Moombix is revolutionising music education: Traditional music education is outdated, rigid and often inaccessible. Margrét can discuss how Moombix is transforming the learning experience - making music education more flexible, interactive and tailored to the unique needs of adult learners. Beyond just lessons, Moombix embraces music as a lifestyle choice, empowering people to integrate creativity into their everyday lives. With a strong focus on accessibility, the platform also reaches learners even in the most remote areas, helping them connect, grow and prosper through music.

“In a world where division seems to be the norm, we stand united. We are musicians, singers, artists, and advocates, all bound by the belief that music can bridge the gaps and mend the divides. Our mission is simple yet profound: to bring people together, to celebrate our shared humanity, and to recommit to the promise of a "more perfect union."
