On January 16th and 17th, we launched the Erasmus+ project eHelped-IT with a fantastic kick-off meeting in Bucharest, Romania! 🎉

💡 What is eHelped-IT all about?
This project aims to:
✔️ Raise awareness about the importance of eHealth Literacy (eHL) in medical and allied health fields.
✔️ Assess the eHL skills of medical and allied health students using innovative self-assessment tools.
✔️ Enhance students’ eHL skills through hands-on strategies and interventions.
✔️ Provide evidence-based eHL recommendations for policy decision-makers.
✔️ Share the project’s results for a new and effective approach to eHL.

🎓 During the kick-off, each partner presented their assigned work packages, and the collaboration was inspiring. We also had the pleasure of touring the university, guided by our incredible hosts, who made us feel so welcome. 🤝🌟
