Virtual exchanges and climate education as a tool for European partnership development for SDGs

The traditional model of in-person education is evolving, with distance learning becoming increasingly popular. Virtual Exchange (VE) enhances interest in distance education by adding interactive elements. The University of Helsinki (UHEL) coordinates two EU ERASMUS+ VE projects: “Climate University for Virtual Exchanges” (CLUVEX) and “Una Europa Virtual Exchanges for Sustainability” (UnaVEx), running from 2023 to 2026. These projects address climate change and sustainable development. Additionally, UHEL leads the ClimEd project, which offers online training on climate services, adaptation, and mitigation, incorporating VE elements.
