Project summary

The main objective of the project is to increase bilateral mobility of academic and educational staff between the Institute of Public Health and Medial Law, 1st Faculty of Medicine, Charles University in Prague and the Bergen University College. Project outcomes will include mobility activities (two seminars and two workshops in Bergen and Prague), and the preparation of a common manuscript for submission to peer-reviewed scientific journal as well as popular publications in national media. During these activities participants from both sides will have possibility to increase their skills and competences, to share best practices with colleagues and different stakeholders and to get inspiration for future cooperation. We expect that this project will become the background for development of long-term partnership in the field of health education and research with wide perspectives for further cooperation between the Czech Republic and Norway.
