The EHECADI project Supports healthcare students from different disciplines through International Final Graduate Dissertations. The Project comprises of 8 project partners from 6 European Countries. Our partners represent universities, training organisations, governmental agencies and representatives of social service providers.

About EHECADI

Healthcare students today find themselves studying their profession in globalised and constantly evolving societies. Climate change, digitalisation, the embracing of increasingly diverse populations and the increased pressures of working within the healthcare system are all factors that students must be aware of before transitioning into the workplace.

With these challenges in mind, the European Health Care Final Dissertation (EHECADI) Project was launched in 2022 to enable healthcare students from different disciplines to address broad societal health issues such as healthcare equity, epidemic preparedness, underinvestment in healthcare workers or health needs of migrant populations within their studies.

Funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union, the project has developed this online Knowledge Hub. The Hub is an innovative, international, and collaborative digital model designed to tackle societal healthcare challenges through international final undergraduate dissertations.

This hub hosts the following resources:

Together the Knowledge Hub’s resources can be used by students and supervisors to support the completion of an international final undergraduate dissertation, a research-oriented project in which students can come closer to finding solutions to current health challenges.

EHECADI Community

A co-designed Community that will share knowledge between academia and other stakeholders as well as detect societal needs and steer the international final graduate dissertations towards them.

Digital Open Course

A co-designed digital open course for students and members of the public that will enhance responsible research, the acquisition of digital and transversal skills through the length of the degree. The course will empower its participants to be global-minded citizens who are more sensitised towards societal needs with easier access to employment opportunities.
