. @towchedeu.bsky.social is proposing a NEB satellite event! Young people across Europe are among those most affected by the housing crisis. 🏘️. This is a call for #youth participants on affordable housing across Europe!
"ESD" is a fancy acronym for a simple idea: Learning how to live on this planet without breaking it (or each other). 🌍💫 #TOWCHEDproject #ESD #SustainableDevelopment #MuseumEducation #NewEuropeanBauhaus #GlobalGoals #ClimateAction
If the law says "he," is it really for "everyone"? ⚖️🤔 For #IWD2026, the TOWCHED project is looking critically at Article 15 of the ICESCR. While it guarantees cultural rights for all, the language remains anchored in a masculine past. Let's edit the future. ✍️✨ #TowchedEU #WomensDay
📢 Dissemination Update! We are pleased to announce the release of "Cultural Heritage at a Crossroads," a publication stemming from the Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) hosted by the Universitat de València. 😊 #Dissemination #CulturalHeritage #HorizonEurope #FORTHEM #DigitalTransformation
Introducing our weekly Implementation Blog! First up: A recap of our day at CEIP La Coma🌿 Students in 4th & 6th grade turned waste into wonder by crafting recycled paper. Next up? Turning them into notebooks! 📔✨Read the full story here: towched.eu/implementati...
In February, the TOWCHED team is heading to Latvia for our next technical meeting. We’re deep-diving into the next phase of the project and focusing on topics such as implementation, evaluation or replicability🏛️🌍 Looking forward to a productive (and likely snowy) week of collaboration! ❄️
Building a more inclusive future for European heritage in 2026 🤝 At TOWCHED, we believe cultural collections are the heart of lifelong learning. This year, we’re taking giant leaps toward making that a reality for everyone!
Happy #HumanRightsDay! 🎉 Human rights are the core of the TOWCHED project, focusing specifically on the right to education, cultural rights, and the rights of the child. 👧🏽👦🏼 #MuseumCollections #SDG #EducationforSustainableDevelopment #museums #MyDayMyRights #ForEveryChild
🚫 MYTH: Only specific museum collections can be used for ESD. ✅ REALITY: Every artifact tells a story about sustainability. There are no limits. History already holds the lessons—we just need to know where to look. #TOWCHED #ESD #SustainableEducation
Today, as we celebrate #WorldChildrensDay, we’re reminded of how creative and artistic activities can boost children’s well-being, support their development, and truly enrich their lives. ✨

At TOWCHED, children and young people in all their diversities are not just included — they’re at the core of everything. Through co-creation and participatory approaches, they’re involved in shaping educational activities that reflect their needs, identities, and experiences 📚✏️
For #EUACDE's #DoctoralDebate, Ann MacPhail and Peter Hanenberg report on discussions they had with Eurodoc's Ambassador Programme participants preparing the next generation of researchers to become ambassadors for European higher education’s values https://bit.ly/3JxsW1P #AcademicSky #Research
What does it mean to put human rights at the center? In practice, this means co-creating with children, young people, educators and cultural professionals in all their diversity to make sure learning spaces reflect real needs – and leave no one behind. 🤍 @towchedeu.bsky.social
