The core business of the project is the training of moderators to enable them to apply group dynamics and transmit vital, practical and scientifically-based knowledge to adult learners. During the first and second years, new moderators were trained and two international exchanges of adult-learners took place, with intensive brainstorming in workshops. The first release of a Vade Mecum has been prepared through collaboration between the four partner countries. The project has been renewed for one year in order to allow the integration of an East-European partner in the project, STOWARZYSMENIE EDUKACJI I KULTURY from Poland. This last year must permit the partnership to finalise the guidelines for the training of moderators and a bibliography on the subject. It will also integrate the study of intergenerational help, considering the needs and help of grandparents. The project wants to reinforce one of the oldest roots of Europe: the family. If a person can find harmony, peace and happiness at home, it also improves other areas, such as professional and social life. As the course is addressed to all parents (of any race, language, country, social level or ideology) it helps to overcome discriminations and stimulates networking between them.

The main objective of the project is to develop a range of effective tools for establishing and analysing the needs of adult learners in education both pre- and post-entry. It is envisaged that more holistic programmes of education can be designed by taking into account the needs identified and through active participation of learners in all stages of the process. If these needs can be made explicit, adult learners can be supported more effectively in learning. The needs of all stakeholders will be considered (e.g. local community, institution, tutors, etc.) but the focus will be on those of adult learners. The development of tools will be supported by a continuing process of evaluation and review which will involve active participation of learners at every stage. To this end, the partners also share information on the structure and the main providers of adult education in the countries concerned and disseminate examples of good practice with regard to needs detection at the local, national and European level. The results of the first year of the partnership (August 2002-August 2003) can be summarised as follows: Regarding the implementation of the NAILS-project • All partners agreed on the content of the NAILS-project by accepting the synopsis document • Names of experts and institutions were collected. • agreement on some outlooks of the project, such as the logistics, preparation of the meetings, internal and external communication, website. Regarding adult education and EU-policy in general • The partners are informed about the EU-policy on Lifelong Learning (the Memorandum and the Communication) and they see the connection between EU-policy and the NAILS-project. • All partners gained knowledge and better insight into the structure of and legislation on adult education in the partner countries involved in the project.

The main target groups are ethnic and other minority groups of every kind, disadvantaged people and disabled persons. By better integrating these target groups in our organisations, we want to lower barriers in order to reach better acceptance and understanding in both directions, create possibilities for active citizenship and change the pedagogical attitudes of the teachers. We are convinced that personal expression will be key to reaching our goals. At a later stage, our experiences will be very helpful in working out anti-prejudice training programmes for teachers that are not currently provided in pedagogical and didactical high school education. Through the project we can also create opportunities for our learners to become teachers themselves, apply for learning other subjects or integrate in the community in general and in organisations that promote possibilities for the target groups.

We shall together make new recognition and pedagogical products for our work with disabled adults. We shall allow new thoughts and exchange experiences, and remove the acts and thoughts that exist out of habit in our culture, just as we shall create proper opportunities to use the new pedagogical methods in each country. The partners will meet at executive level in seminars/workshops where “new approaches” will be the focus, and through which we obtain “the important knowledge” that aims at individual service to disabled persons and towards lifelong learning for all involved. The preliminary process shall “tie up all proportions of the project” which can form a shared database of knowledge in the virtual and existing space. Subsequently we will establish trans-national groups, which will work with different subjects and make a coherent view of life with the focus on work situations, quality of life, understanding for disabilities and a social network.

The target group is adults with limited skills who may be at risk of exclusion from the labour market. The project will try to find answers to questions like: How can schools reach adults in employment? How can schools establish cooperation with the business community? How can schools help businesses identify and develop their human resources? What are the best methods suited to this kind of teaching/learning? The partners in the project represent a variety of institutions with very different experiences in this field. The first project year has an overall organisational perspective in which we plan to exchange present practices and experiences in working with companies and based on those develop new practices that will be tested on a number of pilot companies. The second year has a learning perspective and the focus will be on the teacher/learner relationship and will experiment with various forms of flexible learning. This approach gives new meaning to the ideas of lifelong learning.

This theory implies that individual learning strategies, based on learners’ individual strengths, will enhance learning opportunities for students whose education has been inadequate. In the process of exploration, partners will meet at seminars to share expertise, knowledge and experience. Experimental pilot projects are to be based on the theory studied, using new approaches to teaching and learning. Learner involvement in the planning, implementation and evaluation of these pilot projects is important. One pilot project, a student newsletter with IT communication between rural, mono-cultural and urban, multicultural learner groups will combat rural isolation, xenophobia and racism. A homepage and a conference for professionals in the field of adult education will ensure documentation and dissemination of the knowledge and experience acquired by the partnership project.

We find that this social inequality may act as an obstacle to the mentally ill and we would like to focus on their absorption into the extensive labour market. We find that education can contribute to motivate and bring the mentally ill into the labour market. An individual analysis of the resources of each person gives the possibility for planning an individual education programme, which is based upon each person’s strengths. We wish to co-operate with the social network around each person to develop their individual qualifications and to make sure that the systems’ collective knowledge will become best utilised by the participants of the project. We therefore have a vision of creating a sort of jobcentre that would demonstrate the value of the working capacity of every mentally ill person in the project. The second goal for this jobcentre is to ensure that companies are living up to their social responsibility so jobs can be created on the extensive labour market. The expertise of the partner countries will be collected and a proposal for a strategy will be developed and probably continued in an application for Social Funds.

This will be achieved by visiting each of the members' centres in order to compare methods, thereby applying the most appropriate methods to our own work. The long-term outcome of this co-operation will be the mobility of young adults with "less opportunities".

The tuition of the institute will focus on aesthetic subjects: theatre, dance, music, but with a multi-aesthetic interdisciplinary approach so that these disciplines can interact and enrich each other. Through focus on artistic professionalism the project wants to enhance the learning process with personal development, the meeting of cultures and vocational/personal qualifications such as the willingness to adapt, commitment, attentiveness, mobility, tolerance, interpersonal skills, responsibility, creativity and entrepreneurial skills and problem-solving ability and other competencies. Through interaction between theory and practice, interaction with the research environment and an international network, the project will create a knowledge centre for aesthetic interdisciplinary learning processes.

We want to create tools and opportunities to reflect the informal learning which takes place continuously when people encounter different cultures. In order to avoid significant polarisation, it is important to identify common standards and values. This is why we want to develop methods to reveal all the hidden agendas present in our democratic society. This will help those EU citizens who have a different cultural background to understand the prevailing social order, make their mark on it and thus become active and contented citizens. We then want to test our method and materials in practice by working with ethnic minorities in our respective countries.

The partnership will focus on techniques and methods for the inclusion of adults with special needs and from disadvantaged groups. Through exchange of practices, the partners will discover the gaps between competencies and new life challenges among adult learners from rural areas and disadvantaged groups, and the need for the renewal of participatory methods. The partnership will compare and create a beneficial link between strategies and actual practices, which will be adjusted and planned in our non-formal schools, organizations and schools under development, and try to find ways of preparing people for a world with fast-growing progress in communication technology, unemployment and personal burnout which marginalise more and more people from rural areas and disadvantaged groups from society. The project ‘Empower life’ is an example of a first step in building and exchanging strategies to attract and keep adult learners in non-formal education in order, in the long term, to prepare them to also take part in formal education.

The participants in the partnership project will experience teaching practice in the different partnership countries with their different traditions, theories and culture and thus be given ideas and the possibility of developing new types of supplementary education. Teachers in adult education from the partnership countries will develop methods of reflecting on their own practice and relate them to theories and practice presented in other countries and in this way hopefully become even better teachers (reflective learning). Being part of the learning process, participants in courses will have the possibility of reflecting on their own learning.

These groups vary between regions, but they have certain traits in common: 1) difficulties in obtaining steady jobs, 2) disinclined to participate in education voluntarily and 3) not affected by traditional methods of marketing education. The learning partnership is a trans-national cooperation between different teaching institutions with a common wish to try and use untraditional ways of reaching these groups. Each institution has targeted a group that it will attempt to engage in educational activities. The framework for the cooperation is: 1) an internet conference with a common homepage. The coordinator is responsible for construction and technical maintenance of the site. Partners regularly exchange experiences on information material, marketing strategies etc. 2) an annual conference (preceded by a preparatory meeting for key staff) in alternating countries to exchange experiences directly and strengthen the European dimension.

Es fördert das gegenseitige Verständnis individueller Erfahrungen, Probleme und Motivationen. Besonders produktiv kann die biographische Methode in gemeinsamen Lernprozessen von Teilnehmenden mit unterschiedlichen persönlichen Erfahrungen, Altersstufen und beruflichen Zusammenhängen sein, vor allem dann, wenn die Teilnehmenden unterschiedlichen Generationen und unterschiedlichen Nationalitäten angehören. Ziel des beabsichtigten Projektes ist es, diesen Bildungsansatz in gemeinsamer Arbeit von Bildungseinrichtungen verschiedener europäischer Länder weiter zu entwickeln und damit neue Zugänge, Lehrpläne und Methoden für das lebenslange Lernen zwischen Generationen, in internationalen Lerngruppen und Lernprojekten zu erarbeiten. Dabei stehen der Austausch individueller Perspektiven, die Wissensvermittlung über aktuelle soziale Veränderungen und europäische Entwicklungen im Vordergrund. Mit dem Projekt soll zugleich ein konkreter Beitrag zur Integration der mittel- und osteuropäischen Beitrittsländer/Beitrittskandidaten geleistet werden. Das Projekt sieht vor: - Internationale generationenübergreifende Lernseminare zu projektieren, durchzuführen und zu evaluieren - Experten/Lehrer für europäische Ausbildungsprojekte auszubilden; - die Erfahrungen in Seminaren auszutauschen - die weitere Anwendung in den Bildungszusammenhängen der Partner vorzubereiten.

