Empowerment for Pandemias
Learning from COVID-19
Empower individuals and organizations in the healthcare sector to build
resilience and better handle pandemics and other crises in the future.
This project is funded with support from the European Commission.
Erasmus+ EU programme for education, training, youth and sport.
As of March 31, 2025, the empowerment4pandemias project has officially concluded. We warmly thank all supporters and participants for their valuable contributions. Through various events, trainings, and interviews, the project engaged nearly 400 individuals from the healthcare sector.
The digital tools developed, such as the self-assessment instruments and e-learning modules, remain freely and permanently available for public use.
If you are interested in attending a training or offering the programme within your own organisation — whether as a healthcare provider or educational institution— please get in touch via email at info[at]empower4pandemias.eu
The COVID-19 pandemic had an enormous impact on the public health system and put much pressure on health professionals.
empowerment4pandemias focuses on the importance of adequate knowledge and competencies of healthcare professionals and decision-makers to successfully cope with such events, and the need for individual and organizational resilience in dealing constructively with these challenges.
An assessment tool for individual and organisational resilience as well as a training programme to improve crisis response and preparedness competences during pandemics will be developed.
An innovative learning environment is created which allows for individualized learning and caters to different needs of learners.
