UNIC VIP Fund Call
OVPLT, in collaboration with UNIC, is delighted to launch the second round of applications for Virtual and International Educational Projects – the VIP fund.
The first round of the VIP call saw 8 UCC projects awarded funding to engage in virtual exchange activities with UNIC consortium partners. Congratulations to all colleagues on their success.
The VIP Fund aims to support virtual or blended international educational activities across UNIC university partners. Virtual Exchange refers to a set of learning activities that connect students and teachers from different locations by allowing them to collaborate on tasks or projects online. More detailed information and a step-by-step guidance on developing Virtual Exchange, as well as practice examples can be found in the UNIC Mobility Handbook from page 33 onwards.
