Sustainable innovation is the cornerstone of economic growth and development of regions and nations, as well as of organizational competitiveness and success. Innovation is a complex process that relies on individuals and often implies social activities based on interaction with others. Higher Education (HE) is expected to prepare innovative and teamwork-competent individuals. However, it has been noted that, so far, HE has not really addressed the question of how to train innovative college students capable of working in teams. To face such challenges, incorporating active teaching and learning methodologies, such as game-based learning (GBL), could be of great utility, as well as conducting much more research about the effect of teamwork-related factors on IWB, such as teamwork engagement (TWE) and teambuilding (TB). Under this background, our aim was to test the predictor effect of teamwork competence (TWE) on IWB, exploring the moderating role of TWE and TB in a sample comprising 142 college students of Health Sciences and Social Work. Our obtained results, through a multiple additive moderation analysis, showed that TWC positively predicted IWB. Moreover, this effect was moderated by TWE and TB. Therefore, these findings set light around how to foster IWB in HE.

La conocida como regla de las tres erres es una práctica extendida en la actualidad para tomar conciencia de que los recursos con los que contamos son escasos. Sin embargo, en la Edad Media estos parámetros formaron parte de la cotidianeidad, ya que el objetivo principal fue, por un lado, alargar el ciclo de vida de los bienes de consumo mediante reparaciones y remodelaciones y, por el otro, reutilizar y reciclar materias y subproductos generados en determinadas actividades industriales y agroganaderas. En esta contribución trataremos de incidir en la capacidad de la sociedad medieval para analizar el entorno con un criterio de circularidad y para desarrollar modelos de negocioque se basaron en la reutilización de bienes como el mercado de objetos de segunda mano, otra actividad secular que ha experimentado un boom en la actualidad al calor de la nueva ética social y medioambiental.

The ‘No Limits Sport for Gifted Children’ project (Erasmus+ Sport) was designed to investigate and promote sports participation among gifted and talented (GT) youth, addressing their specific barriers and needs. Through a strategic collaboration between institutions from Spain and Latvia, the project was structured into four phases: preparation, implementation, evaluation, and dissemination, including activities such as training workshops for coaches, needs analysis, and a pilot experience with GT children. The results showed that 84% of GT youth participated in sports over the past year, with basketball, athletics, and football being the most popular sports. Their main motivations were fun (34,6%) and enjoyment of sports (19,6%). However, GT youth exhibited lower general interest in sports (48% reported little or no interest) and higher inactivity rates (16%) compared to the general population. Furthermore, coaches demonstrated limited knowledge of this group's needs, with 51,5% reporting familiarity but lacking specific training. The pilot experience involved 70 young participants in activities such as orienteering and parkour, achieving high levels of satisfaction. Additionally, workshops trained 142 coaches and educators, who positively assessed the usefulness and applicability of the training. The project highlights the importance of inclusive strategies combining awareness, specialized training, and adapted sports environments to maximize the physical, cognitive, and emotional benefits of sports for GT youth. This underscores the role of sports as a cornerstone for their holistic development.
