GLITTER Consortium Advances Efforts to Strengthen Digital Well-being in Schools

Partners of the GLITTER project (Strengthening learners’ digital well-being using effective teaching practices and digital environments) gathered in Nicosia, Cyprus, on 2–3 October 2025 for a transnational project meeting (TPM) hosted by CARDET.

The event brought together representatives from CARDET (Cyprus), KONNEKTABLE TECHNOLOGIES (Greece), UAV (Romania), Wonderful Education (Italy), and PCG (Poland) to review project progress and plan next steps in advancing digital well-being across European schools.

Over two productive days, partners discussed the ongoing work within each work package, including mapping best practices, designing the whole-school approach to digital well-being, and developing practical tools to be piloted in schools across Cyprus, Italy, Poland, and Romania. UAV led in-depth sessions on national mappings and comparative analysis, while WE presented updates on the design and development of practical instruments. CARDET guided discussions on pilot implementation and evaluation strategies, ensuring that forthcoming activities align with the project’s overall objectives.

In addition, the consortium addressed project management, financial coordination, communication, and sustainability strategies. The GLITTER communication team, coordinated by CARDET and KT with support from UAV, WE, and PCG, reaffirmed its commitment to promoting the project’s visibility and impact through strategic dissemination, social media engagement, and stakeholder outreach.

Through these collaborative efforts, GLITTER aims to develop and test an evidence-based whole-school approach to enhance digital well-being in education, supporting teachers, learners, and policymakers in fostering safer and more empowering digital environments.

The meeting concluded with an engaging networking dinner in the heart of old Nicosia, further strengthening collaboration and partnership spirit among the project teams.
