UACEG hosted the first transnational partner meeting of SmartGreenHE
On 12 and 13 October 2026, the University of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Geodesy (UACEG) in Sofia hosted the first transnational partner meeting of SmartGreenHE — “Smart land and green cities: New skills for university graduates”, funded by the Erasmus+ programme under KA220-HED — Cooperation Partnerships in Higher Education.
The partnership brings together UACEG as coordinator, Politecnico di Milano — Italy, Palacký University Olomouc — Czechia, Universidade de Lisboa — Portugal, and Selena Info Ltd. — Bulgaria. The project connects academic expertise with professional practice, focusing on the digital and green competences that students need for their future careers.
The working programme covered the partnership agreements, organisational responsibilities, financial coordination, and reporting arrangements. It also included discussion of the quality management, risk management and mitigation, and dissemination plans as practical tools to support joint implementation.
Other key topics included the analysis of skills needs and good practices, the development of teaching modules and learning materials, and preparation for the pilot activities. The programme also addressed the shared work schedule, task allocation, progress monitoring, and the partnership’s next steps.
SmartGreenHE will develop six university teaching modules, three short upskilling units and open educational resources with documented teaching datasets. Pilot activities will connect learning with real-world cases through two complementary tracks: land use and land governance, and green campuses and sustainable urban solutions. Evidence from the pilots will inform improvements to the materials and support their continued use in university teaching beyond the project’s lifetime.
