  • ON BOARD Eduprojects

    Halmstad meeting was critical in terms of setting the model for the Educational Innovation Network in each Transfer City. Each partner dedicated some time to reflect and understand how to adapt the structure and governance of the Educational Innovation Network in place in Viladecans to their own context considering: governance, scale and human and financial resources. Some reflection points were facilitated for participants to rely on. Work initiated in Halmstad continued in each city with the respective ULGs, and will be monitored and improved in the following transnational meeting.
