The UNI-T Academy project (eUropeaN cIvic Teacher Academy) is a contribution to improve the education of teachers in Europe, which cannot be done without creating partnerships of teacher education and training providers in several countries. The main objectives of our project are to enhance mobility, European civic awareness, multilingualism and cultural diversity consciousness of teachers, in accordance with EU policy in order to support a European teacher development. Based on the solid partnerships tied within the European university CIVIS, we would like to improve the European dimension and internationalisation of teacher education through innovative and practical collaboration, with a focus on the key priorities of the European Union such as learning in the digital world, sustainability, equity, and inclusion. We will implement different models of mobility (virtual, physical, and blended) for student teachers, pre-service teachers, in-service teachers and teacher educators. These mobilities will be integrated in a dynamic of targeted activities led by the different partners and recognised by a system of open badges. In parallel, we will also develop sustainable collaboration between teacher education providers based on 1) models of blended learning, 2) International teacher’s summer schools, 3) the development of communities of practices and 4) action-research projects.
