The objectives of the project will be met in the form of seven-days mobility in the partner countries, where the training courses will be held on the specific subject.

The aim of the “Video in Education Process” project is to broaden the scope of activities for adult education by introducing activities that use various forms of video-making, both in terms of methodology and ICT. Educators who master our techniques will be able to reach out to larger and more varied groups of people, as this type of activities work against digital exclusion and can be practiced even by unskilled and inexperienced individuals. We want to create a partnership of institutions that deal with adult education and those who work with audiovisual forms, and in this way establish methods that would answer the educational needs of the future. In the course of the project, we will prepare overview reports of various methods and techniques, design practical guidebooks based on pilot educational activities, and create on line tools with supplementary description for possible uses. There will be fifty direct participants of the project, but we also intend to reach out to educators, coaches, social workers, therapists and learners affiliated with institutions not involved in it in any direct way. The project activities will include workshops on methods and techniques, research & analysis work, followed by handbook publication. We intend to share our results and promote our educational concepts with as many individuals and adult education institutions as possible.

The main aim of this project was exchange of best practices and knowledge on workplace inclusion between mentors working with women with disabilities from partner countries. The European continent is aging. The average age of Europeans is about 40 years of age. Changes in the age structure of Europe increases the number of people with disabilities. Workplace inclusion thru mentoring was learning partnership between employees for the exchange of technical information, knowledge and skills about a specific profession or a particular job position. With the introduction of a mentoring programme, companies can guarantee that their employees can work fully with their knowledge and position. By learning in the workplace we mean to train persons with disability in all the skills needed to develop and fulfil their tasks at the workplace. The trained skills are within these five areas: Intrapersonal, Interpersonal, Task Development, Environment and Management. With this project we intend to upgrade the skills and competences of mentors in order to enhance workplace inclusion of women with disabilities.

“Youth SUCCESSors” project had as main focus the empowerment of European and International youth through the valorization and promotion of cultural and natural heritage.Considering the huge tangible and intangible cultural and natural heritage of each of the participating countries, young people can be considered as “rich successors”, but they need to learn how to manage these resources in a productive and sustainable way. Territorial promotion, sustainable tourism and many other sustainable entrepreneurial activities can be started around the preservation of environment and cultural heritage.The key of SUCCESS for our youth is to learn how to give value and take care of these resources but also to learn how to involve local communities in the protection and promotion of culture. In order to promote this objective, Y.S. consortium has organized 2 capacity building training courses for youth workers in order to train participants in entrepreneurial skills and in non- formal methodologies for skills development, and a Youth Exchange to involve directly young people in the implementation phase and to put in practice the new methodologies, 30 youth workers and 30 young people Italy, Greece, Spain and Argentina have been involved directly in the activities.All of them, at different levels, will be able to implement practically the knowledge obtained through their participation in the project, replicating methods and using tools and skills acquired.The consortium of Youth SUCCESSors was multi-actor and multidisciplinary, composed by Public Authorities, VET centers, NGOs and business representatives, all with a great experience in the field and covering complementary competencies. It was constituted from 5 partners from 4 countries, all facing the same difficulties related to youth unemployment and low participation to social and economic life. Info-days have been organized in each participating countries. High schools, NGOs, local authorities, private companies could meet partners and youth workers participating in the project in order to obtain information about project activities, results, possibilities of new collaborations in the development of entrepreneurial skills and raise awareness about the importance of preserving cultural and territorial heritage of each country. The publication online of 3 webinars and 2 OER e-Guide, 1 for youth workers and 1 for young people, has helped in increasing significantly the number of people able to acquire and spread the skills and best practices resulting from Y.S. project implementation, and to exploit the results.
