Visibility of eTwinning Projects Group July 2026 Newsletter
Rather than simply celebrating a finished product, guests unpacked the decisions behind it: how partners divided responsibilities, how pupils contributed to common outcomes, how digital tools served learning goals and how evaluation informed the next stage of work. This made quality criteria tangible. Participants could see that a strong project was not defined by the number of tools used, but by the purpose and coherence of the learning process. speakers examined the project ' s development and identified the elements that contributed to its quality. Three webinars were held in May 2026, with further sessions planned. The format created a space in which educators from neighbouring countries could compare practice, recognise shared challenges and learn from different educational settings.
Quality Without Borders An important step towards wider regional cooperation followed the Regional Workshop for eTwinning Ambassadors held in Croatia in September 2025. Conversations begun there helped shape a new regional webinar cycle launched in 2026: Kvaliteta bez granica: Inspirativni eTwinningovi projekti( Quality Without Borders: Inspiring eTwinning Projects). The cycle brought Croatian ambassadors together with colleagues and guest speakers from North Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro.
Each webinar paired an ambassador with a teacher whose project had received a National Quality Label. Rather than presenting only the final product,
The paired format was important. Ambassadors could connect each example with broader quality principles, while project authors could describe the everyday reality behind the application: negotiations among partners, moments when plans had to change, ways of involving pupils and evidence collected during the process. This balance between criteria and lived experience kept the discussions both rigorous and accessible.
This regional dimension was a natural continuation of the values that had guided the earlier sessions: openness, practical support and professional learning through dialogue. It also showed that the Croatian experience could contribute to a broader exchange without becoming a one-way transfer of expertise. Every participating country brought its own examples, questions and perspectives.
