REMODEL aims to strengthen BUU R&I capacity and skills through leveraging the experience and state-of-the-art knowledge and digital tools made available by twinning partners ULE and ATU in business model innovation (BMI). BUU staff will significantly enhance their management and administration skills, thanks to the capacitation and networking activities. A novel BMI laboratory (BMI Lab) will be created leveraging and combining the strengths of ULE consumer behaviour analysis laboratory and ATU DiceLabs, and will become instrumental for the execution of the R&I part of the project by applying the acquired knowledge and skills in consumer behavioural analysis, neuromarketing, research management, business innovation, leadership and entrepreneurship, developing business models for 10 Turkish SMEs in the hospitality sector in the context of COVID-19 pandemic. The BMI Lab will be an R&I pole for BUU academic staff and will bring benefits to SME in all sectors, contributing to business sustainability and employment creation. A long-term scientific strategy will be developed including staff exchanges, the definition of common joint R&I programmes related to BMI and the creation of an international master on business management in the hospitality sector. REMODEL goals are perfectly aligned to the expected topic outcomes and impacts, as will increase staff capacitation and scientific excellence and will provide a state-of-the-art BMI Lab to transform BUU in a leading institution in Turkey on BMI in the hospitality sector, boosting HE-Industry cooperation, the preparation and leadership of EU funded proposals, increasing its reputation within a defined network collaborators under a long-term cooperation strategy, and advocating novel R&I incentives schemes to Turkish funding agencies and policy makers. This strategy will sustain R&I, facilitate the exchange of students, researchers and academic staff, and increase the mobilization of resources at national and EU-levels.

The project includes activities and intellectual outputs to ensure the adaptation of individuals with disabilities to the higher education process and subsequent life processes, to increase their accessibility to fundamental rights, to raise awareness of disabled and non-disabled individuals on disability and disability rights.

"""Keeping youth safe from cyberbullying"" CB project created a positive impact on the persons directly or indirectly involved in proposed activities, resulting in the development and implementation of innovative practices at organizational, local, regional, national and European levels, regarding innovative approaches for addressing vulnerable youth, by providing improved practices in fighting against cyber bullying in online environments. In terms of priorities, CB project developed innovative outputs (O1, O2) and engaged into intensive dissemination and exploitation activities (E1-E5) of existing and newly produced products. As horizontal priority CB project addressed inclusive education, training and youth, actions combating discrimination and segregation by tackling cyber bullying.The second priority of the CB project was promoting high-quality youth work, namely supporting youth workers in developing and sharing effective methods in reaching out to marginalizes young people and in preventing racism and intolerance and any other kind of harmful activities that are known as cyber bullying among youth mainly in online environments. Bullying in schools has been around since schools were created and is a phenomenon of human behavior that is sadly familiar even as administrators, teachers and parents strive to eliminate it. The advent of social media has brought with it a new form of bullying, commonly referred to as cyberbullying or ""electronic aggression"", phenomenon that it is proving to be insidious, damaging and can result in irrevocable tragedies, which is why schools and other educational environments are scrambling to find solutions. Incidents of cyberbullying have increased because the use of social networking sites by youth is virtually universal. Cyberbullying causes deep and lasting damage, the exposure of victims is limitless and thus far more damaging. According to psychologists, the damage inflicted by cyberbullying can last into adulthood causing lifelong issues with low self-esteem, risk for addiction and other problems. Many of these incidents are the result of unchecked cyberbullying attacks on vulnerable students.Thus, CB Project aimed to deeper understand the dynamics of cyber bullying in online environments among youth, develop educational resources for professionals involved in youth activities in order to prevent CB type behaviors, develop youth skills to protect themselves from CB and disseminate findings among educational professionals.Specifically, CB project focused on: promoting positive ways of using technology for social interaction, raise youths’ awareness that they have the right and responsibilities to seek help to resolve cyber-bullying incidents, develop the skills required of them to manage youths’ cyber-bullying behaviour, encourage and help youth to positively use technology for social interaction and participate in cyber-bullying professional development opportunities.CB project results were integrative materials addressed to practitioners for preventing and dealing with this type of behaviors, mostly focused on youth population with “less opportunities”: migrants, refugees (Turkey), persons living with intellectual disabilities and cognitive disorders (Romania), persons suffering from some disorders as personality disorders, eating disorders (Belgium), persons at risk of being marginalized, poverty (Spain). These results will be the used as dissemination materials in 4 multiplier events dedicated to 120 youth, one learning activity dedicated to 40 professional staff and an International Conference addressing 80 teachers, educators, youth workers, counsellors, parents and other people interested in this phenomenon.Results were widely made available over the long term on projects page and group. Open access were given to resources we have developed to stakeholders, youth and everybody interested in the field. All partners ensured that projects innovations become integrated into the practice of own organizations and other relevant stakeholders."
