Our organisation coordinates the VRCARE project as part of Erasmus+, with the goal to modernizing healthcare pedagogy. 

The primary goal of VRCARE is to change the traditional pedagogy of social and healthcare education focusing on children and elderly by introducing Virtual Reality as a way of teaching abstract topics such as interaction and ethics. VRCARE also aims to have a positive impact on children and elderly in care homes by introducing VR scenarios portraying daily real-life activities such as going out for walks, dancing and having a cup of coffee at a cafeteria. These scenarios can and will be utilized by the elderly and children, along with their caregivers or students, to engage and interact without needing to leave the nursing home or the childcare centre.

There are 7 participating organizations and centres from 6 countries in this project: Greece, Ireland, Spain, United Kingdom, Cyprus, Denmark.
