Development of a Training Program for improving Inclusion and Participation of Persons with Disability through Timebanking

Description

The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (PwD) (UNCRPD, 2006) promotes full and effective participation and inclusion in society (Art.19) recognizing the right of PwD to live in the community, with choices equal to others, and to full enjoy their full inclusion and participation in the community. It also promotes awareness of the capabilities and contributions of PwD (Art. 8).NOT-FOR-PROFIT SHARING ECONOMY (NFPSE), also known as “real or pure” SHARING ECONOMY, is based in reciprocal exchange systems with no monetary exchange involved (via time credits, community currency, shared services, etc…). One of the most established form of NFPSE is TIME BANKS (TB). Give one hour of service to another, and receive one time credit, when a network of members agrees in receiving credits for services that other members provide (www.timebanks.org/what-is-timebanking). TBs are relevant to policy-making in the area of PwD (Potential of TBs to support social inclusion. EU Comission): •Focusing in the capacities rather than disabilities of PwD, so, promoting the awareness of its capabilities and contributions •Increasing inclusion and participation in the community of PwD, through providing them with new social networks or improving the existing ones and encouraging them to understand the important roles they can play in those networks•Providing volunteer support CAPABILITY-TBis launched with the main objective of increasing the competences (attitudes, knowledge, skills) of PwD and their Supportsfor improving their Inclusion and Participation through Timebanking. Specific objectives:•Aware/motivate this collective on the use of TB•Promote the self-knowledge and discovery of capacities of PwD and its deployment•Increase participation of PwD in social networks structured around the TBs•Promote mutual support by promoting the exchange between people with different capacities•Promote the easy and cost-effective access of PwD to goods and services •Involving Supports in effective cooperation with PwD and even participating in TB•Develop general and specific digital skills related to TB Online PlatformsThrough the execution of this Project the next results will be obtained;•A “Co-Created MethodologicalGuide” (I.O.1) will be developed with the direct participation of Persons with Disabilities (PwD) and other End Users, with the main objective of discussing and agreeing with them on the definitive contents, approach of training methodologies and tools to be integrated in the Training Program.•A set of “Timebanking Training Activities” (I.O.2) will be designed, including Face-to-Face and Online Training Activities, for enhancing the experiential training of Persons with Disabilities (PwD) and their Supports (professionals, relatives, community members, etc…), in a way that the trainees will developed the targeted competences through the creation of a real Timebank and/or participation in other existing Timebanks. A Guidelines will be developed for supporting Trainers in the implementation of the “Timebanking Training Activities” as part of this output•A set of “Training Materials” (I.O.3) adapted to Persons with Disabilities (PwD) and their Supports onhow to increase inclusion and participation through Timebanking (TB) will be developed to be used along the implementation of the “Timebanking Training Activities” (I.O.2).•A“CAPABILITY-TB e-Training Tool” (I.O.4) will be developed for supporting the implementation of the Timebanking Training Activities” (I.O.2), including the option of creating an online Timebank where trainees will train themselves in the competences needed to participate and enhance their social inclusion•Implementation of 6 Multiplier Eventson how to increase inclusion and participation of PwD through Timebanking (TB) addressed to stakeholders that could multiply the impact of the project•Development of Dissemination Actions addressed to the European collective related to DisabilityVALIDATION PILOT ACTIONS will be implemented involving 100 Persons with Disabilities (PwD) and their Supports for validation of the project results (40 in Spain and 20 in Italy, Portugal and Greece) The Consortium includes 5 entities working in the field of supporting PwD (AMICA, COPAVA, CECD SINTRA, EDRA, CSS FORLI), 1 Research Institute specialized in Sharing Economy, including Timebanking, both in the area of research and application to specific collectives (FORBA) and 1 Non-for-Profit entity specialized in development of e-Training Platforms, ICT Literacyand Social Innovation with specific experience in promoting the use of Timebanks (IED).
