In mid-January, around 30 representatives from Austrian universities came together for the first time in Salzburg for the national networking meeting of the Inclusion ACAdemy. The event provided an opportunity for networking, thematic input, interactive group work and open discussions. Inclusion ACAdemy participants actively engage with the topic of inclusion and diversity in ongoing workshops (online and in person) and work together towards a more inclusive future in higher education.
Alexandra Bergmann from the International Office at the Medical University of Graz took part in the meeting. She is the coordinator responsible for Erasmus+ outgoing mobilities of students and staff of Med Uni Graz within the Erasmus+ program countries and is happy to provide individual advice on how a stay abroad can be made possible in all life situations, e.g. also for students with child(ren) as well as for students and staff with disabilities or a chronic disease (physical or mental). For these groups of people, an additional budget is available for so-called top-ups (higher monthly funds for a stay abroad) or inclusion support.
