We are delighted to announce an open call for all members of EUGLOH to join us in creating projects that tackle the challenges of an increasingly digital world. We seek individuals that want to break the mold of their routines, and share their expertise and insights into the digital transformation of our society.

Participants will be guided through an exploration process of various methodologies, with a special focus on the creation of communication materials, both in linear and experimental formats, for pre-selected competence areas related to Digital Literacy. Throughout the activity, participants will have access to “round the clock” support from Professors and mentors.

This intensive and yet fun-driven activity is divided in two parts:

  • The first part is exclusively online. It consists of a set of 5 webinars that will be pre-recorded and available on the platform of the activity. The topics of each webinar will be conducted by experts and aligned with the major theme of Digital Literacy.
  • The second part aims to help participants identify, develop, and present new areas, approaches, and formats that address the challenges of digital literacy. This second part is held in-person for U.Porto students and online for participants of the other Universities of the Alliance.

The activity will culminate with a public session on the final day, in which there we will have an elevator-pitch session where each team must present their project to a jury, who will assess the viability and feasibility of the final projects. The winning team will be selected and win a prize! Apply now to join this EUGLOH adventure!
