In the framework of his invited 3-week visit to various Universities in Taiwan, the ENRICH Project Coordinator, Prof. Nicos Sifakis, presented ENRICH to a wide audience, including University professors, teacher educators, and undergraduate and postgraduate students. As Prof. Wenli Tsou has suggested, the ENRICH CPD Course can act, in the near future, as a model for the development and implementation of relevant programmes in Taiwan, under the auspices of the Taiwanese Ministry of Education. The ENRICH Project Consortium would like to thank Prof. Wenli Tsou and all of the Taiwanese colleagues for the warm welcome that our project has received in Taiwan and we look forward to our future collaborations!