Dafür soll auf europäischer Ebene: - nach Beispielen "guter Praxis" für die Umsetzung von Gender Mainstreaming mit Hilfe von Angeboten, Maßnahmen und Strukturen der Erwachsenenbildung und Qualifizierung gesucht werden. - mit Hilfe eines Leistungsvergleichs (vereinfachtes Benchmarkingverfahren) sollen Strategien deutlich gemacht werden, wie Mitarbeitende, Dozenten / Dozentinnen und Lernende sowie Betriebe und andere Organisationen für das Thema Chancengleichheit sensibilisiert und zur Umsetzung motiviert werden können. - es sollen Qualitätskriterien für eine konkrete Umsetzung identifiziert werden. Dabei gehen wir von der Hypothese aus, dass die Implementierung des Gender Mainstreaming einen Beitrag leistet zur - Qualitätsverbesserung von Lernen und Lehren in den o.g. Angeboten und Strukturen der Qualifizierung und Erwachsenenbildung - Erhöhung gleicher Zugangschancen hinsichtlich Bildung und Beschäftigung für (benachteiligte) Frauen und Männer Die Lernpartnerschaft möchte eine reflektierte Basis für weiterführende Kooperationsprojekte schaffen, in denen zur Implementierung des Gender Mainstreaming durch innovative und weiter entwickelte Qualifizierungsbausteine und Maßnahmen beigetragen wird.

The general aim of this procedure is to overcome barriers between the different groups, enhance mutual understanding and lessen potential conflicts. All institutions involved in this learning-partnership use a similar and compatible approach in their individual local or regional projects. During the transnational meetings experiences and models will be compared and exchanged.

The existence and study of collections is only a tool, their conservation only a condition; therefore education is the most crucial and fundamental task of the museum. As David Anderson mentioned: “museum-education is not any more an ‘add-on’; it becomes an increasing core function integral to all museums activities. Otherwise the fulfilment of the museum’s mission cannot be achieved which could raise the crucial question "why museums in general should be obtained?” Learning in the museum promotes, enhances and facilitates learning-results for every target-group and every purpose. Therefore specific training-conditions are necessary. Herewith we prepare a European training which opens-up 3 possibilities: 1) to be trained in intercultural competence and new innovative trends for learning-projects in the museum 2) to have a lively exchange with experts from other European countries and come into contact with programmes and colleagues 3) to receive a certification from every institution Total Duration: 2 years Area(s) covered Project Objectives Target Group(s) Funding year: 1 Basic skills Intercultural issues Sustainable development Arts, music, culture Strategy for stimulating / promoting adult learner Guidance / counselling or other support services Experimentation with new pedagogical approach(es) Methods for providing credit for knowl. or comp.

Diese gemeinsame Sprache ist zweifelsohne die Musik, das ureigenste Kommunikationsmittel. In der heutigen Zeit ist Musik überall präsent, aber im Bildungsverständnis hat Musik in den europäischen Ländern einen unterschiedlichen Stellenwert. Die Lernpartnerschaft stellt die Bedeutung der Musikerziehung im frühkindlichen Bereich für behinderte und nichtbehinderte Kinder sowie die Bedeutung der Musik für den älter werdenden Menschen in den Mittelpunkt. Mit dem Vergleich kultureller Unterschiede in der Musikerziehung und in den Angeboten für das Lebensbegleitende Lernen soll aus der Lernpartnerschaft eine Lernende Partnerschaft (Eltern - Großeltern, Erzieher/innen, Lehrer/innen, Ärzte, Wissenschaftler) für Kinder werden, die den Aufbau eines europäischen Netzwerkes "Musizierende (cantare et sonare) Kindergärten und Schulen mit Eltern und Großeltern" initiieren möchte. Dadurch wird die Fähigkeit durch Stimme und Sprache mit anderen zu kommunizieren gefördert, der Dialog der Generationen unterstützt und der Einsatz von Musiktherapie bei Sprachbehinderung besonders beachtet.

Dieser erweiterte Bildungsbegriff umfasst neben dem kontextbezogenen Spracherwerb eine politische und gesellschaftliche Bildung, einen interreligiösen Austausch und eine allgemeine Kompetenzverbesserung für Migranten. Dieses Bildungskonzept hat den Anspruch, Migranten das Rüstzeug zu vermitteln, damit sie zu aktiven und gleichberechtigten Staatsbürgern in unseren multikulturellen Gesellschaften werden. Ausgehend vom Vergleich der vorhandenen Bildungsangebote für Migranten in den jeweiligen Ländern werden neue Ansätze der Weiterbildung in einer multikulturellen Gesellschaft erarbeitet. In die Lernpartnerschaften werden Akteure aus Migrantenorganisationen, Vertreter von Ausländerbeiräten, Ausländerbeauftragte von Gewerkschaften und Kirchen einbezogen. Die Ergebnisse der Lernpartnerschaften werden in einer Broschüre zusammengefasst, die dann Bildungseinrichtungen, Vereinen, Nichtregierungsorganisationen, Kirchen und Gewerkschaften, die aktiv mit Migranten arbeiten, zur Verfügung gestellt werden. Darüber hinaus werden sie in die Politik hineingetragen, um die Verantwortlichen für die Problematik zu sensibilisieren und eine Erhöhung der finanziellen Mittel zur Förderung der Integration von Migranten zu bewirken.

Als "Bildungsversager" und "Aussteiger" sind oft auch frustrierte junge Menschen von einer "Lern- und Bildungsabstinenz" betroffen. Diese Menschen nehmen keine Bildungsangebote mehr in Anspruch und stellen sich auch sonst keinen Lernerfahrungen. Zur Entwicklung sinnstiftender Lebensperspektiven sind sie nicht in der Lage, ihr geistiges Potential verkümmert. Wesentliches Anliegen der Lernpartnerschaft ist es, diese resignierten Menschen zu motivieren, sich wieder Lererfahrungen zu stellen und auch Freude an neuen Erfahrungen zu erleben. Als Mittel zum Erreichen dieses Ziels, sollen praktizierte sozialarbeiterische Ansätze optimiert und weiterentwickelt werden. Fachkräfte des sozialen Sektors aus Deutschland, Tschechien und England - tauschen sich dazu über die jeweilige Praxis und eigene Erfahrungen aus, - gehen der Frage nach, wie es gelingen kann, diese Menschen besser zu erreichen, - untersuchen, welche Aspekte zu ihrer Motivation von Bedeutung sind, - und leiten daraus Handlungsschritte für die sozialarbeiterische Arbeit ab. Zielgruppen sind Menschen, bei denen keine inneren Antriebe mehr erkennbar sind, ihr Leben aktiv selber zu gestalten und die nicht (mehr) offen sind für neue Lernerfahrungen.

In ihrer Entstehung, Geschichte und Nutzung wirken universale, grenz- und kulturüberschreitende Impulse und Gemeinsamkeiten. Zudem werden sie nach wie vor gemäß ihrer ursprünglichen Zweckbestimmung genutzt. Damit erweisen sie sich als hervorragende Lernorte europäischer Kultur, die für ein intergenerationelles und lebenslanges Lernen und für einen interkulturellen und interreligiösen Austausch genutzt werden können. Der wachsende Städtetourismus, die wachsende Bedeutung von Kultur und Freizeit für die städtische Bevölkerung stellen die Zentralkirchen europäischer Großstädte vor neue pädagogische und organisatorische Herausforderungen. Sie müssen sich Besucherströmen und kommerziellen Kontexten öffnen, ohne ihren eigentümlichen Charakter als Orte religiöser Präsenz zu verlieren. Zugleich eröffnen sich neue Chancen als Lernorte kultureller, historischer, politischer und religiöser Identität. Die Lernpartnerschaft möchte hierüber einen Erfahrungsaustausch herstellen: Auf Basis direkter Kooperation verschiedener Institutionen sollen Erfahrungswerte verglichen und ausgewertet werden. Geplant ist die Entwicklung didaktischer Materialien und der Aufbau nachhaltiger fachlicher Kooperationsstrukturen, welche in naher Zukunft evtl. gemeinsame pädagogische Standards oder die Entwicklung von Austauschmodellen und Partnerschaften im europäischen Kontext ermöglichen sollen.

Therefore we intend to explore the relationship between an individual's motivation, work and citizenship. We will do this by investigating theoretical and practical approaches and processes of lifelong learning by: 1. Inviting partners to carry out a local programme, to test and evaluate a common and agreed methodology with different target groups. Evaluating the experiences of both: trainers and learners. 2. Each partner producing an evaluative study. 3. Managing a two year project involving exchange of findings through transnational seminars, conferences and best practice workshops. 4. Forming our conclusions and disseminating the results through national institutions, European meetings, workshops and a final conference and posted on a common website. The target groups to be involved and consulted will be people living in disadvantaged areas, young adults at risk of social marginalization and finally young specialists, adapting to social and cultural environments.

Building an international e-learning network of adult learning institutions in the Baltic Sea area – through consolidating and intensifying previously initiated contacts between institutions in Denmark, Germany, Latvia, Sweden as well as through winning additional partners, esp. in Lithuania, Estonia, Finland and Poland. Beyond Grundtvig eligibility, contacts exist with institutions in Russia (St. Petersburg and Kaliningrad) which can be developed for the Hanseatic League of Learning. 2. Developing common educational projects for and with young adult learners. Project proposals exist bearing on various aspects of the integration and enlargement of Europe (one project involving learners is currently being piloted between Malmö, Riga, and Hamburg), additional ones are called for. The most relevant of these will be discussed by the Learning Partnership, procedures will be developed to work them out in detail and to translate them into learning formats. 3. Testing various tools of e-learning and formats of online communication for selected project ideas, involving young adult learners in the partner institutions, thereby preparing them for future activities within the Hanseatic League of Learning as well as enhancing the media competence of both trainers and learners for the demands of virtual international communication.

