EUniWell (European University for Well-Being) has announced the 4th EUniWell Seed Funding Call and a EUniWell Summer School for students and health professionals from partner universities.

Through top level education and research, EUniWell (European University for Well-Being) aims at creating an inclusive and diverse environment that allows citizens to be well-educated, socially responsible and healthy. In the longer term, the collaboration aims to define how a modern, civic and entrepreneurial European University can support social and individual well-being in a global setting.

EUNIWELL SEED FUNDING CALL

EUniWell Seed Funding Programme, with already 22 funded projects, constitutes one of the most prominent activity hubs of co-creation and collaboration within the alliance. Projects bringing together researchers, students, educators and administrative staff, and covering diversified fields such as health research, entrepreneurship, pedagogical innovation or intercomprehension between languages are currently being implemented.

EUniWell has decided to launch a fourth Seed Funding Call to further stimulate concrete and innovative cooperation initiatives that contribute to promote well-being in education, research, policy development and student life in our alliance.

It is also a great pleasure that the University of Murcia, which recently joined the EUniWell consortium as its eighth member, will participate in this 4th Seed Funding Call. The decision by the University of Murcia to take part in this new call underlines its strong commitment to and enthusiasm for EUniWell. Consequently, this call for proposals is an excellent opportunity to start integrating educators, researchers, administrative staff and students from the University of Murcia into EUniWell activities.
