developed a passion for storytelling, introducing the traditional activity of storytelling into the school. Working as a teacher in Switzerland, she had the opportunity to meet Elisabeth Zurbriggen, who collaborates with the Fondation Education et Development in Geneva, and began to delve deeper into storytelling techniques and modalities borrowed from diverse peoples and cultures, also verifying how storytelling is transnational and transcultural. Upon her return to Spain in 1990, she introduced storytelling to the primary school (where she taught), encouraging her students to work together to tell stories to other groups. The activity did not stop at the school, but extended to the municipal library, nursery schools, and local television programs. The class opened its doors, becoming a center for cultural promotion. A school that narrates, with children as protagonists. Teresa has led numerous workshops and training courses not only for teachers but also for librarians, sociocultural coordinators, and educators, both in Spain and abroad (Italy, Romania, Bulgaria, Senegal, Poland, Japan, Mexico, and Austria), transmitting to participants both the ancient wisdom of storytelling, in an attitude of interaction, and the pleasure of being both educators and storytellers. Coordinating research groups with adults, she has been able to collect materials and documents of great historical and intercultural interest. In 2008, the Italian Edizioni Junior published A raccountar storie: Materiali e oggeti tradizionali (Telling Stories: Traditional Materials and Objects) in the Quadernos di Cooperazione Educativa collection, translated from her book Materiales y objetos tradicionals para contar cuentos (Traditional Materials and Objects for Storytelling), published by Editorial Aria of Granada in 2005. Giancarlo Gavinato is a member of the MCE (Italian Educational Cooperation Movement).
