As stated in the Curriculum for Wales, Cynefin is:
“The place where we feel we belong, where the people and landscape around us are familiar, and the sights and sounds are reassuringly recognisable. The historic, cultural and social place that has shaped and continues to shape the community which inhabits it.”
