The iNSPIRE Social Entrepreneurs Network (iNSPIRE) project will create a learning HUB that will develop inspiring apprenticeships processes, based on the identification of transferable lessons from the formal and informal learning environment to support the development of a social entrepreneurship network in several European countries (Turkey, Portugal, Ireland, France, and Belgium). Ireland and Belgium have already an important background in social entrepreneurship and will contribute to creating a strong partnership to support and develop a European social cluster. Evidence from Ireland and Belgium shows that social entrepreneurship demonstrates great potential for employment growth. The iNSPIRE goal is to improve skills for social entrepreneurs and increase the potential for social enterprise creation. The project will engage diverse stakeholders in dialogue and cooperation including non-profit associations, universities, training providers, social innovation organizations, research centers, and public agencies. It will capture the experience, including learning mechanisms, approaches to management, and networking competencies from other projects in the social field, mainly developed by the partners, for instance, capacity building.

Athena Project aims to develop the digital skills of university professors, reinforcing their response to the challenges that universities face today and in the future. The project seeks to foster cooperative learning environments, making them transformative and inclusive through the adoption of new technologies, such as e-learning, gaming platforms, virtual and augmented reality, systematically modeled to activate key competences in digital learning. The project will create models that teachers can adopt and adapt to their classes, using different pedagogical approaches.
