The event brought together 9 participants from Lodz University of Technology and University of Algarve, including teachers and administrative staff, who explored the importance of emotional intelligence, stress management, and diversity in today’s multicultural academic landscape. Participants explored their own emotions and learned how these impact their professional interactions. They also developed empathy and advanced communication skills to foster stronger connections with colleagues and students from diverse cultural backgrounds.

One of the standout sessions was a visit to the Marek Edelman Dialogue Center in Lodz, where participants explored Survivors' Park and learned about empathy-driven projects that align with the program’s core themes. The EQUNI Game session attracted significant interest, during which training participants were introduced to the board game developed as part of the project. The game aims to deepen understanding of the phenomenon of discrimination and its impact, as well as to sensitize players to discrimination they may witness or experience.

Stay tuned for the second edition of the training to be organised in the spring. Together, we can create academic environments where everyone feels valued and empowered to succeed!

We have prepared two newsletters full of inspiring updates and interesting facts. You will learn how our activities contribute to sustainable development and what project tasks we are currently working on.

📬 Newsletter 1: Discover the foundations of the SDGs University Knowledge Hub – an open online educational platform where you will soon find pathways for developing knowledge and skills in the field of Sustainable Development Goals. We also invite you to analyze the survey results, which provide valuable insights into SDG awareness, emotional intelligence, learning preferences, and career and skill development through micro-credentials.
