DESCRIPTION
This dynamic Blended Intensive Programme brings together behavioural science, social psychology, and digital communication to tackle real-world sustainability challenges across Europe.
Work alongside international, multidisciplinary teams to design evidence-based social media campaigns that address real sustainability challenges aligned with EU GREEN priorities.
The programme includes:
• Online prep sessions to get you campaign-ready
• One week on-campus at ATU Donegal (26–30 October 2026) for immersive, hands-on collaboration
• Post-mobility reflection and evaluation to fine-tune your skills and showcase your results
You’ll gain practical, in-demand skills in behaviour change theory, sustainable marketing, digital strategy, creative campaign design, teamwork, and intercultural collaboration, all while building your network across Europe.
Step in, collaborate, create, and leave with real-world experience that stands out on your CV and a chance to make sustainability go viral!