In order to achieve this, the atmosphere of the shop has to be of a genuine and natural attraction. The LP will analyse existing models like "sportello" from Italy, "Internet Cafè" etc. to see if elements of these models can be of use for the design of the knowledge shop. The learning process has to be moved from its current environment and restrictions to a situation where animated surroundings makes it a pleasure to talk about learning, comparable for example to talking with friends in a cafè or espresso bar. The image of the "learner" the project is based on is characterised by motivation, independence, partnership and self competence. This Leitbild, is, however, today not matched by adequate concepts of the providers of education and training. Both in school and in vocational education formalised ways of learning and curricular teaching make self controlled and joyful learning a thing difficult to be experienced. The concept strived for in this partnership wants to give new input to the pretension of the empowerment of learners. The knowledge shop is designed to be a meeting point for all who want to obtain (or offer!) knowledge.

In fact, the traditional, formal assessment practices have very little in common with the teaching/learning process in the context of non-formal education; on the other hand, it is imperative for both trainers and trainees to have accurate feedback which will allow them to analyse, reflect on and improve their practices. Therefore, the project aims at developing assessment by portfolio. The typical portfolio will include evidence of cognitive, meta-cognitive and attitude development components, encompassing different areas, according to the different subjects taught (in Portugal, for example, English as a Foreign Language; in Germany, ICT...). The written and oral products will be presented in several sways; they will show processes and products, illustrate several activities and identify different learning opportunities given. The process of revising, analysing, reflecting on and selecting the work to be included will be an important part of the project. It will be shared and developed via a Discussion Forum on the Net.

It will encourage and support learning institutions to become more accessible and enhance the capacity of the target groups (migrants, asylum seekers, refugees and ethnic minorities including Roma / Travellers) to engage positively with Lifelong Learning opportunities. The partners will carry out literature reviews on the needs of target groups for Lifelong Learning and on barriers to taking part in the services and courses of learning institutions. Focus group meetings and workshops will be facilitated locally with representatives of the target groups and the learning institutions to get feed-back on the findings of the reviews. The partners will also examine the potential role of "Cultural Mediators" to act as an interface between target groups and learning institutions and will discuss this issue at local workshops. During a transnational workshop a shared concept and model for "Cultural Mediators" within a wider conceptual framework will be developed. The parties involved will also assess the results of year 1 and decide on actions during year 2 of the project.

Im städtischen Raum sind Menschen mit kultureller Deprivation von Interesse, die von biografischen Hintergründen berichten wollen. Da diese Personen nur bedingt der Schrift mächtig sind, wollen sie schreiben und lesen lernen, um alle genannten Kenntnisse aufzuschreiben und der Nachwelt bzw. dem politischen Umfeld zu übermitteln. Sie bringen also ein hohes Maß an Motivation mit, sich "alfabetisieren" zu lassen. Eingeladen sind Einrichtungen, die sich um eine solche Alfabetisierung (plus weitere Grundbildung) bemühen bzw. dazu Anstöße geben und zur Aus- oder Fortbildung ermutigen und einschlägige Beratungsarbeit leisten. Von besonderem Interesse ist es, dass nicht nur Einrichtungen mitarbeiten, zu denen die Klienten automatisch kommen (wie z.B. zur Psychiatrischen Klinik), sondern auch Institutionen, die eine Struktur aufweisen, die auf die Menschen zugeht, bzw. eine offene Tür als Anlaufstelle hat, so dass die Zugangschwelle niedrig ist (wie bei Kirchen; Volkshochschulen, Bildungswerke für Arbeitslose). Mit höherer Schrift- und Bildungskompetenz der Nutzer und Beratungsteilnehmer steigt die Chance auf einen Arbeitsplatz d.h. das Bemühen um die eigene Kultur und Biografie vermindert potentiell die Arbeitslosigkeit.

Die einzelnen Schritte sind ständig aktuell im Internet nachvollziehbar. Ziel des Projekts ist es, Lehr- und Lernmethoden der Erwachsenenbildung in vier europäischen Ländern zu vergleichen. Die Vergleiche schließen alle Ebenen der am Bildungsprozess Beteiligten, die Veranstaltungsplanenden, die Lehrenden und die Lernenden ein. Diese fungieren dann als Multiplikatoren in ihren Einrichtungen sowie auf lokaler und regionaler Ebene. Durch die Aufbereitung und Einstellung ins Internet wird eine europaweite Verbreitung angestrebt. Um die Abläufe zu strukturieren, werden den verschiedenen Ebenen der Beteiligung schwerpunktmäßig Themen zugeordnet. So beschäftigen sich die Veranstaltungsplanenden mit bewährten traditionellen und innovativen Lehrmethoden und erstellen daraus Fortbildungsangebote für Planende. Ausgewählte Lehrende treffen sich ihrerseits zum Vergleich der Vermittlung von interkulturellen Kompetenzen und wählen geeignete best-practice-Modelle aus, die sie als Multiplikatoren an Kolleg/innen weitergeben. Schließlich informieren sich Lernende über Lernstrategien und vergleichen ihre Techniken mit denen der Partnereinrichtungen. Die Ergebnisse fließen in Angebote zur Lernberatung und ggf. workshops für Lernende bzw. künftige Selbstlerngruppen ein. Die Entwicklung des Projekts wird laufend evaluiert und dokumentiert. So steht am Ende nicht EIN Produkt, sondern ein Prozeß-Verlauf sowie kleinere "Handreichungen" für die Beteiligten am Bildungsprozess in ihrer jeweiligen Funktion.

The project places particular emphasis on innovative approaches to inter-cultural learning and on improving the educational opportunities for socially or economically underprivileged target groups which differ in each of the institutions involved. It brings together learners and teachers from different European countries. At the basis of the conceptual work of this renewed project is the feeling shared by the participating institutions that one of the central tasks of the European Union is to avoid or reduce exclusion. This concerns the internal integration efforts of the member countries (for example: their ways of dealing with ethnic minorities, the handicapped, the socially disadvantaged) as well as the different classes of relationship between the member countries of the EU. In 2003 the so-called “Summer Academy” which serves as a kind of European experimental laboratory and which will give a chance for an intensive exchange of information between the institutions involved, will take place in Agigea, Romania. Among other things, there will be creative workshops, lectures and field trips, and, at the end of the event, the results of the work will be presented in a performance to the local public and on the Summer Academy's own website.

Learning strategies in museums have to be adapted to the latest scientific evidence. One question to be adressed is how groups with no access to formal teaching programmes (i.e. seniors and disabled people) can be reached by the museum's educational activities. The educational programmes to be developed are to take account of the latest findings of brain research, pedagogics and psychology. An important question is how interactive exhibits and educational programmes can stimulate learning processes among the choosen target groups. The third year of the project is to implement the concepts of projects jointly developed in the 2nd year and to evaluate the impact on the target groups. The project will support our Greek partner whose museum will open a new building in 2004. Project meetings to work on specific projects and staff exchange between the partners will secure a transfer of experiences and knowledge. The collaboration is to contribute to the strengthening of European consciousness and in doing so assist in promoting intercultural understanding.

This is true not only within its social order but also regarding individual life plans and life decisions. Active citizenship and democracy require the appropriate participation of citizens in bioethical and biomedical processes. The project assumes that value debates on bio-medical queries are based on adequate information, however more scientific information on processes is insufficient either to commence debates on values or to find processes of communication and consensus in the long run. The transformation of information to knowledge is a central challenge of the knowledge society, especially if it is essential in terms of decision-making and choosing options. However, information can only be transformed to knowledge where the relevant information content has been successfully taken on board. Therefore elaborating and evaluating appropriate information and education concepts in the field of biomedical questions, are central to the project. Subject to existing national education concepts in bioethics, it is intended to compile a synopsis of concepts in educational bioethics. In so doing, one of the primary objectives of the learning partnership will be to find a point of departure for a European perspective on educational concepts in ethical problems in biomedical science.

Teilnehmen werden Menschen mit und ohne Behinderung. Auf den Treffen der Projektpartner wird modellhaft integrative Erwachsenenbildung durchgeführt, es werden bestehende und neue Methoden erprobt. In einer "Handmappe" werden diese Ergebnisse dokumentiert und allen in der Erwachsenenbildung Interessierten zugänglich gemacht. Leitgedanken: Alle Menschen mit und ohne Behinderung - ob mit geistiger, psychischer, Sinnes- und/oder körperliche Behinderung, ob leicht oder schwerstbehindert - sollen sich gemeinsam im Rahmen der allgemeinen Erwachsenenbildung bilden können. Bisher hat sich gezeigt, dass integrative Erwachsenenbildung für alle Beteiligten von großem Nutzen ist: - Sie ermöglicht ein gegenseitiges Verstehen und baut dadurch Vorurteile und Ängste ab. - Sie kann damit Ausgrenzung behinderter Menschen vermindern. - Sie führt die integrativen Ansätze im Kindergarten und Schulbereich weiter. - Sie ermöglicht Chancengleichheit und fördert berufliche (Wieder)-Eingliederung. - Ihre Ansätze schaffen auch für Menschen ohne Behinderung gute Lernvoraussetzungen. Themenschwerpunkte der Partnerschaft: - Leitgedanken / Philosophie integrativer bzw. inklusiver Bildung - Didaktik: Ziele, Themen, Methoden und Materialien - Entwicklung von Strategien zur individuellen Bildungsberatung - Qualifizierung von KursleiterInnen - Sensibilisierung der am Bildungsprozess mittelbar und unmittelbar Beteiligten Total Duration: 2 years Area(s) covered Project Objectives Target Group(s) Funding year: 1 Active citizenship Intercultural issues European countries / European Union Strategy for stimulating / promoting adult learner Guidance / counselling or other support services Experimentation with new pedagogical approach(es) Disabled persons COMPOSITION OF THE PARTNERSHIP Coordinating organisation Name of the organisation: Gesellschaft Erwachsenenbildung und Behinderung e.V.

To make this diversity work is a task of the future. The project gives basic contributions. The work is based on experiences achieved in companies which work with diversity issues to be able to benefit from the diversity represented in the work force. The project will analyse the way such issues may be adapted and transferred to learning processes in general and for multicultural communities in particular. Diversity awareness is a core qualification which can be learned during lectures and which can be defined as a personal competence (key skill). The objective of the partnership is to gain knowledge about concepts for diversity management. A central question of the partnership will be the relationship between equal opportunities, diversity management and integration. Experiences from processes of implementation will be of interest as a starting point for further work.

