"The project ""Strenghen Educators's competeNcies to Increase seniORs active ageing and participation - S.E.N.I.OR."" is based on the idea to exchange good practices and ideas to communicate European values between senior citizens. The project was elaborated considering the local and European contest analyses.S.E.N.I.OR.is in line with European context: according to a recent survey done by the European Commission, by 2025 the European population over 65 will represent over 20% of the total population, registering a dizzying increase especially between people over 80 years old. At European level the debate on the inclusion of older people has officially started to animate the political debate since 2012 when the European Commission decided to dedicate the year to the theme of ""active aging"", highlighting how it was necessary to overcome the vision of an old age represented as a passive phase of existence, characterized by needs for assistance and social marginality. The European Commission also underlined how elderly people have a fundamental role in the maintenance and transmission of cultural heritage: they own the memories of the past and of the socio-cultural environment (things, places, people and experiences) so they can be an important source of information for sharing and transmitting their knowledge to younger people.The specific objectives of the project are the following:-to foster the mutual knowledge between the 3 associations taking part in the partnership, in order to create a network that can be used also at the end of the Erasmus + project for the promotion of educational activities for adults and especially for people over 65 years old;- to promote the deepening of 3 different themes, starting from the individual experiences gained by the 3 different associations - realization of 3 training events each one addressed to 9 different educators with the aim of providing them with specific skills and knowledge relating to the 3 topics best described in the LTT box;- to transfer the skills learned during the transnational training events to at least 45 other educators (15 per association belonging to the consortium);- to raise awareness among the associative world and civil society on the need to work to encourage greater active participation of the elderly;- involve the elderly by allowing them through the presence of European educators from countries other than the one in which they are resident to learn more about some aspects related to European culture;- to enlarge the number of workshops and activities proposed by each individual association by integrating them with training proposals that are inspired by what has been learned from the international comparison and that can promote the spread of greater European knowledge among senior people.The project will have significant impacts both on the individual participants and on the individual partners and at local and European level. The individual educators involved in the training event will have the possibility to acquire new knowledge and skills for the planning, implementation and management of activities for elder people. For the individual partners S.E.N.I.OR. will be not just a way to acquire new knowledge and skills, but it will represent the opportunity to enlarge their network of European contacts to develop new activities able to increase the participation of senior people in the society. The starting of a preliminary cognitive investigation about the training needs of the end users (the senior citizens), together with the examination of the knowledge and skills that an adult educator should have to the manage the activities addressed to elder people, will increase awareness of these needs. The increase of awareness will promote in the middle and long term time the quality of activities addressed to senior citizens.Finally the project both at local and European level wants to increase the experiences that can break the isolation and marginalization of the elderly, through the promotion of new training methods based on the active participation of the same elderl people."

<< Objectives >>ESSENCE will allow EU partners from heterogeneous geographical and social contexts to exchange good practices and developing transversal green skills, citizenship and active participation in the life of local communities in different targets of adult learners with fewer opportunities, namely:- elderly people from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds;- women victims of violence;- migrants/refugees.We also aim to train educators on practical non formal methods to teach those key skills.<< Implementation >>ESSENCE foresees 3 activities of exchanging good practices and sharing educational activities for women victims of violence (A2), migrants (A3) and elderly people (A4) for the development of transversal green skills, citizenship and active participation, with the creation of teaching materials and joint training events for educators. A final learning and training activity is planned to evaluate the key competences acquired, with the participation of an adult learner per target and two educators.<< Results >>The main tangible result is the ESSENCE Handbook, structured in 3 sections, each dedicated to one of the target of adult learners with fewer opportunities to which the project is addressing. Each section will contain 3 modules corresponding to the 3 key competences developed, accompanied by evaluation grids and non-formal activities useful for achieving the objectives. Important learning outcomes will be achieved on educators, disadvantaged adults, partner associations and local communities.

The “S.W.I.T.C.H. – Lifestyles” project was proposed by Furness Academy in partnership with two schools from Italy and Portugal and two expert partners, one tech partner (PONTO PR, from Portugal) and one QA partner (ProMETEUS from Italy). We moved from the data of the National Child Measurement Programme and NHS released in January 2018 which showed that 33% of 10-11 students are obese or overweight: the highest proportion of the country, with Barrow leading the chart. The study identified a strong relationship between poverty and obesity: prevalence for children living in the most deprived areas was more than double that of those living in the least deprived areas. There's obviously healthy eating and exercise to consider, but also poverty, affordability, emotional health and wellbeing: there were many issues in the area that can all have an impact on the weight of children. Partners have identified Students wellbeing and health as Priority 1: benefits of good health in terms of a child's life, from mental wellbeing to physical activity, had an overall impact on students' longer-term life chances. SWITCH pursued the following general objectives: - Support vulnerable students in personal development, promoting resilience and self-esteem through active living and healthy nutrition - improve the education on healthier food choices and physical activities at school, integrating the nutrition education aspects as part of the school curriculum - foster inclusion and healthy habits thanks to ICT and innovative practices and the following specific objectives: - empower educators and develop a tailored training course for P.E., Science/Nutrition teachers available on elearning modules - foster students leadership through the creation of SWITCH Peer Leaders in partner schools 3 Intellectual Outputs were developed: IO1 – SWITCH Curriculum on 3 topics: Physical Education, Nutrition and Mental wellbeing. All the school teachers involved in the proposal researched on those topics, thus increasing their knowledge and exchanging good practices with their international colleagues. 6 Learning Units per branch were developed and equipped with assessment grids, video tutorials, practical exercises, support material. The SWITCH Curriculum included research-based content about the effective methods of changing health behaviours and used web-based methods of knowledge transfer in support of health and physical education programs of study. IO2 – SWITCH App, with gamification components, for improving awareness, knowledge and skills of students on the need of acquiring a healthy lifestyle. The use of the SWITCH App was widespread by the Peer Leaders: these are students with particular leadership skills who were trained during the blended mobility in Portugal to support their classmates in using the App. Training Student Leader developed a targeted leadership programme for our vulnerable students on nutrition and mental wellness was identified as an effective strategy to reach pupils' engagement. ICT, gamification and peer education were the right tools to raise students' interest and motivation. IO3 – SWITCH e-learning platform and training for secondary school teachers, open to non directly involved teachers and teachers coming from other non-partner schools and countries. The platform was interactive and task-based. 6 transnational project meetings were planned and they took place in UK, Portugal and Italy. They had implementation and coordination purposes, quality assurance, and follow up of activities developed and plan for next steps. 3 LTTAs were organized: one joint staff training event in the UK and 2 blended mobilities for the Peer Leaders, one in Italy and one in Portugal. Students aged 13/14 with low socio-economic status, P.E. and Science teachers, as well as staff in charge of personal development, were our main targets. Families and the whole teaching staff as secondary targets, too, applied a whole family and whole-school approach. The project involved 300 students who benefited from the local activities. Among them, 24 participated in the physical part of the blended mobilities. 20 professionals in the field of education participating in the Curriculum methodology and definition and 15 have put into practice the SWITCH training content. 180 students participated in the SWITCH App game while 30 teachers non directly involved in the activities attended our training course on the e-learning platform. Both teachers and organizations acquired several competencies. Apart from the IOs and the tangible outputs, learning outcomes were reached on directly involved teachers, directly involved students who belonged to Year 8 and 9, directly involved students who played the role of Peer Leaders and participants in C2 and C3, partner organizations as a whole, both schools and expert partners, stakeholders and associated partners.
