Project
The aim of the project SCI-CO+ is to contribute towards filling an existing gap in the current panorama, with interdisciplinary theoretical and practical training aimed at those who intend to start a profession in the field of museum scientific communication.
At the same time, it is known =, as a consequence of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, that the use of information and communication technologies and the need for easily accessible digital resources aimed at production, information, and knowledge has increased. The theme of “digital transition” has therefore become one of the central points of the political agenda. In the “Recommendation of the Council of 24/11/2020 on VET for sustainable competitiveness, social fairness and resilience”, it is clearly highlighted that digital skills must be the heritage of systems and people both in work and training. In this regard, we also recall the “New Skills Agenda for Europe” and the “Digital Education Action Plan”.
