The BRaVE Academy
Many projects in Europe engage in building resilience in their communities and work against extremist tendencies and polarisation in our society. Within the framework of BRaVE, we want to support projects to exchange and network across Europe, to learn from each other and to support their work with expertise.
Across five modules, we explore current topics of project work taking place in Europe. At the beginning of each module, international experts, researchers and practitioners will share their knowledge with the participants and encourage them to exchange ideas. In small groups, participants will deepen their discussions and substantiate networking ideas.
You can find information on all events in the BRaVE Academy on http://brave-h2020.eu/braveFair.
