The 2nd meeting of the MEDIS project (Mediterranean Inclusive Schools) took place in Greece, Athens, under the hospitality of KMOP. Partners from Cyprus, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Greece and Bulgaria discussed on the plans and upcoming activities of the MEDIS handbook and training programme that targets to the inclusion of migrant students in schools.

The International Research Centre CARDET in collaboration with the “Hope For Children” CRC Policy Centre are monitoring and implementing the activities of MEDIS in Cyprus.

The pilot phase will start in September 2019, thus, any schools or teachers who are interested to be part of the MEDIS school training programme can contact us at kyriaki.yiakoupi@cardet.org.

Digital Technologies, Culture, and Youth

The year 2018 was named as the European Year of Cultural Heritage (EY2018). Within the framework of the EY2018, CARDET and its partners were recently awarded a new Erasmus+ KA2 Youth project with title “Digitasization and culture for new generations” (DiCultYouth).

The project DiCultYouth focuses on building synergies between the creative sectors of culture, education and technology aiming to boost the digital skills and employability of young people and to support education systems and cultural organizations to take advantage of new technologies. Cultural institutions have not been able to fully adopt digital technologies. This innovation gap has received little attention while the social expectation of heritage content positioned within the information economy grows. This gap in digital skills in the cultural heritage sector is the objective of our research in all five European counties. The project will develop a gamified online environment and an e-learning training course addressing the needs of young people. More details about the project will be announced soon.
