This includes\, for example\, autism\, ADHD\, and dyslexia. This course explores neurodiversity in higher education by centering the voices\, experiences\, and perspectives of neurodivergent individuals. \n\nApplication deadline \n      00\n      Days\n      00\n      Hours\n      00\n      Minutes\n      00\n      Seconds \nApplications are now closed. \n															\n								\n												1.

Course Overview & Real-World Challenge \nThrough international collaboration\, reflective learning\, and real-life perspectives\, participants will explore inclusive teaching\, communication\, and assessment strategies\, designing practical approaches for creating more inclusive and supportive academic environments. Interdisciplinary and open to participants from all academic backgrounds. \nReal-World Challenge: Neurodivergent individuals continue to face systemic barriers in everyday life\, including within higher education. Universities often lack inclusive teaching strategies\, accessible systems\, and informed support structures. Addressing these challenges requires structural change\, awareness-raising\, and mutual learning across institutions. \nLearner Type: Students from ACE²-EU universities\, across all disciplines\, who wish to better understand neurodiversity and contribute to more inclusive higher education environments. \n															\n								\n												3. Learning Journey — Modular Learning Structure (3 Blocks) \nJoint Kick-off — 1. Exploring Neurodiversity in the University Context: Input sessions combining theory and real-life narratives; forum-based reflection; small-group discussions across institutions and countries. \n2. Mapping Barriers: International peer tandems analyse barriers in higher education using persona-based reflection\, barrier mapping\, and scenario analysis. \n3. Designing Change: Small intercultural groups co-create inclusive ideas\, tools\, or practices\, focused on practical\, transferable solutions. \nOnline Sessions: The online component introduces key concepts of (neuro-)diversity\, equality\, inclusion\, and accessibility in higher education. Activities include interactive lectures\, group discussions\, collaborative project work\, and reflective learning activities. Five joint synchronous online sessions take place during the course period\, complemented by asynchronous work. \nAssessment Approach: Process-based (reflective tasks\, forum contributions\, peer engagement) + Summative (final group project). \n															\n								\n												4. Learning Outcomes & Objectives \nParticipants will develop the ability to: understand the concept of neurodiversity and its relevance for inclusive academic environments · identify barriers\, stigmas\, and systemic challenges faced by neurodivergent individuals · apply inclusive teaching\, communication\, and assessment strategies · engage with authentic perspectives and lived experiences of neurodivergent individuals · reflect on their own teaching\, learning\, or institutional contexts and develop concrete improvement strategies. \nBy the end of the course\, participants will also be able to: explain key principles of neurodiversity and inclusive education · analyse institutional and pedagogical barriers in higher education · design inclusive teaching or support strategies grounded in real experiences · collaborate effectively in international and interdisciplinary teams · reflect critically on their own academic or professional practices. \n															\n								\n												5.

Workshop Aims & Thematic Focus \nThrough the workshop we aim to: \n\nStrengthen and develop the thematic focus and regional reach of the three existing Applied Research Centres (ARCs).\nBuild bridges between ARCs by addressing interdisciplinary or cross-cutting themes that promote cooperation across the alliance’s research domains.\nStrengthen and expand junior and senior researchers’ capacities to design high-quality\, impact-oriented research projects\, secure competitive funding\, and plan and manage projects effectively across their lifecycle.\nPromote meaningful cooperation within the Alliance by fostering interdisciplinary dialogue\, co-creation\, and joint initiatives that bridge the Alliance’s diverse research domains.\n\nThis three-day in-person workshop supports researchers in designing\, funding\, and managing high-quality\, impact-oriented projects on Healthy Aging and Community Interventions across the ACE²-EU Alliance. It focuses on expanding local initiatives into collaborative\, cross-disciplinary projects\, strengthening cooperation between institutions\, and aligning research with real community needs. \nCombining interactive sessions with hands-on project work\, it enables participants to engage directly with experienced project managers\, grant professionals\, and peers\, partners\, and stakeholders from across the ACE²-EU Alliance to co-create robust proposals and implementation plans. \nThematic focus areas of the workshop would be: \n\nOncology Patients During and After Treatment\nWomen’s Health in Menopause\nPatients with Musculoskeletal Disorders\nMental Health Promotion\nNutrition\, Healthy Diets and Sustainable Eating\nQuality of Life\, Intergenerational Relations and Demographic Ageing\n\n															\n								\n												3.