In diesem Projekt verständigen sich FortbildnerInnen in sechs Konsultationen über Qualitätsanforderungen an Bibliodrama-Prozesse und wünschenswerte Kompetenzen von Bibliodrama-Leitenden; sie erarbeiten eine Rahmenkonzeption für die Fortbildung von Bibliodrama-Leitenden, die versucht, sowohl den unterschiedlichen vorhandenen Profilen als auch der angestrebten Vergleichbarkeit im europäischen Bildungsraum gerecht zu werden. Gleichzeitig werden methodische Ansätze und Curricula von Bibliodrama-Workshops im Sinne von Erfahrungsaustausch und Qualifizierung vorgestellt , diskutiert und Konzeptionen für die Fortbildung von Leitenden und deren Implementierung in den einzelnen Einrichtungen erarbeitet und vorbereitende Veranstaltungen unter kollegialer Beratung durchgeführt. Laufende Langzeitfortbildungen werden in der Konsultationsgruppe ausgewertet. Eine „Charta“, die Grundlage für ein europäisches Bibliodrama-Netzwerk sein soll, liegt im Entwurf vor. Sie umfasst eine Qualitätsbeschreibung, ethische Grundsätze für Leitende, eine Rahmenkonzeption für Fortbildungen und Strukturen eines europäischen Kommunikationssystems, das die Qualität und die Vergleichbarkeit von Bibliodrama-Angeboten befördern soll. Diese Charta wird mit neu zu gewinnenden Partnern auf nationaler und europäischer Ebene diskutiert und am Ende des Projektes als Kern eines europäischen Netzwerkes präsentiert. Gleichzeitig wird ein europäisches Steuerungsgremium installiert.

It will offer the opportunity to have a qualification in this field for all interested and will help to establish "lifelong learning" as a main function for the future. It will turn people suffering from social exclusion into socially accepted ones. The scheme will also help to prevent social exclusion and so curb political damage created by extremists in European society. The participation of providers, teachers and learners is necessary to check the results as well as qualify the members of the whole process in each organisation and to get substantial methods and didactics to access disadvantaged people in education.

This means that adult education institutions have to play a full role in the area of culture in their own countries. This involves getting in touch with partners in European countries in order to initiate, set up and organise co-operation projects in many areas of social life. The target groups are educational and management staff of associations in the area of adult education. The main areas are: Prepare and organise projectmeetings, conferences and seminars to initiate European co-operation in the following areas: 1.) inter-cultural and language learning, supporting the European enlargement process 2.) lifelong learning, including e-learning and "information, guidance and counselling services" for adult learners to develop, implement and disseminate "train the trainer" courses 3.) teaching and learning for specified target groups, such as senior citizens, young adults, handicapped people in order to adopt, improve, develop and disseminate innovative pedagogical methods and course design. The expected outcomes are: 1) setting up useful co-operation projects and activities, funded or non-funded, in the main fields of adult education 2) dissemination of good practice-projects 3) building up sustainable networks for intercultural exchange and lasting co-operation (by mailing lists, newsletter, address and contact pools).

This is knowledge which is connected to the people's own background and roots but unfortunately not considered enough in the current educational systems. These skills are closely connected to farmers, agriculture and rural areas. The profession of the farmer as well as rural areas in general have been under considerable change over the last decades. Therefore the number of people who know about their own culture has been decreasing so that there are less people to pass them on to the younger generation. The project will make investigations into which skills/knowledge/tradition/customs are about to get lost. The partners will establish a databank to be made public on the project's homepage with relevant addresses and contact points where education/information about traditions is available. In seminars and innovative educational courses (eg living museums, practical presentations of old skills, etc.) the learners will be encouraged to get new insights into the above mentioned topics. The transnational co-operation will carry through "Transnational Cultural Heritage Weekends" where the partner countries offer educational events about their cultural background in the other countries. This contributes to a better intercultural knowledge and unterstanding as well as an exchange of experience. The project will foster communication between older and younger generations and thus enable a higher social competence.

We want to learn about the different concepts and programmes and the different groups of women and their living conditions, the common and different issues in Western, Eastern, Northern and Southern Europe. Images are the issue of the project. The participating institutions want to develop an (virtual) exhibition about the different ways of life and the conditions of learning for women participating in further education. This exhibition will be lent to the different European institutions and will be sent by internet/e-mail. When using creative methods in the development of an exhibition, language will not be a barrier for women without any knowledge of foreign languages. Another advantage of the project is that when looking at each other, women from different countries and migrant and indigenous women achieve a better understanding. Introductory courses in new technologies (information and communication) and in English as a foreign language will be on offer. Project groups in the different institutions will be initiated. Bilateral meetings of participants and of teachers, an intercultural training for teachers and meetings of all institutions with coordinators, participants and teachers are very important. The process and the success of the project will be evaluated. Methods for all participants of the project will be developed to research the process of learning.

The purpose is to motivate the parents to participate in their children’s schooling to obtain a strengthening of the motivation/ability of the whole family to participate in society, first of all to increase knowledge of the educational system and to motivate for effective language learning. In a larger perspective the target is to let immigrant women learn in the same school as their children. Mutual knowledge, discussions in chat rooms and exchange of life stories will perhaps lead these groups towards a more active and participatory way of life and also through exchange and personal contacts involving both children, teachers and parents. Together we are trying to develop new methods of intercultural teaching. The success of the project depends on to what extent we will be able to involve and commit the participants. A parent being taught at the same school as the child will support the child in another way because of the school experiences, but perhaps also through the “ACT” project, simply by communicating with equals in other European countries. The other very important purpose of the ACT-project is to strengthen the local social network. The homepage works now and is used for exchange of global ideas about intercultural work, examples for best practice, methods and concepts.

Immer mehr Informationen über gesellschaftliche und politische Entwicklungen sind faktisch nur noch über das Internet zugänglich. Nach den vorliegenden Daten aus den verschiedenen Ländern der EU ist davon auszugehen, dass bereits in zwei Jahren eine Mehrheit der Bevölkerung in der EU einen Zugang zum Internet haben wird. Ältere Menschen sind von dieser Entwicklung in vielen Ländern der EU bislang ausgeschlossen. Besonders Frauen und ältere Menschen in ländlichen Bereichen stehen dem Internet noch sehr distant gegenüber. Es fehlt ihnen oft an Zugangsmöglichkeiten und guten Beispielen, um für sich das Internet zu erschließen. In dieser Lernpartnerschaft, in der ältere Lernende eine aktive Rolle spielen, sollen auf die Zielgruppe bezogene, didaktisch reflektierte, kulturspezifische Herangehensweisen zur Interneterschließung ausgetauscht und deren Übertragbarkeit auf andere Länder diskutiert werden. Dabei spielen die Initiierung von Multiplikatorennetzen, der Aufbau von Internetcafés für Ältere und die Aufbereitung zielgruppenspezifischer Lernmaterialien eine besondere Rolle. Ältere Menschen werden in diesem Projekt nicht nur als aktive Partner betrachtet, die an der Konzipierungsarbeit teilnehmen, sondern wirken auch im Projektverlauf als Tutoren und Mentoren mit.

It includes psychosocial support, vocational orientation, active participation in educational procedures, training programmes and work placements. The project aims at sharing experiences and models of work used by organisations across Europe, concerning the preparation for employment programmes in order to improve employability within specific target groups. The objectives of the project are to identify the methods by which each partner makes contacts with relevant organisations, in order to realise actions of training for socially excluded people, to examine and describe practices and methods of work followed by professionals in each of the partners’ countries, to exchange good practices, to implement an example of good practice in each of the partner organisations, to conduct initial formative evaluation by trainers and learners and finally, to disseminate all findings and results. More analytically, the activities of the project concern selection, preparation and adjustment to a profession through teaching of basic and life skills, development of self-awareness, self confidence, interests and talents and training on job searching techniques, CV formulation and interview skills. The project through its activities will ensure the active participation of trainers and learners and will have a positive impact in terms of expanding and improving professional practices and exploring new ways of collaboration between the organisations, the local authorities and the local labour offices.

The project will be realised in the form of 3 educational seminars. It will include the training of a group of persons with mental disability and psychosis by performing the Chinese martial art of “T'ai Chi Ch'uan”, as well as operating a puppet theatre to interpret a Chinese fairytale. The fairytale will be performed as a melodrama by the trainees themselves and it will lead to the final “product”, the setting up of a play. Our main target is the reinforcement of the organisations so that they may take initiatives to support the social integration of socially excluded people and raise the awareness of society.

They rightly insist that Europe be more democratic, more efficient and that European initiatives and policies be brought closer to their everyday concerns: The aim of the project is to: • promote the European dimension and knowledge about the European Union and European activities among adult learners. • form new strategies on how to attract/motivate people with regard to social/political issues and thus promote democracy in Europe by creating active citizenship. • understand the different types of social partnerships. • develop educational methods by learning from the participating partners, in order to create a new educational tool (a CD) for use in other organizations providing lifelong learning in Greece and in the other member states of the E.U. • promote the idea of “voluntarism” in our society and in Europe, since we host the Olympic Games in 2004. • raise awareness and increase the knowledge of adult learners in the values of the Olympic Idea, the Olympic Spirit, and universal peace not only in Greece, but also in our E.U. partner countries. • motivate retired adult learners to be “active European members”, because with their experience and their social position they can influence the opinion of other fellow citizens. Target groups of the project are local community retired adult learners and adult volunteer learners, study circle leaders. This project goes on for a third year because this learning partnership will promote lifelong learning, improve training of adult educators in the voluntary sector and build a dynamic learning network. The Pedagogical methods for adult active learning will be: simulation, group discussion, project research. Project outcomes: Adult learners will create: 1. A newsletter every 2 months, 2. A CD-ROM (software), 3. Web Page (the existing one will be updated in English). Evaluation of the project: 1. A questionnaire (pre-test) on the topics of the project will be given to the adult learners at the beginning of the project. - A questionnaire (after-test) will be given to the adult learners at the end of the seminars and project activities, to ascertain whether they have changed attitudes, opinions. 2. Report from the educators of the target groups, seminars, and project management, educational material. 3. Final report from the coordinator. The Evaluation of the project is the formative evaluation, because we intend to act and evaluate during the implementation of the project aiming at improving the quality of this project. We identify the weak points of the project in order to make certain proposals for improving the project. Regular partner meetings will help the evaluation of the project and the development of the best strategies for the fulfilment of its aims. The various phases of the project will be in a power point CD-ROM and this educational material will be used in future training activities. The development of the final software presentation and a project CD-ROM will be disseminated as an educational tool for similar institutions of lifelong learning education and for the partners.

