This article presents the review of the virtual mobility experience of the International Virtual Congress connecting schools, held on 6, 7 and 8 May 2019 with a group of 411 attendees from 8 countries in Latin America and Spain working on compulsory education (K-12) and universal accessibility and inclusion in school.
The virtual format was chosen following open virtual mobility criteria as a guarantee of inclusion. Free registration was chosen to ensure economic accessibility, the virtual format to facilitate international contact and the possibility of participation for educational agents from rural communities, and the clear commitment to multiple literacies, offering audio, Spanish Sign Language and Visual Thinking simultaneously
An analysis of the impact and dissemination achieved, the accompaniment of the organisational and honorary committees, as well as the responses to the satisfaction survey carried out on the people who participated in the congress, led us to the conclusion that this format is very collaborative and accessible, also creating a high impact in the generation of a virtual network where common knowledge can be shared.
