“Apotheosis of labor” – the famous mosaic by the artist Lazar Lichenoski celebrates the development of labor and humanity. HONEST WORK THROUGHOUT THE CENTURIES CREATED CULTURES AND CIVILIZATIONS AND THE DIGNITY OF A TRUE MAN is the main message of this work, also representing by Lichenoski’s life motto.

Inspired by the idea behind his work, we invite artists in the territory of the Republic of North Macedonia to create a kind of digital extension of Lichenoski’s mural, “Apotheosis of Labor”, using digital tools, meaning:

• A new digital work that will continue the series of mosaics – endings with the story of the woman marking the 20th century – with its vision of the continuation of the development of labor today.

Conference within Erasmus Days – 2022.
At the official opening, there were welcoming speeches 🇪🇺 Deputy Ambassador Julian Vassallo, Vice Prime Minister for European Affairs Bojan Maricic and Director of the National Agency for European Educational Programs and Mobility Marko Gjorgievski.

The European Commission is launching the fourth European Universities call under the Erasmus+ programme.

This new Erasmus+ call for proposals will continue the rollout of the European Universities initiative with a record total budget of €384 million.

The European Universities’ work encompasses all higher education institutions’ missions of education, research, innovation and service to society. These alliances have diverse models of systemic, structural and sustainable transnational cooperation which reinforce the quality, performance, attractiveness and international competitiveness of higher education across Europe, for the benefit of their students and staff, while promoting our democratic values.

The Erasmus+ 2023 European Universities call is now open to the participation of higher education institutions from all Western Balkans countries as full partners in the alliances.

Also, a Seal of Excellence will be awarded to proposals which have been assessed and scored as high quality (above 80 points) but that cannot be funded under Erasmus+ due to lack of available budget.  The seal is a quality label that recognises the quality of the concerned proposals and helps them seek alternative funding at national level.

How to apply

Find the call for proposals for the 2023 Erasmus+ European Universities on the EU’s funding and tenders portal.

Deadline

The deadline for applications submission is 31 January 2023.

The call is an open competitive call based on qualitative criteria.