The common programme will include: introduction to educational topics (history of local folklore, local psychology, social psychology, cultural anthropology) and also practices (socio-cultural encouragement, direct assistance). The objective will be to record and preserve all those elements which form culture and civilisation in each participating country, providing, at the same time, the women trainees with the opportunity to work in this area voluntarily or even professionally. Our sources will be elderly people whom we are going to approach using creative activities as a method for recording: folklore and customs, traditional cuisine, songs, stories, tales, anecdotes, professions, local costumes, embroidery, etc. In addition, during the second educational phase, the women trainees will acquire the expertise to organise programmes of creative activities for the elderly and the disabled, especially those who cannot move from their homes. The working framework will be the same for every country, but the needs may be different. All different stages of the project will be recorded separately for each country (on DVD) and the results will be presented to the local communities during the final seminar of the project.

It will address all aspects of the organisations’ function and structure i.e.: • Management of adult education organisations • Research of the educational needs of the population in the countryside • Development of Strategies for stimulating the adult farmers' demand for learning • Design of new curricula according to the educational needs of the target group • Introduction of new subjects through new pedagogical approaches • Exchange of experience in the provision of support services (counselling after the completion of the training, encouraging entrepreneurship etc.) Each year there will be an initial investigative and preparatory phase where local meetings, questionnaires and research will provide the base for further discussions. A transnational preparatory meeting of those responsible for the project will follow which will prepare for the co-ordinated mobility of administrative, teaching and support staff. This coordinated mobility will take the form of a large transnational meeting in one of the countries involved, where a number of workshops will address the above-mentioned topics. The results of the meeting will be processed and publicised in printed and electronic form. Staff development conferences for the organisations in the regions of the partners will then take place and will help to diffuse the findings of the partners. An evaluation phase will complete the year’s work. Evaluation will take place via questionnaire and informal discussions during a two-hour tele-meeting. In the second and third year the project will move into curricula and learning tool development and testing which will involve teaching staff and learners more. The mobility at this stage will involve learners.

The institutions taking part in this project intend to approach the integration of immigrants from different viewpoints. We will exchange experiences, ideas and working methods with the aim of finding good pathways to deal with these problems. In September there was a project meeting in Bucharest to work on the activity plan and then from October to February work in the institutions with students, elaboration of questionnaires, cultural events, information and documentation. There is special attention to immigrant integration in our programme and we are in touch with local communities and NGOs.

The project will use ICT and the final product will be a website, Mirror will be elaborated by the students with the collaboration of trainers and experts. It will contain different sections related to the educational, socio-cultural and working life of the young, and also the different practices and characteristics of the participating institutions so that they will learn from one another. The web will be in 6 languages, English being the common lingua franca among the students. This project is especially meaningful to the students mainly due to the transnational cooperation, the relationship with other students through internet, e-mail, etc... and it is an important motivation for foreign language learning, writing skills, ICT, and communication and cooperation skills. Also for trainers this exchange of experience is proving very valuable. The project has been disseminated in the local community with enormous success and there have not been any significant changes in objectives though the website has been enlarged introducing new ideas and measures, like a database and comparative analysis of the information.

It is two-phased: in the first phase the project researches how the young perceive disabilities; in a second phase it will try to make parents and teachers aware of these results by means of the publication of a questionnaire. They will also be distributed to the media, the schools were they have all-inclusive classes, so that they can value the benefit of such an integrated education. Throughout the project they will exchange materials and good practices about how in other European countries these matters are dealt with, how disabilities are perceived by teenagers and how these feelings are researched. It will include a comparative study with the different educational practices in the participating countries. Meetings took place in Madrid, March 2003, and Sezanne, July 2003, to elaborate questionnaires and then to analyse the results coming out of them. The most important factor was the educational innovation that means the pilot concept of the project “Appreciate the Difference”: evaluate the advantages of integration not only for disabled people but mainly for the rest of the students. The compilation of international materials in integrated education has been very meaningful. Two new partners have applied in the renewal: CPN from PL and DIA-SPORT from BG, but both were rejected.

This project is aimed at improving the quality of education through a partnership among institutions that try to involve parents in their children's education participating in the school councils. In this second year the design of training modules will be the target according to the detected and shared needs among the partners. Taking as a starting point a positive experience carried out by the Townhall of Quart de Poblet together with the University of Valencia, there will be an exchange of experiences to achieve innovative and profitable methods that can improve the quality of school education. In the project we count on experienced institutions that can be a point of reference for smaller ones and also different backgrounds to bring varied points of view to the project. There was a preparatory meeting in November to set up the concrete workplan, a descriptive report of the problem and the agreement of transnational cooperation. Then they elaborated the questionnaire and the field book and identified the training needs of parents within the School Councils. A web was designed and implemented. The intention is to design new materials, contents, and dynamics adapted to the circumstances of each partner so that they can incorporate them in their adult training programmes. No further changes have been envisaged.

The objectives are to try and integrate the different levels of basic skills and training according to the individual needs of students, to create a group to prepare the illiterate people to pass the driving license test, to have socio-cultural workshops, groups of Spanish for immigrants and Arab for Spanish. For the Spanish students, the project was meaningful because contact with the partners from other countries really made them aware of their belonging to a supranational community and motivated them to engage in written communication activities using ICT with the partners. The materials are very useful for the participating students and will be incorporated in their everyday work. Also important the involvement of the institution staff and the local community, the meeting was reported in the media and that helped with the project dissemination. Also involvement of the regional education authorities should be underlined. There have not been changes to the project except for the elimination of the Arab language due to lack of appropriate staff and it has been substituted by other languages. Minor changes in the time schedule of meetings. The main problems were the working overload that the management implies, the inexperience of the partnership and the delay in getting the funding.

(ENGALL) All adult education institutions both private and public have undergone important changes in Europe in recent years. Managing and planning issues get more and more complicated while funding gets more scarce. Also these institutions have to attract clients as if they were private enterprises and their managing teams lack the necessary training for that and they also have to care for their educational objectives and commitments with society. It is necessary to give them the required competences to engage new groups of adults and at the same time to care for their traditional customers and provide them with new competences and skills required in the information and globalized society of nowadays, and that requires new managing skills that this project intends to clarify and provide.

The activities will be addressed at the adult unemployed population, (women, people at risk of social exclusion and disabled people) to try and improve their chances to enter or re-enter the labour market. The training will facilitate intercultural education within the entrepreneur and develop the spirit of the community. The training of entrepreneurs will receive due attention because of the great interest it raises in the present socio-economic situation and the special need there is in Europe for people who can find new entrepreneurial ways and can profit from the opportunities the European Union offers us. We have already researched the characteristics and assets that make a successful entrepreneur (values, attitudes, skills, difficulties they find, how to overcome them, etc..). Now we are designing training programmes that may be effective and helpful for those willing to start their careers in this field in the common framework of the European Union. The results so far have been mainly the involvement of students in all the activities aimed at entrepreneur training and also the trainers with the exchange of transnational experiences. In this third year the coordinaton was taken over by a former partner and the previous coordinator has left the project.

All the participating institutions are worried because of the growing difficulties parents face when educating their children due to the present society where consumerism has assumed an important place in the scale of values of the young. We think it is important to help and back the parents in this task by means of a forum where they can rely on the guidance and counselling of experts and also hare their problems with other parents and make themselves aware of the important responsibilities they have in this matter. The exchange of experiences can enrich the work each independent institution is doing and the final products and materials can be used by other European institutions working in the field. The implication of students so far has been scarce. The most important thing has been to know what the different partners are doing, their daily work, that has permitted the setting up of common goals and how to motivate the families. The partners work with parents very differently from one another: mothers in prison, immigrant parents, disadvantaged parents due to socioeconomic reasons, socially excluded families.. It has been necessary to find common ground in the professional organisation of each partner and the nature of the intervention to be taken to tackle the objectives targeted. There have been minor changes in the time schedule and one of the meetings was eliminated, July 2003. One complaint is the difference in funding of the partners that makes it difficult to have the same meetings, produce the same sort of materials, etc.. One positive aspect is the continuous backing of the NAs.

Public providers are usually official and local centres, the latter being the main providers because they know better the educational and training needs of their citizens. Towns with less than 20.000 inhabitants are making a great effort to give their citizens a wide choice of training so that this is not a privilege for those living in larger towns or in cities. But, how, what should be the answer to the growing demand, what is the best model; all these questions need up-to-date answers. Objectives of the project: -To elaborate a model to manage and organize local adult education centres. -To exchange experiences among different adult education centres in Europe where the responsibility for adult education lies totally or partially with the local authorities. -To revise existing experiences and new future proposals adapted to present needs. -To motivate youngsters and adults to learn bearing in mind the need of lifelong learning if they want to be quality citizens. -To help small towns organize the Adult Education Plan. The project is a third year renewal. In the first year there were project meetings in the participating countries: NL, SE, ES, UK to discuss issues of interest and visit adult education institutions. In the second year, there was a meeting in NL and a videoconference to exchange experiences. The workplan was carried out as foreseen and the number of partners increased. The dossiers were elaborated as previously planned and there were no changes in the objectives, activity plan or timing.

