To successfully address today’s environmental and technological challenges, pupils from Vienna and Bratislava are joining forces through the Interreg SK-AT project HUBsburg-TwinSmart.

The project got off to an exciting start on 13 and 21 October 2026, when two Slovak school classes visited Vienna and explored the fascinating worlds of biodiversity and technology together with Viennese pupils in interactive workshops.

In the second semester, six Viennese lower secondary school classes will travel to Bratislava for a return visit, where they will explore the region side by side with their Slovak peers. Together, the pupils will explore ways to protect our natural habitats and engage with exciting technological challenges. By bringing young people together across borders, the project lays the foundations for a strong and sustainable region of the future.
