“Beid, Hafsa, Melissa, Manessa, Mohammad… 25 children and their dedicated teacher. We wanted to find out who they are and become familiar with their skills and strategies, their joys, fears and hardships,” says director Ruth Beckermann. 

More than 60 percent of all children in Viennese primary schools do not speak German as their first language. At the same time, there is an acute shortage of teachers and supervisors. Such adverse conditions are the starting point of Ruth Beckermann’s documentary Favoriten, for which the Austrian filmmaker of The Waldheim Waltz and Mutzenbacher followed a Viennese primary school class for three years. 

The result is an astonishingly cheerful portrait of an unusual community. 

A film about teaching and learning and the often very surprising experiences somewhere in between.

In a remote location, Léo and Nicolas are creating Vivarium, a video game that shows the decay of a house strangely reminiscent of their own. 

As they navigate the challenging creative process, tensions rise, and the duo is put to the test.

OiRA design showing the tool's use in the education scetor

A recent survey by EU-OSHA shows that only around half of vocational students felt they received adequate safety training during their traineeships. 

On 14 November, our Finnish focal point Työterveyslaitos is organising a two-part webinar to support vocational educators and host organisations in improving safety practices.

The webinar will focus on simplifying the risk assessment process for schools and clarifying responsibilities between them and host companies, fostering a safer learning environment and collaborative risk management. It will also introduce the Online interactive Risk Assessment (OiRA) tools, providing guidance on conducting effective risk assessments without requiring extensive expertise.