We think it is necessary to take new technologies to rural disadvantaged areas and in this way bring other cultures and languages to the clients. This approach will favour the exchange of different experiences and also make the users aware of the opportunities that new technologies can offer them. We think it is still too early to report on the detailed activities carried out by each of the participating institutions because so far they have been devoted to the needs of their areas, the difficulties and possibilities. The local authorities have been contacted and participate in the project. The involvement of the staff and students is remarkable. In reference to objectives we have added new components for the second year: the importance of education and culture through the handicrafts, the introduction of new languages and the use of Internet as a means of communication.

It is important to devise methodologies that are user-friendly, hands-on and attractive. The adult education institutions can mediate and overcome the generation gap in other ways with ICT training. The adult students need new cultural spaces, new contexts not limited to traditional curricula. Our project tries to make the students approach digital literacy, use the new audiovisual media and construct a website to be used as a newspaper that can guide and inform the learning processes of adult students. The aim is that our students can face a computer without apprehension and fear, that they can learn what they are for and what use they can make of them, that they know that ICT helps people but does not replace them. Two issues of the magazine have been produced so far, June and December 2002, and two more will be produced in this second year. In the first year the problems with partners from IT and SE have been constant, and finally they have left the project. We have had two international meetings and another one is scheduled in RO this second year to prepare a Seminar on European Programmes and Adult Education to be held in Rostock. The partnership is now composed of 6 institutions and 4 countries. The work plan had to be adapted for the institutions that have no students and we have added a strong component of art, music and culture.

The final aim of this training is not only that the student finds a job, but also to provide him with strategies to look for a better one, to get skills demanded in the labour market, to be self-confident and autonomous in his working life. The labour market is always undergoing changes, a lack of stability and requiring new professional profiles and people should adapt to new technologies, and that's why the occupational training has to follow those guidelines and provide the students with tools to comply with these changing demands. It is a renewal. There have been project meetings in ES, RO and IT to set up cooperation guidelines. An analysis of the labour market has been carried out and training activities for the partnership. Also some questionnaires for employers and students were produced. It is too early to evaluate the results of this first phase.

En choisissant de nous adresser d’abord aux « seniors », nous visons aussi indirectement les juniors qui sont leurs petits-enfants, et plus généralement l’ensemble de la société civile, tous publics confondus, étant tous appelés à devenir des citoyens européens. Les contextes polonais, italiens et français étant très différents concernant les universités du 3ème âge : • en Pologne, en cours de structuration autour de celle de Cracovie, déjà expérimentée ; • en Italie, notre partenaire de Turin possède une longue expérience dans ce domaine mais très orientée sur la philatélie (ayant même rédigé un manuel didactique dédié) ; • en France, ou les BTS ou Universités de Tous les savoirs sont beaucoup plus « généralistes ». Nous espérons atteindre nos objectifs • en organisant dans chacune des villes concernées (Turin, Milan, Cracovie, Lyon) un premier séminaire-test (ou « pilote ») de deux jours en septembre-octobre 2003, (suivis d’autres sessions). • pour mettre au point une « méthodologie » (pas forcément commune aux 3 pays, puisque devant tenir compte des « spécificités nationales » pour les futures Formations de formateurs à la philatélie pédagogique ; • pour proposer aux auditeurs des universités du 3ème âge de créer eux-mêmes de nouveaux documents philatéliques ; • -grâce à des visites croisées à l’occasion de ces session-prototypes, qui nous donnerons également l’occasion de connaître les « bonnes pratiques » des pays partenaires (visites des UTA).

Il s’est spécialisé dans l’autoformation accompagnée depuis 1994 avec son Espace Langues et depuis 1999 avec son Espace Bureautique. Depuis 2002, l’ensemble des autres matières générales est conçu selon le modèle de l’autoformation accompagnée. Mais beaucoup de questions sont encore soulevées et demandent une concertation plus large des pratiques et des mises en situation. Le GRETA s’est également engagé dans la formation à distance mais uniquement du point de vue théorique. C’est pourquoi il recherche une coopération européenne pour préciser, concevoir et développer ce type de pédagogie. Le site de Sézanne du GRETA des pays Champenois est une site de petite taille qui a quand même pu développer un certain type de coopération européenne à travers des actions du FSE (individualisation, formation à des détenus) ou du programme Adapt Dynamo (conception d’un site internet, création d’un Cd-Rom de formation sur la maintenance informatique, conférence sur l’e-commerce). Déjà, des effets extrêmement positifs sont apparus tant au niveau de l’organisation (motivation des personnels, intérêt croissant des plus récalcitrants, ouverture sur l’Europe y compris pour les stagiaires) qu’au niveau local (implication des élus locaux, de la presse locale, de l’office du tourisme, des établissements hôteliers), régional (intérêt académique pour notre réseau). D’autre part, en travaillant sur la base de recherche de partenaires, nous sommes devenus une organisation recevant dans le cadre de deux projets Leonardo Da Vinci – Mobilité, l’un avec l’Espagne, actuellement en cours, et l’autre avec la Roumanie (à venir). Pour 2004, nous devrions reconduire le projet avec l’Espagne et sommes engagés dans deux projets du même pays, les deux avec l’Italie.

Nos hypothèses sont les suivantes : 1- une bonne appropriation des usages des TIC favorise l’autonomie des usagers dans leur acquisition de savoirs et de connaissances et participe ainsi à la réduction de la fracture numérique, notamment en ce qui concerne les personnes en situation précaire. Cela entre dans la logique de l’apprentissage tout au long de la vie. 2- Par voie de conséquence, cette appropriation accroît l’efficacité dans l’action et les usagers peuvent réutiliser ces compétences dans les démarches concernant leurs activités professionnelles (recherche d’emploi, création d’entreprise). 3- Tout en prenant en compte la plus value de la médiation sociale apportée par les professionnels et par les pairs, les TIC suppléent aux lacunes des systèmes éducatifs pour l’accès aux emplois et l’intégration sociale, de façon innovante et stratégique. Dans le contexte en mutation profonde de la société de l’information, il s’agit d’estimer quelle est la plus value des TIC dans la mise en place de systèmes de formation non formels efficaces et accessibles auprès de publics hétérogènes susceptibles de devenir acteurs du développement économique de leur pays au sein de la communauté européenne. Afin de s’intégrer dans une Europe compétitive et dynamique, il est important d’immerger le citoyen dans un environnement à forte dominante technologique et de l’aider à franchir certains obstacles : économiques (coût des matériels), culturels (craintes face à la machine) et sociaux (poids des contextes et des habitudes environnementales).

Parmi ces publics, nous rencontrons des difficultés sociales et de suivi quant aux apprentissages, et c’est pourquoi les partenaires travaillent avec des réseaux de volontaires qui complètent les équipes éducatives professionnelles dans différents domaines : - L’appui social individualisé L’aide à l’apprentissage de base L’intégration dans des réseaux sociaux, culturels et professionnels Par la rencontre de volontaires et de responsables des organismes, nous voulons connaître et enrichir les pratiques des volontaires quant aux thématiques abordées. D’autre part, c’est aussi permettre aux organisations de gérer au mieux ses réseaux de volontaires au travers d’un tutorat éducatif adéquat. La diffusion des travaux réalisés se fera par des brochures sur les différents thèmes abordés. Ces résultats seront diffusés à partir des sites web de chaque organisme, et destinés à des réseaux de volontaires et d’autres organismes de formation continue. Nous avons prévu une journée de diffusion et lancement à Orléans à la fin du projet. La continuité du projet se fera à partir de ce lancement sur un forum internet, dont les destinataires seront les volontaires impliqués dans ces organismes de formation continue.

C’est un projet monté par 5 organisations partenaires allemande, Italienne, lituanienne, française et espagnole, avec pour principal objectif de rassembler quelques travailleurs sociaux et animateurs des différents pays pour 5 rencontres dans les pays respectifs, au cours desquelles ils auront l’opportunité d’échanger sur leur expérience des environnements multiculturels, sur la manière dont ils gèrent l’interculturalité dans leur travail quotidien et dans leur vie et au cours desquelles ils pourront découvrir d’autres environnements. Entre chaque rencontre, ils pourront explorer ces thématiques à un niveau local. Pendant toute la durée du projet, ils seront considérés comme groupe d’apprenants et seront guidés et suivis par des formateurs de chaque organisation, qui animeront la discussion et faciliteront les échanges. A partir de ces diagnostics, l’équipe de formateurs pourra alors proposer des méthodes pour que les animateurs et travailleurs sociaux puissent acquérir les compétences nécessaires en matière d’apprentissage interculturel. L’idée est de développer l’apprentissage interculturel comme outil éducatif pour l’apprentissage tout au long de la vie et pour la formation continue non-formelle de ce groupe. Les compétences acquises devront leur permettre in fine de travailler de manière innovante avec des groupes socialement défavorisés.

Ces modules pourront être testés et validés par les apprenants associés à ce projet. 2°/ La formation à distance Parallèlement à ces modules d’autoformation, la formation à distance sera l’une des réponses au premier objectif de ce projet. En effet, il paraît judicieux d’inclure la formation à distance dans le projet d’autoformation. Pour atteindre ce deuxième objectif, la méthodologie de travail proposée sera la même : échanges de pratiques, rédaction d’une charte qualitative. Une méthodologie de travail sera également à construire (quand inclure la formation à distance, avec quel support, avec quel matériel, pour quel public…).

Cette évolution peut engendrer des phénomènes d’exclusion et d’éclatement de la cellule familiale. En année 1, 4 partenaires de 3 pays d’Europe (Portugal, Italie, France) ont défini une méthodologie partagée pour appréhender cette problématique, mis en place des outils de repérage et de valorisation de pratiques innovantes de conciliation, développé des échanges entre apprenants grâce aux TIC et une sensibilisation linguistique pour mieux se comprendre et se connaître. En année 2, un élargissement du partenariat a été recherché ainsi qu’un développement des mobilités pour les apprenants. De plus, de nouvelles pratiques ont été mises au point pour favoriser des confrontations croisées sur les temps de vie et la conciliation. En année 3, il s’agit de poursuivre l’effort qui vise à accompagner les apprenants dans une prise de conscience de leurs propres pratiques, de dégager des perspectives critiques par un appui à la réflexion et à l’observation pour permettre une meilleure décision dans leurs choix de vie. De ce fait, des modules de formation-accompagnement à la gestion des temps de vie seront développés, des conférences et colloques entre les différentes parties concernées par la conciliation seront mis en place, ainsi qu’un lieu de ressources et d’auto cheminement par le biais d’un site Internet (ouverture et transférabilité).

