Joined For Sustainability

The 1FUTURE project aims to to improve regional capacities in implementing Green Deal goals within higher education system. The 1Future project builds up on the needs and the ambition to lead climate action in HEIs in the WB Region. Within the project, HEIs of the region will serve as the gear that connects different stakeholders for building climate resilient communities.

Erasmus + Program

The Capacity Building in Higher Education (CBHE) action supports international cooperation projects based on multilateral partnerships between organisations active in the field of higher education. It will support a successful green and sustainable global economic recovery in the third countries not associated to the Erasmus+ programme, linked to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Paris Agreement.

Advancing Curriculum Revision: Prof. Suzana Draganić’s Teaching Visit at CEPS on Energy Efficiency and Fire Safety

Posted on November 10, 2024

As part of the 1FUTURE project’s WP4 activities on curriculum revision, the University College “CEPS-Center for Business Studies” in Kiseljak, Bosnia and Herzegovina hosted a teaching visit by Assistant Professor Dr. Suzana Draganić from the Faculty of Technical Sciences, University of Novi Sad. Her lectures focused on integrating sustainable building design and fire safety principles into engineering curricula, ensuring students gain knowledge on energy-efficient and safe construction practices.

On Day 1 (November 6, 2024), Professor Draganić introduced energy-efficient building strategies, emphasizing the role of innovative materials, insulation techniques, and renewable energy sources in minimizing environmental impact.

On Day 2 (November 7, 2024), she addressed fire safety considerations in energy-efficient buildings, highlighting how new construction materials and methods must balance sustainability with safety regulations. Through an interactive, case study-driven approach, students analyzed applications of fire-resistant materials and modern safety standards.

This teaching visit played a crucial role in WP4’s goal of enhancing academic programs by integrating sustainability and safety components into engineering education.
