Although we did not receive the first prize, we wholeheartedly embrace the judges’ message: “All finalists are winners.” Being recognised at a European level is a significant honor and a meaningful acknowledgment of our mission and impact within the educational community.
The event concluded with a networking reception, where we had the opportunity to engage with representatives of various organisations, members of the European Commission, and committee members who share similar goals and values. These exchanges laid the groundwork for a promising future of collaborations and joint initiatives.
The reactions of those who learned about our work were filled with enthusiasm, genuine interest, and praise—feedback that motivates us to continue expanding our efforts.
We extend our warmest thanks to the judges and the organising committee for highlighting our work, offering us a European platform to showcase our initiatives, and welcoming us so warmly.
