The project has seven objectives: Objective 1: Advancing Education for Sustainable Development (ESD): The project aims to further integrate ESD into university curricula through a blended learning approach, combining digital and in-person teaching. This process is expanding across Europe, particularly in geography. Objective 2: Collaborative Blended Learning in ESD: A long-term cooperative approach, using synchronous and asynchronous formats, has been tested in bilateral projects, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Objective 3: Intercultural Dialogue in ESD: The project facilitates dialogue to explore similarities and differences in intercultural ESD, a core aspect of intercultural education. Objective 4: Inclusion and Accessibility: The project ensures accessibility for students with financial or physical limitations and can be adapted by other institutions. Objective 5-7: These efforts will create a European network of university teachers, evaluate teaching concepts, and contribute to improving European higher education policies.
