Our Future. sets out what the International Council of Nurses (ICN) wants for nursing in the future in order to address the global health challenges and improve global health for all. We need to learn from the lessons of the pandemic and translate these into actions for the future that ensure nurses are protected, respected and valued. The Our Nurses. Our Future. campaign will shine the light on nurses and on a brighter future, moving nurses from invisible to invaluable in the eyes of policy makers, the public, and all those who make decisions affecting the delivery and financing of health care. As well as learning lessons to support nurses, the campaign will also look at how we must strengthen our health systems to address growing global health demands. It will capture key actions that ICN believes are essential to address both the profession and health systems and which are, of course, mutually beneficial and reinforcing. Together our future depends on every nurse, every voice, to not only be on the front lines of care, but also be on the front lines of change. The ICN, which represents millions of nurses worldwide, said that this theme sets out what the federation wants for nursing in years to come to address global health challenges.

    MCAST (IICT) is hosting the next transnational for the GOLEM project. The meeting will focus on the development of a training kit to enhance programming skills through gamification. This meeting will bring together educational experts from Malta, Lithuania, Macedonia, and Latvia. This collaborative initiative aims to revolutionize teaching methods. The meeting will feature engaging workshops where participants will exchange knowledge and share best practices. The goal is to create a comprehensive training kit that empowers both educators and students. By leveraging the popularity of Minecraft, an immersive and interactive game, students can learn coding concepts in an exciting virtual environment. This transnational meeting will foster global perspectives on education and facilitate cross-cultural collaboration. Follow us for updates and highlights as we embark on this international initiative to transform programming education. #TransnationalMeeting #EducationRevolution #GamifiedLearning #MinecraftCoding #GOLEM
