The Communication Therapy Division and the EU Unit of the University of Malta is hosting an intensive ten-day programme under the auspices of the European Thematic Network for Speech Sciences which will end today.

Taking part are about 100 students and 35 members of the academic staff representing 13 European university speech-language therapy training programmes, hailing from Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Malta, Spain, Sweden and The Netherlands.

This intensive programme is hosted by a different university each year. This year's event brought students and staff together to discuss issues pertaining to "Building Bridges between Research, Assessment and Therapy in European Speech-Language Therapy Educational Programmes".

Participants had the opportunity to attend keynote speeches, lectures, seminars, research-based papers and workshops, daily. This intensive programme promotes the European dimension of scholarly exchange and academic co-operation. It serves as a study experience, while strengthening links with European neighbouring colleagues. It also provides opportunities to seek new partnerships not only for its young students but also for its staff members.
