Virtual & Augmented Reality Trainers Toolbox To Foster Low Carbon Tourism & Related Entrepreneurship
The VINCI project aims to support the transition to low-carbon tourism and tourism-related entrepreneurship in EU Member States. To this end, VINCI brings together a range of partners from across Europe, who have been deliberately selected to ensure a good mix and balance between experts in climate change and sustainability, tourism, entrepreneurship, workplace training, curriculum development/ VET pedagogy and digital technologies (augmented and virtual reality, e-learning platforms). In addition, given that tourism and related economic activities vary across the geographical spread of Europe, the VINCI consortium brings together partners from northern Europe to the very south.
The project consortium consists of 7 partners from 6 different EU countries:
MECB – MACDAC ENGINEERING CONSULTANCY BUREAU LTD (Malta)
INSTITUTE OF TOURISM STUDIES (Malta)
Institut za turizam (Croatia)
UNIVERSITATEA POLITEHNICA DIN BUCURESTI (Romania)
Social Cooperative Enterprise Drosostalida (Greece)
Institut pro regionální rozvoj, o.p.s. (Czechia)
SIHTASUTUS STOCKHOLMI KESKKONNAINSTITUUDI TALLINNA KESKUS (Estonia)

PR1: Innovative VET Curriculum to Foster Low Carbon Tourism & Related Entrepreneurship
PR2: AR/VR enhanced Case-Studies on Low Carbon Tourism Activities
