ESDGs!

Designação do Projeto: Sustainable Development Goals in education and in action!

Acrónimo do Projeto: ESDGs!

Objetivos: The main goal of the ESDGs! project is to expand the teaching of entrepreneurship, which implements the current issue in the form of SDGs goals. This will lead to an increase in awareness in the context of issues of sustainability and entrepreneurship.

The ESDGs! project is focused on implementing the principles of sustainable development and SDGs in teaching in the fields of creating new entrepreneurial solutions and business models (in connection with national development priorities and trends) or in terms of modifying the strategy in existing entrepreneurial solutions and business models. This education module will to a large degree respect and use digital trends and modern tools of distance learning. The use of these tools reflects not only the needs that have arisen due to the current and ongoing pandemic, but the generally growing trend of actively involving these tools in education.

The primary target group that the courses are aimed at are university students, but also the general public (adults), who will complete the MOOC course.

There are 2 main results of the project and 1 output. The ESDGs! project is made up of one output and two results. Each of the output/result is coordinated by one partner and contains several output/result activities.

Designação do Projeto: Developing Online International Teamwork

Acrónimo do Projeto: DO IT

Objetivos: DO IT is a project created to support of HEI education through a project supporting digital, intercultural and teamworking competences among teachers, academic staff, HEI education providers and university students and establishing a cooperative network among educational institutions. Outputs will be aimed to these objectives and will help us to increase the quality of teaching and attractiveness of study.

The main goal is to develop COIL courses (Collaborative Online International Learning) or BIPs (Blended Intensive Programmes) in a close cooperation with students, particularly students that have an experience with international mobility programmes.

It is planned to develop courses in the areas of entrepreneurship (e.g. How to establish a start-up), global issues and economic development (solving SDGs), finance and taxation (tax fairness), management, behavioural economics or other fields according to the possibilities of project partners.
