🌍✨ Day 1 of our LTTA in Karditsa is a wrap—and what a day it was!

Educom+ opened its doors to an extraordinary gathering of young people from seven countries—Spain, Norway, Lithuania, Latvia, Romania, Turkey and Greece—all coming together under one roof in the heart of Thessaly for the Erasmus+ project “Youth’s Creative Voice in Modern Media Language”!

The day kicked off with a powerful identity mapping activity that broke the ice and built real connections across languages and cultures. From there, the energy only grew as participants dived into activities from the “Multi Minds Literacy Toolbox” (IO2), exploring, experimenting, and co-creating in the most wonderfully multimodal ways. The room was alive with creativity, curiosity and collaboration. 💬🎨🖥️

And to close a day full of learning? A trip to the breathtaking Lake Plastiras—where local flavours, laughter and even some water sports turned colleagues into friends. 🚣💙

Two more days of inspiration ahead. Stay tuned! 🔥
