The project “Stay Hungry. Stay Ergo.” brings together first-, second- and third-year Bachelor of science in Ergotherapy students for an afternoon of peer exchange. The initiative provides an opportunity to learn about the projects and activities carried out by fellow students, with the aim of enhancing what they have created together and providing an opportunity to gain new knowledge while being inspired by the creativity of fellow students.
Edition 2025

Practical and innovative projects were presented during the day, testifying to the commitment, creativity and passion that drive the Ergotherapy course.