A travers ces échanges culturels et, cette ouverture Européenne, nous souhaitons donner une chance à ceux qui n’en ont pas eu beaucoup jusqu’à maintenant.

La participation conjointe, dans chaque pays, d'écoles, de centres de formateurs et d'organismes professionnels permettra de développer la complémentarité des phases en centres et des phases en entreprises. La confrontation des pratiques dans les pays européens partenaires devra permettre d'améliorer l'efficacité de tels dispositifs. Le fait de nous appuyer sur des entreprises engagées dans des démarches d'agriculture durable inscrit ce projet dans une problématique plus global de développement rural. Le volet transnational permettra également à terme l'adjonction de phases d'alternance dans un pays étranger ( échange de stagiaires), l'élaboration de modules de découvertes linguistiques et la réalisation de voyages d'étude. Outre leur efficience pédagogique de telles activités devront donner aux apprenants une vision plus positive de la formation ce qui les rendra plus ouverts au concept de "formation tout au long de la vie" et d'autre part une ouverture d'esprit sur d'autres cultures qui pourra contribuer à développer une attitude de "citoyenneté européenne".

Ils constituent de précieux outils d'intégration, de citoyenneté et de lutte contre le racisme. Prenant ainsi des responsabilités dans ces espaces, les parents de cultures minoritaires sont ainsi valorisés dans leur culture d'origine et renforcés dans leurs compétences et responsabilités parentales. Ce programme a pour finalité de mutualiser les pratiques innovantes et les bonnes pratiques qui favorisent l'implication et l'Education des parents dans des lieux d'accueil petite enfance fondés sur le respect de la culture des parents. Ces bonnes pratiques seron largement diffusées en Europe, grâce notamment au réseau DECET, réseau sur les pratiques antidiscriminatoires auquel participent les 4 partenaires. Ce programme s'appuie sur des : - échanges entre parents immigrés et en grande difficulté pour renforcer leurs capacités à s'impliquer activement et à prendre des responsabilités dans les lieux d'accueil petite enfance, à accéder à une citoyenneté Européenne - séminaires de professionnels petite enfance pour renforcer leurs capacités à accueillir et à éduquer les parents - séminaires de formateurs pour travailler à l'élaboration de méthodes d'accompagnement et formation de ces lieux d'accueil.

The main activity of the project will be the sharing of information and experiences among the partners of various methods of combating long term unemployment among the target group. Partners will practice and further develop the various methods within their own organisations with the adult learners. Project activities will also include examining learner centred approaches to training for long-term unemployment, developing methods of increasing selfconfidence in adult learners and developing ways of building support systems for the target group. Project staff and learners from the project partnership will travel to project meetings in the partner organisations to gain practical experience about the methods being used, to share experiences and actively gather information on combating long term unemployment. A website will be developed by the adult learners where information on the project and its progression will be available. The end product will be a publication (in brochure/booklet format) in each partner language detailing examples of good practice and case studies on combating long term unemployment among adult learners with few qualifications.

This project will allow the participating institutions, involved in EdA (Adult Education), to exchange both socialpsychological- pedagogical and didactic experiences and cases linked to questions concerning the reception and balance of competences and their certification, both at the beginning and at the end of the project with the purpose of helping working adults achieve success in an active participation in society through education and training. It will develop strategies to stimulate adult learners’ requests for education through experimentation with new teaching methods as well as ways to attribute credits for the competences acquired at school and outside formal education channels. There will be experiments in search of a system of certification that can be shared among the institutions functioning in the different areas of adult education. Particular attention will be given to transverse competences aimed at greater student self-esteem. The “final product” will consist of a collection of models of intervention, also available via computer. The system of monitoring will allow comparison of all the results obtained during the two years of the project in order to extract a “common model” that might best guarantee the adult student the right to be an active citizen.

The project “EU-NQ best practice Net” aims at establishing a network of highly competent European institutions to analyse and evaluate best practice pedagogic examples of the institutions in the reintegration of disadvantages persons on the labour market. The network will deal with best practice examples in the field of long-term unemployed, ethnic and other minorities (first year phases), gender problems and elderly unemployed +45 years (second year phases). In the frame of the learning partnership, different concepts and examples of good practice will be evaluated by a defined evaluation frame through all the partners and put into a best practice report together with further innovative ideas and perspectives for future developments. Beside this the network will organise three mobility actions where learners and trainer will have the possibility to exchange their ideas and gain new experiences and feel the European dimension and mobility. Furthermore the network, during the first year, concentrates its activities also on two horizontal topics we see as especially important for this target group (new technologies and accreditation and certification of non-formal learning). Here the network will run some research study in the institutions and develop possibilities, recommendations and models. It is very important to mention that the network is based on a prior initiative of the project partners who have already met at their own expense to discuss the project and that the network is planned to continue for a sustainable time beyond the project funding period.

At the same time we wish to point out how we mean to interact with the social system and be engaged in establishing co-operations and supporting solidarity. It is fundamental to make the people attending the course think about their personal experience and analyse their previous position as children (family history – genealogical plan). We place at the parents' disposal the pedagogic and psychological notions for everyday family life. We think this could help them to review their experience and to improve their abilities in preventing and coping with the difficulties in relations with their children which often result in social problems. This project aims to convey the necessary notions and hints to build up naturally an informal supporting network of mutual help among the families involved through the development and deepening of the sense of citizenship, of social responsibility and civil liability as well as a sense of belonging. Some examples of discussions: - issues connected to getting custody of a child and adoption (troubles and solidarity); - the developing processes of the family of the people attending the course (daily experience); - how the school, sociological-sanitary and legal systems work (social aspects). The program includes a training section on some forms of communication to develop co-operation among parents, trainers and other professionals working in different educational contexts attended by their children. The standards of assessments achieved during the course will be checked when the solution of real problems placed in unreal contexts will be faced together. The project means to emphasize parents' educational skills and their abilities in interaction and communication and to make them more effective.

In addition, there is the difficulty in communicating in the language of the host country. The aim of the project is to involve associations and local entities, which have in common the necessity to fill this “gap” which slows down the process of integration and hampers the quality of work done by these unskilled workers. The interaction between European partners will allow each one to focus on all aspects of the problems which are often underestimated but real, with the aim of increasing the quality of the work done by women immigrants, and at the same time favouring their complete integration, in the perspective of social and cultural growth in an ever opening world.

This requirement is determined by the necessity to employ human and technical resources which each institution can rely on in order to answer the growing demand for adult education and training in the disadvantaged areas of the regions involved. For this reason, schools face new tasks: they need to become active interlocutors for regional centres and institutions involved in Life-long Learning and play a new role in the study and elaboration of methods and best practices to be used in this field. The schools, considered as partners and consulting centres, will be able to contribute to the development of an Educational Network for adult education, which will be of great cultural importance for disadvantaged areas. On the basis of a regional analysis, an appropriate offer for further education will be elaborated for the needs identified; the status quo, in each area will show the necessity to reduce the digital and linguistic illiteracy of the target groups identified and the need to offer chances of education and training in the field of ICT and English language in order to give new opportunities for re-integration into the work process. The common theme at the basis of the research and study of “Best Educational Methodologies” to be followed with adult learners will be Cultural Tourism and will include the possibility to support the artistic and cultural heritage of each region involved. The project will offer new opportunities to improve and enhance the specific educational offer of each institution involved and will allow the direct exchange and confrontation of didactic practices, planning of activities, training in other institutions (seminars and workshops), thanks to the mobility of teachers inside the partnership, the use of new means of communication and information: e-learning, videoconferencing, monitoring and evaluation carried out during the courses. A regional network will be developed for the sharing and exchange of methodologies and didactics as well as the values of monitoring and the evaluation indicators. The target groups of this initiative will be: local community groups, economically or socially disadvantaged groups and women. The following concrete results will be produced at the end of the project: 1°: Guidelines for Adult Education in the field of Basic Informatics and English, studied and obtained thanks to experimentation, methodological exchange and research carried out in each partner country. This document will take into account firstly the peculiar requirements of the target group and secondly the requirements of the different territories, in particular as regards their development in terms of cultural tourism; 2° Teaching tools aimed at the application of the methodology; 3° WEB platform for the sharing of didactic supports and for publication and dissemination of the guidelines; 4° Consolidation and extension of the network, thanks to the action of awareness and involvement with other Educative Agencies, carried out by the partners during the project; 5° Values of the monitoring and the evaluation indicators reached during the phase of experimental application of methodology.

The project consists of a series of seminars in which, through constructive discussion, teachers from the partner countries will agree on the instruments to use for an evaluation of the level of knowledge achieved by the learner who is attending informal educational projects and to a self-evaluation of the effectiveness of the teacher’s assistance. The collection of some existing experiences, the discussion and the possibility to use particular situations, countries and contexts will be the starting point.

The objective is to compare and share best practices in the areas of communication, orientation and training. The project will explore these areas to produce “best practices” and a common intervention model so as to improve the learners’ approach to training. With that aim the project asks the following questions: The creation of a standard model aimed at communication, orientation and training, what advantage does it assure to learners and what support is given to the development of adult education? What is the orientation to provide in relation to the needs of the learners? What are the most suitable instruments and surveys to detect these needs? These questions make the active support of the learners necessary as privileged indicators in the formulation of survey instruments. Through their own experiences and attributes, each participant will contribute to create a common model. An ad hoc training will be organised for those who will use the individualised orientation model, which will be tried out by each partner. The partnership is composed of institutions and organisations in the field of adult education in Eastern and Western Europe. The final products will result from the objectives reached and shared through seminars, printed in books in the different languages to consult through the website created for the purpose. The site will function as a vehicle for communication between one visit and another.

