If you did, this is the course for you! For four days we will study together DEORish and translated it together in plane English. Just for clarification: DEORish is a dialect of Erasmish (another language that could do with a little bit of translation here and there) that stands for Dissemination and Exploitation of Results. Or in other words… how to show the world what a wonderful job we are doing by changing lives and communities around us. One at a time, by the means of effective learning.

The Sound of Projects aims to put you and your projects in sync with the world in which each plays with its own instrument creating a symphony by carefully correlating the DEOR activities with the implementation of an Strategic Partnership Erasmus+ project. The music sheet is about the specific terminology related to DEOR (dissemination, exploitation, visibility, promotion, results, etc.) while the violins and drums are the activities, results, communication tools or the stakeholders.

This 4-days event will bring together 50 Erasmus+ musicians (applicants and potential beneficiaries from different sectors – youth, school education, VET, adult education, higher education), offering space for networking and developing future collaborations under Erasmus+ strategic partnership projects.
