El Salvador Brain Education Project

Brain Education University

Carlos Garcia from El Salvador's Permanent Mission to the UN, initiated the project by the International Brain Education Association (IBREA) after attending the 2011 Brain Education Seminar in New York.Impressed by the success in the U.S. and Korea, Garcia recommended Brain Education to El Salvador's Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Education.
Following the pilot project's success in 2011 directed by IBREA, IBREA Foundation, and the Korea Institute of Brain Education, Vice President Salvador Sánchez Cerén proposed expansion. The 2012initiative funded by the Korean government via the Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology’s Official Development Assistance (ODA) program, focused on teacher training and consulting for emotional regulation and self esteem. Led by Global Cyber University, IBREA, and IBREA Foundation who specialize in Brain Education, it aimed for positive community transformations through long-term establishment in schools.From 2013, under the guidance of IBREA Foundation, the Ministry of Education of El Salvador and the Salvadoran Institute for Educator’s Wellness (ISBM), the project achieved significant milestones. By 2017, a quarter of all schools in El Salvador, totaling over 1,400, had teachers trained in Brain Education.
President Salvador Sánchez Cerén of El Salvador, who fervently backed the Brain Education project during his tenure as the Minister of Education and subsequently as the President, summarized the transformative effect of Brain Education:“Brain Education is an innovative philosophy that combines knowledge of the brain, energy, and emotional regulation to take you through a process to mold and cultivate your character towards a healthier and happier life. …We want to live in tolerance and be able to accept each other. In that sense, this initiative method is very special and that’s why we have supported its expansion to other schools”.schools
