Visit to Athens and Tirana
Visit to Athens and Tirana
Location: Athens School of fine Arts and University of Arts in Tirana
Time: 2023. March 13th - 17th
A four-member delegation from our University paid a presentation visit to the two new candidate institutions in the framework of the EU4ART joint education project. If the European Commission's call for proposals for further funding, launched in January, is successful, the Athens (ASFA) and Tirana (UART) art universities will join the consortium led by the Hungarian University of Fine Arts as full partners.
After discussions with the leaders of the University of Athens, we travelled to Tirana to visit the Albanian partner institution. In Tirana, in the presence of the press and media, a meeting was held with the management of the University to discuss the details of the accession and to introduce the current partners of the Alliance. Afterwards, we gave a presentation to an audience of about 200 people on the current state of EU4ART, the principles of joint education and the testing of the upcoming EU4ART Summer School, which will be jointly organised in April at the MKE Art Campus in Tihany, where we will also host students and teachers from the two new partner universities.
