Monday, 30 September 2024 Delegation from the Estonian Academy of Arts EKA at the UP

A delegation from EKA (Estonian Academy of Arts), a T4EU partner, visited UP from 23 to 27 September with the aim to provide additional educational content on the topic of sustainable construction. Nine students gained valuable knowledge about the work of the InnoRenew CoE research institute and innovative approaches in the field of renewable materials and sustainable construction.

Eager for new knowledge, the students attended the summer school with already accumulated knowledge on the values and principles of the new European Bauhaus compass, engineering living architectural materials, environmental and ergonomic design criteria for renovation works and acoustics in space. In addition to training, seminars and workshops, they also had the opportunity to get to know the sights of our environment. They visited the Sečovlje salt pans and the hidden corners of Izola. On the last day of the summer school, they had the opportunity to listen to a guided architectural tour of the University of Trieste.

This marked the successful conclusion of another UP summer school, in which students gained three credits and pointed to an invaluable exchange of knowledge that students will surely be able to use in their working environment one day.
