The College of Tourism & Hotel Management was honored to take part in this significant conference held at the Raddison Blu Hotel, Larnaca, from 12-14 November 2024. Organized by the Foundation for the Management of European Lifelong Learning Programmes (IDEP) and the Human Resource Development Authority (HRDA), the event brought together National VET Team Coordinators, VET Experts, industry representatives, VET Providers, and Universities from MedNet countries to discuss micro-credentials and their role in addressing skills shortages and fostering collaboration in vocational education and training.
The new partnership with the Municipal Library of Latsia and Geri is a wonderful example of how community organizations can promote education, lifelong learning, and healthy living together. Public libraries can provide valuable resources that encourage people to explore wellness, personal development, and healthier lifestyles. I also appreciate initiatives that make fitness more accessible to everyone, regardless of budget or access to a gym. Simple activities such as walking, stretching, and exercise without equipment can support everyday physical activity. Combining educational programs, community resources, health awareness, and accessible fitness opportunities can help create stronger, healthier communities while encouraging people to develop positive and sustainable lifestyle habits.
