VirtuEU - one of my greatest academic challenges so far? To coordinate ten international institutions towards the General Objective of the VirtuEu project which can be summarized as follows: To promote European and universal values of democracy, peace, freedom, solidarity, and collaboration among [2,500] young people in Europe and the Western Balkans; to strengthen their identity as active citizens and residents of Europe and providing with adequate skills that will improve their employability chances. The project focuses on young people, who study in HEIs (Higher Education Institutions) in European and Western Balkan countries through online and offline non-formal educational activities. Including at the Universidade de Aveiro - young students such as in the picture below will need to help me. Partners include European Association of Institutes for Vocational Training (EVBB), Metropolitan College Global Engagement and others.
A major challenge Manuel, but one of the most important that must be tackled with all seriousness at the moment. If anyone can initiate it and bring it into structure, it's you and your spirit. Good luck and many fellow campaigners in this task.
