 We were honored to welcome Dr. Henno Havenga from the North-West University (Potchefstroom, South Africa) to our EORC as part of the ERASMUS+ KA 171, a collaborative initiative aimed at fostering academic exchange and innovation. The visit provided a valuable opportunity for deepening our partnership and exploring new avenues for joint development.

During the visit, Dr. Henno Havenga (picture: right) engaged actively with our students, offering insights, answering questions, and encouraging dialogue on current academic and professional challenges. This interaction was not only inspiring but also helped strengthen the connection between theory and practice. He also had an intensive exchanged with our ERASMUS+ coordintor Dr. Michael Thiel (picture: left).

A key focus of the visit was the intensification of cooperation between our institutions. Together, we worked on new program ideas and conceptual frameworks, laying the groundwork for future joint initiatives. The discussions were productive and forward-looking, reflecting a shared commitment to academic excellence and innovation.

Another highlight was the exchange of teaching materials and methodologies, which opened up new perspectives on the exchange. This mutual sharing will undoubtedly enrich our educational approaches and benefit both faculty and students.

We thank Dr. Havenga for the inspiring visit and look forward to continuing our collaboration in the spirit of shared growth and innovation.
