🇪🇺✨ Last week, the HEAL project partners gathered in Vienna, Austria, for a productive and inspiring Transnational Project Meeting.

🤝 Hosted by our Austrian partner Equalizent, the meeting provided an excellent opportunity for all consortium members to review the progress of the project, coordinate upcoming activities, and strengthen our collaboration towards a more inclusive healthcare environment for d/Deaf people.

💡 HEAL aims to improve communication between healthcare professionals and d/Deaf individuals through the development of innovative training materials, a specialised healthcare glossary, and an accessible mobile application. Together, partners from 🇮🇹 Italy, 🇦🇹 Austria, 🇧🇬 Bulgaria, 🇹🇷 Türkiye, 🇨🇾 Cyprus, and 🇩🇪 Germany are working to make healthcare services more accessible and inclusive across Europe.

📋 The meeting was highly productive, featuring valuable discussions on research activities, app development, training content, and dissemination strategies. It was inspiring to witness the dedication and expertise of all partners working towards our shared goals.

🙏 A special thank you to Equalizent for their warm hospitality and excellent organisation of the meeting.

🏛️ One of the highlights was the wonderful cultural activity – a guided tour of the Austrian Parliament. It was a fantastic opportunity to learn more about Austria’s history, democratic institutions, and cultural heritage while strengthening the bonds within our international partnership.

🚀 We are excited about the next steps of the HEAL project and look forward to continuing our joint efforts to promote accessibility, inclusion, and equal access to healthcare for all.

🌱 Today, Nikanor had the pleasure of participating in the official launch of the “Green Business and Innovation” Programme under the Norwegian Financial Mechanism 2021–2028, organized by Innovation Norway 🇳🇴.

🤝 The event brought together companies, organizations, clusters, innovators, and stakeholders committed to accelerating the green transition through innovation, sustainable solutions, and international partnerships.

💡 It was an incredibly insightful and valuable experience, providing a deeper understanding of the programme’s priorities, opportunities, and expected impact. Equally important were the discussions and networking opportunities with potential partners, opening new perspectives for collaboration in green technologies, sustainability, and business development.

🌍 The launch took place within Green Transition Forum 6.0, one of the leading regional platforms for sustainability, green innovation, energy transition, and industrial transformation, bringing together business leaders, policymakers, investors, and innovators from across Europe.

🚀 Looking forward to the exciting opportunities and collaborations that will emerge from this initiative!

🎈Happy International Children's Day! 🎉

Today we celebrate the smiles, dreams and endless curiosity of children - that desire to discover, learn and believe that everything is possible. ✨

We wish all children - young and old - to maintain their desire for development, the courage to follow their dreams and the joy of new knowledge. 📚💡

We believe that every great achievement begins with inspiration, support and love for learning. Let us also point out curiosity, because it is precisely it that builds a confident future. 🌱❤️

🎈Честит 1 юни – Международен ден на детето! 🎉

Днес празнуваме усмивките, мечтите и безкрайното любопитство на децата - онзи стремеж да откриват, да учат и да вярват, че всичко е възможно. ✨

Пожелаваме на всички деца - малки и пораснали - да запазят желанието си за развитие, смелостта да следват мечтите си и радостта от новите знания. 📚💡

Вярваме, че всяко голямо постижение започва с вдъхновение, подкрепа и любов към ученето. Нека заедно насърчаваме любознателността, защото именно тя изгражда увереното бъдеще. 🌱❤️

📚✨ 24 май е повече от празник.
Това е денят, в който си припомняме, че силата на един народ започва от буквите, знанието и духа. 🇧🇬

Поклон пред делото на светите братя Кирил и Методий, пред учителите, будителите и всички, които всеки ден пазят българската култура жива. 🙏

Днес имаме още по-голяма отговорност – да създаваме общество, в което образованието, мисленето и развитието са истински ценности. 🌱📖

Нека пазим словото, защото чрез него пазим и бъдещето си. Честит 24 май! ❤️
