ZRS Koper Launched the PILLARS Project

On January 22, Science and Research Centre Koper (ZRS Koper), the Lead Partner of the PILLARS project (Scaling Impact via Policy, Projects, Processes and Professional Skills, ERASMUS-EDU-2024-PI-ALL-INNO, št. 101187220), successfully hosted a dynamic kickoff meeting. The event brought together all project partners to outline the next steps and develop a comprehensive plan for the first three years of this innovative initiative.

The PILLARS project aims to transform the role of the Impact Managers by identifying the key skills required for this position. It also seeks to develop a set of actionable guidelines for achieving meaningful impact, supported by recommendations that will be incorporated into an innovative app.

Led by the Center for Project Management at ZRS Koper, with Ana Šajn as the Project Coordinator, the initiative officially started on January 1, 2025, and will run three years, until the end of 2027.

With collaboration, innovation and integration at its core, the PILLARS project aims to set new standards for impact-driven management across various sectors.
