The global shift towards sustainable energy is reshaping industries, and the mobility sector is at the forefront of this transformation. Companies in transportation, logistics, and mobility services must find ways to reduce their carbon footprint while maintaining profitability and efficiency.  

Prio, Portugal’s leader in affordable energy transition and the country’s largest producer of biofuels from residual raw materials, is committed to accelerating this change. Recognizing that each company has unique energy needs, Prio aims to develop tailored B2B business models that drive the adoption of sustainable energy solutions in the mobility sector.  

This challenge invites students from all ECIU member Universities to explore innovative strategies that transform the energy transition into a business opportunity. Participants will analyze market trends, technological advancements, and regulatory frameworks to propose scalable, profitable solutions that help mobility companies transition to cleaner energy. Whether through new partnerships, service models, or technological innovations, this challenge is an opportunity to shape the future of mobility with Prio at the forefront of sustainable energy solutions.

## **Resilient cities**

Resilient cities are those that can withstand, adapt to, and recover from environmental, social, and economic shocks and stresses while maintaining essential functions, structures, and identities. Resilient cities prioritize sustainable and inclusive development, leveraging their assets and resources to build and maintain physical, social, and economic resilience. This includes investing in infrastructure, social services, emergency preparedness and response, and community engagement to build strong and adaptive communities that can thrive in situations of adversity. Resilient cities aim to ensure the safety, security, and well-being of their residents while promoting a sustainable and equitable future for all.

## The Challenge

Learners will work together to acquire skills and competencies related to the physiopathological basis of the reproductive system, infertility, and influence of lifestyle on reproductive health. The ultimate goal is to integrate and apply this knowledge in identifying and solving real problems in the area through the implementation of multicultural working groups. During this challenge, priority will be given to innovative and experimental teaching models, such as challenge-based in a blended learning approach that combines virtual and face-to-face mobility

## Impact

The participants will develop cross-cutting and transdisciplinary knowledge in reproductive health lifestyle. This challenge will also promote new forms of international mobility that allow an increase in the number of individuals with an international mobility experience in higher education, while also promoting collaborative and cooperative work skills through the experience of active teaching and learning methodologies. This intensive blended program is aligned with the strategic development plan of the Department of Medical Sciences, within the scope of its internationalization policy, as well as with the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations, namely for Good Health and Well-being (Goal 3), Quality Education (Goal 4), Gender Equality (Goal 5), and Reduced Inequalities (Goal 10).

# Biometrics

Biometrics goes far beyond facial recognition and an individual's fingerprint. It is a technology that involves security and innovation and results in a pattern identification solution that confirms a person's identity by combining biological and/or behavioral characteristics, with biometric characteristics. Biometric characteristics are a very convenient way to authenticate a person, as they have a high degree of security and cannot be stolen, forgotten, or lost. In any business sector where customer identification is part of everyday activities, such as in banking, financial services industries, healthcare, and telecommunications, biometrics significantly reduces the time consumed in identifying customers/members/patients or identity selection. Taking advantage of the relevance of Biometrics for technological advancement and digital transformation of the industrial sector, this micro-credential aims to qualify graduates for the implementation and use of biometrics systems in their various applications.
