"<< Background >>The MORE project (""Multifunctional role of women as a key driver for rural development"") aims to improve the access to, and the quality of, training opportunities and qualitifications of rural EU women. The realities of women's lives in rural areas have become more diverse in recent decades. In today's society, women assume a ""multifunctional role"" in the multi-faced context of their families (i.e. child and elderly care) and social and labour ties. This multiplicity of roles contributes significantly to improvement of their families' quality of life, as well as rural socio-economic development, civic engagement, and ways of rethinking the territorial contexts. According to the EU Parliament, the multifunctional role of women is essential to save rural areas in Europe, whose population is expected to shrink to almost 8M by 2050, in contrast with a fast-growing urban population that will reach 24M by 2050. Rural women still face serious disadvantages, compared not only to rural men, but also to urban women. Due to the structural drawbacks of local labour markets, women have to out-migrate from rural areas at a higher rate than men. Yet, for older generations, the domestic caregiver role is a significant barrier to mobility. Rural women are more dissatisfied with educational and employment opportunities in their regions. Moreover, they contribute significantly to the farming sector in terms of working time in agriculture. However, only 30% of farm holdings in the EU are officially owned by women. Most of times, official documents, rights, and representation within farm associations or local groups are at the name of their male counterparts. Although rural women's multifunctional role has been stressed by EU decision-makers, it is actually not endorsed by the policy and socio-economic sectors of national and local realities. The MORE partners have faced these challenges in first place, within the regional rural contexts in which they operate. Hence, they have decided to promote a project proposal to contribute to filling these gaps.MORE thus responds to the need for increasing rural women’s skills and capacities and making them direct actors of the social, policy and economic processes at local level. Limited research and education action have been so far undertaken on multifunctionality: MORE will overcome these limitations by conducting in-depth research analysis, developing 10 e-learning training courses and promoting the first digital community of rural women, directly supported by the feedback of target groups.<< Objectives >>Considering the challenges outlined above and the current EU rural context, MORE aims to improve and promote the multifunctional role of rural women by enhancing their wide range of skills and encouraging and motivating their participation into local ecosystems. In MORE, rural women are conceived as key drivers for their territories’ development and regeneration. The project will aim to stimulate and promote inclusive participation of rural women, including female migrants, in the project activities, along with trainers and local actors, by creating specific communities of interest, knowledge and alliances. Project core products will be co-designed with stakeholders to ensure the results are in line with their needs and interests and can be sustained in a longer term. The project will establish local “Rural Women Hubs” (RWHs) in 7 rural territories of 5 EU project countries - Spain, Romania, Poland, Italy, and Greece. The EU perspective will be ensured by a dedicated partner with long-standing expertise in EU values' advocacy and high-level connections across the EU and within EU institutions.MORE education action will strive to improve a number of capacities strictly related to multifunctionality, which have emerged from literature review, partners' direct experience and talks with local stakeholders performed at the proposal preparation stage. In a fast-changing world, key needed skills for rural women empowerment shall include digital literacy, entrepreneurial mindset to be social entrepreneurs or self-employees, multilingual competences, adaptation to climate change and ways to promote rural sustainability, work-life balance, flexibility to adapt to radical changes such as the ones imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic on our societies and economies. MORE will improve the access to these qualifications by developing high-quality educational content, easily replicable in other EU countries.MORE expects to promote new know-how and educational & digital products for EU, national and local stakeholders, to provide women with proper skills, and to advocate for better services, education and infrastructure to ensure a balanced life in rural territories and prevent further migration towards cities.<< Implementation >>The project foresees 3 main ""Project Results"", plus complementary activities including local activities with RHWs, dissemination, sustainability and project management.The core project products include:1) Development of the first training programme for multifunctional rural women. MORE will tackles different fields of multifunctionality through 10 e-courses on core skills related to multifunctionality, which emerged from partners' research and interviews with local stakeholders: professional, digital, social and personal skills. The training content and tools will be designed with the input of direct target group and local stakeholders. The courses will be then tested in a pilot and further fine-tuned based on the feedback received. At least 220 rural women, including female migrants, and 20 educators/trainers will be engaged in the pilot.2) Conduct of extensive research on multifunctional role of rural women: concept, trends & patterns, policy-framework, best practices, etc. The research study will conclude with specific guidelines and recommendations for the public and private sectors of rural territories, as well as for national and EU policy-makers. 