He is also the co-coordinator of the project Erasmus + Digital Academy in Teaching Practice for a Seamless transition from Pre-service to In-service (DigitalTA), which has just won a prize at the Triple E Awards. Lidia Criado is a professor with extensive experience who has collaborated with the project in the role of mentor. Finally, Daiana Grande is a teacher and director of the Santísimo Rosario School in Monteros, Argentina.

This session kicks off FUNIBER’s Faculty Well-Being Program, an initiative led by Dr. Thomas Prola. The project arises from the collaboration agreement between the Universidad Europea del Atlántico and the Social Action area of the Iberoamerican University Foundation (FUNIBER), as well as the partners of the Digital Teacher Academy project, and will last for three years. It is a comprehensive approach focused on professional care to increase teacher well-being and reduce teacher attrition.

The event, held as part of the celebration of Teachers’ Day, will also present a toolkit for mutual care within the teaching community, with the aim of socially transferring the results of the research conducted and providing resources that promote the well-being of teachers.

The conference is free-of-charge and open to anyone interested in the topic. It will be broadcast live in each country where FUNIBER is present. Check the broadcasting schedules in this link.
