This is possible thanks to UOC R&I and its 50 plus research groups\, as well as the eLearning Innovation Center\, which drives educational innovation at the UOC. With more than 100\,000 graduates\, it is now one of the biggest universities in Spain. \n\n\n\nEDEN Digital Education Leadership Academy will be organized in a modern UOC campus located in an ex-industrial creative and cultural Poblenou area allowing an easy reach to the Barcelona central attractions and a walking distance to the beach.  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nUniversitat Oberta de Catalunya\, The U building Carrer del Perú\, 52\, 08018 Barcelona. See the location on Google Maps\, in Room U1.1 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nPlan Your Stay in Barcelona \n\n\n\nAs Barcelona is such a travel destination hotels are not interested in prebooking rooms for participants. There are many different hotels and other types of accomodation around the venue. Therefore\, we advise prebooking yourself a most convenient type of accomodation as soon as you plan your trip to DELA. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nEDEN DELA Social Programme \n\n\n\nEDEN DELA Dinner – November 5 at 19.00 \n\n\n\nEDEN DELA 2025 Tour to Casa Vicens \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nEDEN DELA 2024 Visit to Gaudi Casa Vicens \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEDEN DELA 2023 Visit to Casa Milà from Gaudí
