The ESC-tension 2 project officially concluded on 30 April 2026, having successfully achieved its expected results. During the project life-cycle, the core partners supported the dissemination of the project outcomes through six multiplier events organised in their respective local contexts.
The dissemination events attracted significant interest from a wide range of Higher Education stakeholders, including universities, service providers, Erasmus+ National Agencies, organisations involved in the development of the European Student Card Initiative, and, most importantly, students. The strong participation and engagement recorded throughout the events demonstrate that, although the project has formally concluded, the work surrounding the European Student Card and its broader ecosystem will continue beyond the project’s lifetime.

The final event brought together accommodation providers, policy makers, and end users—namely students—fostering dialogue on the project’s results and their impact on the Higher Education sector.
