📌 The HAWKING Project is one of the newly approved Capacity Building in Higher Education projects coordinated by the University of Montenegro. The participating countries in the project are Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Turkey, Serbia, Cyprus, Slovenia, and Portugal, while other partners from Montenegro include the Adriatic University, Faculty of Management Herceg Novi, and the Pedagogical Center of Montenegro.
📌 Inspired by the life and achievements of physicist Dr. Stephen Hawking, the project aims to address the lack of resources for supporting people with disabilities, particularly in the Western Balkans, which hinders their access to higher education. The goal is to bridge the gap in digitized education and provide support to students from vulnerable categories (with physical or mental disabilities), many of whom do not pursue higher education despite their talents.
