The MEDEA Academy is an annual international event that provides learning courses and practices sharing in the field of health and social sector innovation. It is organized by MEDEA in collaboration with reference international partners. Each year, a specific topic is covered that embraces a multidimensional perspective: enabling technologies, policies, and sustainability. The red thread over the years is the integration of local dimension and international scenario and the organization of dedicated events, particularly Summer Schools, alternating with sponsorship of international events.