3) Structure, launch and growth of the first EU digital community dedicated to multifunctional rural women, through the establishment of an innovative community platform for knowledge sharing, discussions, storytelling and free access to the MORE results.To complement these core technical activities, partners will promote local events such as conferences, talks, dialogue meetings, etc within their own hubs. Hubs will be conceived as a sort of living labs for knowledge sharing. Key attention will be paid to dissemination & valorisation activities, respectively to raise awareness of the project and ensure transferability and sustainability of results. A physical multiplier event in each participating country will be organised, and complemented with digital promotion actions to reach a wider impact. Finally, project management issues will also have a dedicated space to ensure smooth and efficient implementation of activities within the budget and time requirements. Three transnational project meetings have been foreseen to ensure cooperation and knowledge transfer. These have been scheduled in a way to benefit from other parallel project actions e.g. in conjunction with a multiplier event to allow all partners' attendance.<< Results >>Key expected impacts will be on project direct target group (rural women), in terms of reinforcement of capacities to explore innovative forms of social, personal and labour value creation and new opportunities of growth and competitiveness. They will be the first ones to benefit from the training and explore personal and professional growth, and business opportunities, to reinforce their multifunctional role. The project will engage rural women together with other key local actors, in the RWHs, to share experiences, deepen skills, create new partnerships and alliances and raise awareness of the multifunctionality and gender balance promotion at local level. This is aimed to contribute to the development of the sense of community and create a better environment and open new collaborations in the rural areas.Concrete results are, among others:- 7 local hubs established, whose overall activities will reach 490 people;- 1 Digital Community Platform;- 10 e-learning courses on multifunctionality, co-created with stakeholders in dedicated meetings within the hubs and tested/evaluated by at least 250 individuals;- 1 comprehensive research study, whose results will be published in relevant publications;- 6 multiplier events;- 3 transnational project meetings;- 1 call for replication launched to seek commitment from further adult education organisations to adopt the training course;- concrete policy recommendation, also summarised in a official White Paper, to advocate for policy and financial support for rural female multifuctionality in the EU;- partners sustaining project products within their institutions in the long term, along with associated partners;- a wide pool of policy-makers contacted and informed about the project outcomes."

<< Background >>For some years in the labour of market a new strategic figure for companies is taking hold:the Data Scientist.A data scientist is a professional responsible for collecting, analyzing and interpreting extremely large amounts of data. The data scientist role is an offshoot of several traditional technical roles, including mathematician, scientist, statistician and computer professional.The Data Scientist (DS) is characterized in particular by the presence of both scientific (knowledge of computer technologies, mathematics and statistics, competence in data processing) and human (curiosity, communication, propensity to experiment, creativity, systematicity, the ability to adapt, the ability to learn quickly, flexibility).Although data science is one of the hottest and growing sectors of the economy, it is observed that this sector is strongly segregated from the point of view of gender, in the sense that it is characterized by a prevalence of male employees.Data science Sector has a dangerous gender gap.The project aims to intervene on this issue.<< Objectives >>Skills in data science are strategic in humasistic faculties such as psychology, sociology, Philosophy & Ethics but yet most of these faculties don't include it in their curricula. Severals researchs show as important are data science skill in these humanities faculties.Although data scientists do rely on math, programming, and more technical skill sets, a data science career isn’t all about numbers. Often, data is gathered from human behavior. As a result, coming into the data science field with little-to-no prior STEM education can give you a more holistic view of how data can evolve and expand into the future.In coherence with that the project aims to:* Develop and encourage training in STEM disciplines among women (General Objective)SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES*Increase data science skills among female students;* Introduce curricula in data science in European Universities in social and female-majority fields of study (such as sociology, psychology, languages, etc.)*promote a career in data science among women.<< Implementation >>The project consists in the creation of the Following 4 Results:- OER Platform in Data Science for Women;- a New Innovative Framework in data science for humanities faculty; - Creation of Innovative Contents in Data science (example:1. Data Science Literacy:; 2. Data Visualisation and Visual Analytics Module; 3. Introduction to Data science for Human & Social Sciences; 4. Data Science for good; 5. Data Journalism and Storytelling; - Creation of Guide on the Data Science career for Women.In addition The project includes the following activities:- Working Group with students;- Multiplier Events;- Dissemination activitites at european, national and local level.<< Results >>The project promotes the following outcomes:-Students will develop relevant programming abilities.-Students will demonstrate proficiency with statistical analysis of data.-Students will develop the ability to build and assess data-based models.-Students will execute statistical analyses with professional statistical software.-Students will demonstrate skill in data management.-Students will apply data science concepts and methods to solve problems in real-world contexts and will communicate these solutions effectivelyIn addition the project promotes:- awareness of the importance of data science in the human sciences and the relationship between data and the human element;- the orientation of female students towards STEM disciplines and motivate them to take courageous and alternative paths both in studies and in work;- encourage the increase of statistical-mathematical skills for social studies.
