Twinnet<br />
Improving mobility among European students<br />
Twinnet is a mobility programme that fulfills all the<br />
expectations of travel lovers. It is a programme<br />
where you can discover new cultures, make friends<br />
for life and get out of your comfort zone.<br />
This programme aims to promote and increase<br />
students mobility across Europe, through the<br />
exchange of good practices between 2, 3 or 4<br />
groups of students from different countries.<br />
It is through non formal education that students<br />
develop themselves and exchange good practices.<br />
Twinnet dreams bigger. Twinnet is a project that goes<br />
beyond the borders of pharmacy and it is much<br />
more than making exchanges among pharmacy<br />
students. It is inestimable, the positive outcomes<br />
can come out of interprofessional exchange. The Interprofessional<br />
Twinnet between different healthcare<br />
areas provide students with a different perspective<br />
on healthcare and allows them to exchange ideas,<br />
concerns and practices.<br />

The Portuguese – Norwegian Twinnet<br />
When people from two countries with a remarkable contrast decided to embrace the unknown and discover<br />
the differences between both cultures, it is when a new adventure “EPSA Twinnet Project Lisbon – Bergen”<br />
started. We had the opportunity to learn about pharmacy in Norway and noticed the gaps that clearly exist<br />
between different schools of pharmacy in these two entities of Europe. At the same time, we discovered<br />
a new world full of possibilities, which was extremely<br />
enriching for our professional future. Twinnet is also<br />
about cultural sharing and it is the perfect opportunity<br />
to broaden our horizons and increase our cultural Mariana Mousinho<br />
knowledge. The Norwegian team provided us with a<br />
quite rich social programme where we could not only<br />
Twinnet participant<br />
experience the mountains and Norway’s pure nature but<br />
also the best attractions and sights in Bergen.<br />
