Successful Conclusion of Activities within the Erasmus+ KA2 SSHTeaching21 Project in Hradec Králové

From May 15 to 17, the Faculty of Arts at the University of Hradec Králové hosted the final activities of the Erasmus+ KA2 SSHTeaching21 project, which will conclude in October. The events included two main parts: an international conference and a Learning Teaching Training Activity (LTTA).

The international conference welcomed professionals and interested individuals from both the Czech Republic and abroad. Participants could join the event either virtually or in person. The conference provided an opportunity for attendees to meet and share their experiences and insights on various topics. Additionally, the project that hosted the event was presented, along with its current and developing outcomes.

The LTTA was specifically for members of the three partner universities involved in the project: Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań (Poland), Constantine the Philosopher University (Slovakia), and the University of Hradec Králové. Up to 10 colleagues from each institution participated, including one PhD student from each university. The LTTA featured a series of training sessions and workshops aimed at enhancing participants' skills, particularly in teaching, research, and international collaboration. Like the conference, this event provided plenty of opportunities for discussion, helping to strengthen the connections between the universities.

Both events provided opportunities not only for professional discussions on various topics but also for informal meetings within the leisure program. Participants could engage in diverse workshops, explore interesting places in Hradec Králové, and enjoy leisure activities such as table tennis and other games. This program facilitated the establishment of new collaborations and contacts among the participants.

We would like to extend our gratitude to all the speakers who contributed to both events for their presentations and willingness to share their knowledge and experiences. We also thank all the participants, both those who attended in person and those who joined us online.
