In the realm of academic initiatives, GRIT stands as a inspiration of empowerment and innovation. Operating under the slogan "Growth mind-set through Resilient Intelligent Technologies," GRIT embodies a vision aimed at enhancing non-cognitive skills among young researchers and students. Through the fusion of machine learning techniques, sentiment analysis, and gamification, GRIT endeavours to foster social awareness, civic commitment, and public engagement.
The journey of GRIT commenced with its Kick-off meeting (KOM) on April 20th and 21st, 2023, held in Italy and hosted by the University of Camerino. Partners from Italy, Romania, Germany, Lithuania, Spain, Greece, and Slovenia converged to embark on this transformative journey.
