Building gender balance in ICT studies
Recognizing the importance of diversity in the digital field, this priority seeks proposals for projects that develop teaching frameworks and policy interventions to encourage gender balance in pursuing ICT-related studies and professions.
Breaking down institutional, socio-economic, and cultural barriers is key to ensuring everyone has the chance to shape their educational and professional journey, regardless of gender.
Digital well-being
As our digital footprint expands, so does the importance of digital well-being.
This priority calls for initiatives that put into practice effective strategies to enhance digital well-being.
In a world where technology plays an integral role in education, we need to explore approaches that foster a healthy relationship with digital tools, ensuring students and educators can harness the benefits of using technology in classrooms.
Data literacy strategies
With the increasing reliance on data in the digital age, this priority seeks projects addressing data literacy strategies in primary and secondary education.
This priority emphasizes the need to equip students with the skills to navigate, understand, and critically analyse data.
Proposals should contribute to shaping an education system that prepares the future workforce for the challenges and opportunities presented by data-driven environments.
Who can apply
