The BasketALL

The main goal of the project The BasketALL (BASKETball Adaptation for All) project is to promote and develop cooperation in Wheelchair Basketball for all, not just athletes, between EU institutions, Member States and sport stakeholders, focusing on the above-mentioned activities (training, tournament, dissemination) which have a clear EU added value. This innovative methodology includes digital literacy seminars, Train the trainers training event and pilot courses. All educational material which will be created as part of this project will be featured on the BASKETALL platform, with exercise and adaptation protocols specifically designed for people with disabilities who are not athletes. This platform will house all educational materials for trainers and trainees and present a comprehensive training Basket for all program, aiming at inclusion within the inclusion. Therefore, our project provides European added value to a great extent, since it will have huge impact and interest in the EU area, individuals (youths, athletes, coaches, physical education teachers, learners, staff and other interested people), Sports Clubs or other groups. They will be working together to generate results that would be difficult to attain by the partners acting without European cooperation. Consequently, by using sport, and especially wheelchair basketball, we will cooperate for the promotion of EU values and inclusion. The platform is live and open to everyone at: https://rehlab.phyed.duth.gr/basketall-erasmus/

TOBE – Tools for Better Learning

TOBE – A European Platform Bringing Non-Formal Learning Closer to Youth

In today’s fast-changing world, young people need more than traditional education – they need experiences that are practical, engaging, and easy to access. This is the core belief behind the TOBE – Tools for Better Learning project (2023-2-BG01-KA220-YOU-000177242), which brings together partners from Bulgaria, Greece, and North Macedonia with the common mission to make learning more interactive, inclusive, and accessible through digital means.

At the heart of the project is a freely accessible online platform where youth workers, educators, students, and volunteers can explore a rich library of tools for non-formal learning. The platform offers methodologically structured content, categorized by type, topic, and level of difficulty – including energizers, role games, icebreakers, group tasks, and interactive methods supported by video demonstrations and manuals.

The platform is live and open to everyone at: https://youthtraining.eu

Democritus University of Thrace and Neapolis University Pafos announce the creation of a new joint English-language Undergraduate Medical Program. As members of the same European University Alliance, EMERGE, and with a consistent orientation toward extroversion and excellence, the two institutions are joining forces to create a joint, well-structured, and modern Medical Studies Program aligned with the latest scientific developments.

The joint Medical Program will offer enrolled students the opportunity to pursue high-level medical studies at Neapolis University Pafos and Democritus University of Thrace. It will deploy state-of-the-art facilities and technological infrastructure, including those of the University General Hospital of Democritus University of Thrace in Alexandroupolis (https://www.pgna.gr/), covering all medical specialties, staffed by highly qualified academic and medical personnel.

The Rectors of the two universities, Professors Fotios Maris (DUTH) and Pantelis Sklias (NUP), jointly stated:

“We express our great satisfaction with this development. We are convinced that the new joint Medical Program will attract excellent students from Cyprus, Europe, and third countries, expanding the international reach and outward orientation of both academic institutions. The Program will be structured in such a way as to meet the high standards and quality requirements set by the European Commission, in order to obtain the European Label designation and evolve into a European Degree through the processes of creating joint Study Programs within the framework of the EMERGE European Alliance.

We are now beginning the joint hard work required to move forward with the next steps in the accreditation process and enable the Program to be offered in both Greece and Cyprus.”
