Panepistimio Macedonias

panepistimio macedonias

In a rapidly changing world, the University of Macedonia must be at the forefront of innovation, openness and excellence under terms of social sensitivity and inclusive education. Being in the seventh decade of its operation, the University of Macedonia is evolving into an open, innovative and daring Higher Education Institution, giving priority to teaching and research based on clear and transparent quality criteria. Simultaneously, it is an organized, operative, clean institution with care for its students. It bears its own identity that is recognized by both the local and the wider Greek community. The University of Macedonia goes hand in hand with the developments of society and the international academic community in order to suit the needs of the new era being based upon the values of communication, cooperation, equal treatment and open society. It is our firm belief that no development matters unless it becomes an integral part of the wider society. Openness for the University of Macedonia shall mean close cooperation with the city’s bodies and primarily with Municipal Authorities and the Prefecture, and harmonization of its actions for the shared objective to make the city of Thessaloniki the metropolitan center of the Balkan Peninsula. In this direction, through the enhancement of its participation and its academic programs, the development of research collaborations, the organization of scientific conferences and cultural - educational exchanges, our University will contribute to the international academic community and the attraction of foreign scientists and students. Openness shall also mean close cooperation with economic bodies and the industry, exchange of ideas and establishment of a framework through which the University, market and society will be engaged in a constant communication and interaction.

Our first meeting of 2023 occurred Wednesday, Jan 11! Our guest artist demonstrating was Roxsane Tiernan. Roxsane Tiernan was born and raised in the Greater Vancouver area. She became an international educator teaching high school and marketing for the district in Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan and Mexico. She is a Member of the Federation of Canadian Artists showing in over 70 juried shows. She studied Applied Arts at Capilano College in the mid-seventies and started painting seriously in 2000 when she joined the FCA and Burnaby Artists Guild. She really likes the challenges of interpreting local nature using chigiri-e—Japanese torn paper collage. She gives workshops and lesson in this technique even in Finland or Manitoba. Roxsane joined the North West Collage Society which is centered in Seattle. Her work was featured on their posters and invitations. She has won several awards locally and internationally mostly for mixed media or chigiri-e pieces. You can find her work on Facebook Roxsane K.Tiernan; on both the Burnaby Artists Guild and South Delta Artists Guild facebook pages as well as roxsanetiernan.com on My Art Club.com; www.roxsanetiernanartandsoul.com and https://roxsanetiernanartandsoul.com/writing.

Touchstone

Cheadle

Our passion is to secure the rights and entitlements of the people we work with and for. We aim to make the cities we work in more culturally competent and better able to meet the needs of those vulnerable people who live there. We are also acutely aware of our perceived position of strength as a major provider of mostly BME services and we want to share our resources, knowledge and position of influence with smaller, grass roots organisations. Touchstone was born out of an identified need for friendship and community in South Leeds in 1982. A Social Worker, Sylvia Landells, and CPN, John Clare, saw that large numbers of vulnerable people were left isolated and distressed out of hours and at weekends, so they set up a “weekend club” which was to grow into Touchstone. More than 30 years later, we provide mental health and wellbeing services to over 10,000 people a year, whilst also working across communities to grow their confidence and capacity to demand the services and positive experiences they are entitled to. Touchstone provides a range of innovative services that improve health and wellbeing. Touchstone is strongly committed to equality, independence and choice. Touchstone’s services are shaped by the needs of service users. Touchstone staff are committed, resourceful and knowledgeable. They reflect the multi-cultural community in which Touchstone operates.

Valley College

A very warm welcome to Valley College, situated on Ewood Campus. I am delighted to be Head of Valley College , an educational environment which is focused on its mission statement 'Preparation for Adulthood, Citizenship and Employment' (PACE). It is so important to ensure all learners gain the knowledge, skills and understanding they need to lead confident, healthy, independent lives, and become informed, active and responsible citizens in society. Having been appointed as Head of Valley College and Ewood Campus in September 2021, I would like to share some information about the provision for Valley College learners. Valley College learners are supported by skilled and familiar staff and alongside their advocates, create a bespoke individualised pathway to ensure future aspirations are achieved. Learners are encouraged to take part in a wide range of activities across and beyond the curriculum, contributing fully to the life of the college and their communities. Learners have the opportunity to reflect on their experiences and understand how they are developing personally and socially, tackling many of the spiritual, moral, social and cultural issues that are part of growing into adulthood. Within Valley College, learners are able to develop new skills and access the community, and sessions are focused on preparing learners for adult life. Valley College ensures all learners leave with relevant qualifications (if appropriate) and gain their desired aspiration destination. We work together with our learners to increase their independence, so they can take more control over their lives. Valley College is a friendly place where learners can develop interests and gradually gain the skills and confidence they need to move on to the next stage of their lives, preparing them for adulthood, citizenship and employability.
