We’re thrilled to share that our project was proudly presented by Dorota Piotrowska during the recent Erasmus+ Higher Education event in Gdynia, Poland!

The event, titled “EU-Engage: Promoting Civic and Democratic Engagement in Higher Education”, brought together inspiring initiatives that use art, creativity, sport, and critical thinking to reimagine civic society. From combating fake news to addressing overtourism, the gathering showcased how education and engagement can drive real change.

Held from 29 September to 1 October 2025 in Gdynia - a vibrant city in northern Poland - the seminar was organised by the Polish National Agency - Foundation for the Development of the Education System. It welcomed 67 participants from 11 European countries (Belgium, Czech Republic, Germany, Denmark, Estonia, Spain, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Sweden, and Turkey), as well as Canada.

This event was part of the PEACE+ initiative, a collaboration of 23 Erasmus+ National Agencies aiming to enhance young people’s and students’ understanding of European values, raise awareness of the benefits of EU membership, and promote greater civic engagement and democratic participation.

Our contribution? Demonstrating how #edu4sdgs empowers learners and educators to integrate the UN Sustainable Development Goals into higher education through innovative, interdisciplinary approaches.

We’re proud to be part of a European movement that believes in the power of education to shape a more sustainable, inclusive, and informed future.
