On 13 May, Petre Shotadze Tbilisi Medical Academy participated in the international online cluster event “Building Resilient Minds for a Digital Future”, organised within the framework of three Erasmus+ projects: BURN, Digi-CHange, and UkraineDigiTrans.

The event focused on resilience, adaptability, and digital transformation in higher education. Digi-CHange project was represented by Professor Ekaterina Kldiashvili, who delivered a presentation titled “While Algorithms Learn, Human Thinking Still Matters.” The presentation introduced the Digi-CHange perspective on digital transformation in healthcare education and emphasised that artificial intelligence, digital tools, simulations, and data-based learning should strengthen, not replace, human thinking, professional judgement, teamwork, and patient-centred care.

Professor Kldiashvili highlighted that Digi-CHange supports the digital transformation of medical and nursing education through curriculum reform, Digi-CHange Labs, AI-based simulations, digital health competency assessment tools, and awareness-raising activities. A key message of the presentation was that future healthcare professionals should be prepared not only to use digital tools, but also to interpret them responsibly and critically. The event also included presentations from the BURN and UkraineDigiTrans projects, an invited talk on data in medical education, and a panel discussion on changing educational pathways in Ukrainian and Georgian higher education institutions.
