ADHD-CARE
The main mission of the Erasmus+ KA2 “ADHD-CARE” project is to offer knowledge for the psychoeducation for people with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disease (ADHD) and highlight the importance of increasing the support to carers of people with ADHD with the ultimate goal of improving the lives of adult Europeans living with a brain disorder, such as ADHD. The aim is also to facilitate the exchange of good practices on successful ADHD campaigns in Belgium, Cyprus, Greece, Serbia, Turkey and beyond. In addition to the Serbian Brain Council as the coordinator, the involved partners are Belgian Brain Council, Greek Carers Network EPIONI, The Open University of Cyprus, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and Kemer County Directorate of National Education (Turkey).
Share4Brain
The Belgian Brain Council (BBC) will coordinate the Erasmus+ project “Sharing Good Practices for Brain Education in Europe” that is scheduled to start in December 2019. This project aims to enhance the skills and knowledge of patient advocates and stakeholders in the brain space (i.e. brain researchers, patients, carers, etc.) and as such enable them to raise awareness about the societal impact of brain diseases amongst decision-makers and the general public. The involved partners are the Greek Carers Network EPIONI, the Serbian Brain Council, the Spanish Brain Council and the Italian Consorzio per Valutazioni Biologiche e Farmacologiche.