Il vise la mise en place et la promotion d’une approche formatrice spécialisée dans le monde musical, en direction d’un public particulier (adultes, immigrés et chômeurs) en milieux sociaux défavorisés. Le but du plan est de répandre la sensibilité et la culture musicale sans distinctions de genre, par l’activité chorale et l’éducation à l’écoute d’apprenants adultes, dans des couches de la société ou des secteurs de ville où des problèmes sociaux de communication et d’intégration sociale se manifestent. Des approches non traditionnelles pour l’apprentissage musical seront développées, commençant un processus d’intégration, avec le soutien de la politique sociale du territoire et en collaboration avec les centres sociaux et culturels plus particulièrement tournés vers un public d’adultes et de personnes âgées.

Concrete outcomes can be observed in gender mainstreaming actions, but also in the training area. This project will focus on the latter point. The integration of gender aspects in training is relatively young and there is no established and broadly recognized method. All over Europe we can see isolated initiatives trying this integration. The aim of the present partnership is to create a European forum of exchange of experience and a compendium of existing methods. The integration of gender aspects in training will be analysed on two different levels. The first concerns the way training is designed and organised in order to allow equal access to the courses to both genders. The second one is oriented to the way gender differences are treated in the teaching process and in the lay-out of course materials. At the end of the project, the compendium will give a synthesized view on the state of the art concerning gender training methods as used and experienced in the different institutions involved.

Nongovernmental organisations from four different countries, active and experienced in the field of (non-formal) education against right-wing extremism, will develop and disseminate ‘pilots of best practices’. These pilots (presented in the form of information leaflets) aim to support the work of institutions, organisations, initiatives and informal networks which build an important infrastructure in the struggle against xenophobia, intolerance and right-wing extremism. Focussing on a specific European region this partnership is a pilot project for pan-European projects with the aim of developing Europe-wide networks of life-long learning for tolerance and understanding.

These easy-to-enrol courses are often the start of further education in the framework of lifelong learning. To contact each other and to show their artwork, they will discover that extra skills are needed. This will encourage the participating learners to attend new courses: IT courses, language courses, (cultural) history courses. Extra skills the learners will develop in this project: making use of internet-based communication platforms language skills knowledge of cultural history of their own country and of the participating countries organising and exhibitions Artwork made by the students as well as an introduction into the highlights of their national art history are put on a webbased platform and are shown in the participating countries. Mobility of students will be used to attend lessons in other countries. The learning partners (staff) will discuss in this project how to bring the adult learners from informal / non-formal education in arts to formal education and collect their good practices.

The project is located within the philosophical framework that teachers must become actively engaged in learning through interaction with their students. This in turn should lead to the creation of spaces in which teachers/trainers can learn with their students and where students can learn about themselves and one another. Members of minority groups face many challenges in the context of successful integration, particularly from a language and social skills point of view. This project seeks to provide a framework in which educators and learners can work successfully within an intercultural context so the individuals can participate autonomously in learning programmes, through development of language and social skills, and deal with agencies and systems in the host country. Within that context, the project will seek to document current provisions and existing practices in relation to initial education services for diverse multicultural groups in partner organisations, will pilot training opportunities within an adult education context for professionals in the field, both national and of different nationalities, to work together, and will evaluate the process of existing provisions within each organisation with a view to broadening these provisions in response to presented needs.

The participants of the project are practitioners – representatives of educational establishments or public authorities – whose immediate responsibility includes the implementation of Lifelong Learning principles. For every country, a group of around 20 people will be compiled, and two workshops will be conducted. The methodology of the workshops will be similar for all countries. During the first workshop the participants discuss the situation in a given country, especially what have been the obstacles in LLL implementation and how the problems could be solved. The second workshop serves for elaborating and discussing the materials received from other countries. The results from all workshops will be evaluated by leading experts, and formulated in guidelines on how to implement the LLL principles in educational and training establishments. The guidelines will be disseminated using the existing network of Socrates offices. The project also serves as a feasibility study for generating and implementing a more wide and in-depth project, with partners from at least six countries, and with the objective to test the practical implementation of the elaborated guidelines.

What sorts of places do they create for meeting and debating? What roles do places of knowledge and cultural heritage (libraries, museums, archives) play? What are the "stories" underlying the common reasoning? Typical places and meeting environments (a "week-end community" in Finland, a library and a study circle in Sweden, an inn in Austria, a public square in Italy) will be analysed with regard to their role in political education processes. An exhibition will be planned and implemented in the partner countries, and the project carries out a mental-map study on public places where tutors and learners meet for political education in the respective countries. The main product after two years will be a book of European educational stories which describe educational paths in Europe following the questions concerning the culture of meeting. The book is meant to motivate and inspire tutors in adult education to reason about the right place and the rhetorics of democracy when planning educational processes.

Neither a discography is available nor has the heritage of Schellac musical documents been treated in a way that ensures its preservation. The project intends to make a review of this heritage and highlights the European context of the documents' history of reception, their respective place in the history of music and their sociology. Thus, the preconditions for a new, pedagogical use of this genre will be generated. The project partners want to create the basis for international standards in preserving these musical documents and making them available for educational purposes. The endangered heritage of Schellac documents contains important information about European culture which cannot be found in any other media and would otherwise be irretrievably lost.

An adaptable open framework or communication tool is to be developed which enables adult learners to present aspects of their own life and culture to others. Participants will thus undergo a net-based learning experience and at the same time create intercultural learning materials. Life Link will use the internet for the following target groups: adult returners to education, senior citizens, refugees, immigrants and minorities (both ethnic and special needs) to communicate and exchange cultural aspects. Life Link will further enlarge the spirit of European citizenship by breaking down intercultural barriers and by creating communities within the European Union and beyond.

The general objectives, from which each partner will identify priorities and adequate answers, are the diagnosis of parents’ needs and motivations as educators; the preparation of a work plan answering those needs and motivations; the adaptation and implementation of a learning programme with a view to: a) implementing family advocacy oriented at the parents’ self-determination; b) the development of personal motivations and competencies; c) services providing counselling, guidance and social support to parents’ needs; d) the creation or consolidation of local networks to support social and educational processes e) the empowerment of parents in order to promote solutions for the community’s social development; f) on-the-job training of technicians. The trans-national partnership will make cooperation possible between organisations with different levels of experience and knowledge, each with different groups at risk, and so setting up a real learning partnership. The strategies/methodologies are to: stimulate the parents as individuals and in a learners’ group; stimulate their participation in educational and social processes; create natural networks; develop appropriate structures for parents’ representation; enlarge the local support partnership.

We cannot forget that when these questions start to be looked at, this population, given their social-economic status, used to be (and in a way still is, if they are not motivated) unaware of this problem. With their horizons limited to the area where they live, they are unable or not interested in this feeling of European citizenship. The acquisition, development, confrontation in terms of pedagogical and methodological approaches in the field of adult education, will always be the vector that will remain adjacent to all this cooperation activity and that we aim to enrich during the Project. All this will take account the creativity, diligence and motivation of the learners. Since this is a very specific student population group, we hope the selected sub-themes be directly related to the life experience of the students and/or the training they are receiving, so we considered professional expectations/training motivation/local or national economic activities/work market situation/social and cultural aspects.

Therefore the methodology of life histories in adult education assumes special importance. We believe that with the uncertain and impermanent context we live in, the development of life knowledge will give people the chance to understand and participate in the knowledge society, mobilising through them the knowledge and the knowledge of problem-solving which the world faces today. One of the enriching sides of this project is, without doubt, its diversity, the gathering of schools, associations and enterprises that intervene in the adult learning and formation, either in a formal or non-formal context. We expect that from a joint effort with local and regional institutions we can reach the valorisation of adult learning and training suitable to a changing reality.

One of the important aims is to refresh and invigorate the learning skills of senior students by working in regular study groups. Also the project will promote participants´abilities to use different means of media like internet and e-mail. The aim is to achieve a life story viewed from the point of social order and class, history, family relations and general values. The project activities will promote and widen cultural, social and historical knowledge of European nations and between neighbouring countries. The work will also contribute comparative future visions of senior people in their own countries. In all the participating countries there will be some study groups where the students recall and discuss their memories. From each sub-theme material will be collected and finalised. Some picture exhibitions will be built based on the pictures of the senior students. Senior students are encouraged to exchange their experiences with each other by writing letters or by e-mail. During the first year senior groups were established in each country. The groups adopted variable working concepts and methods depending on the history of their country. In the second year senior groups met each other, discussed the themes of the project and presented photo exhibitions to each other. The mentors have met regularly during the two years, they have agreed a joint working schedule, discussed the themes and the methods used in senior groups. The study groups have produced a lot of material. The mentors have collected the material from different countries and planned the use of the material. In the last year there will be a final mentors´ seminar where the summary and evaluation of the project will be made. Study groups continue their work according to their working plan.

The partner organisations will offer a course on a freely chosen subject in an ICT supported environment. The students and the providers of e-learning possibilities will be evaluated with a common assessment sheet "Learning and Instruction through the Web and other I.T. surroundings". The gained results will be evaluated together and results adapted to improve e-learning in the partner institutions. During the first year the the most useful results were: 1) learning to know about the supply of e-learning programmes, e-learning platforms and materials in each partner institute 2) the learning process in doing the assessment questionnaires together 3) the learning process in planning together the lay-out and appearance of the project's web-site 4) the new information received, especially from the Czech Republic During the second year the project will analyse the information of the assessment questionnaires collected by the partners. A joint report will be published in the final seminar which is to be held in Finland in May 2004.

The main activities will aim to develop teaching units and modules for different learning levels and mixed ability classes. Their contents will contain regional and local culture, usage and habits, relevant places and main products in order to improve the learners´ knowledge of the territory and to encourage the learners in the European countries involved in the project to know other cultures and other people. The planned modules will be recorded on a CD-rom and be available on a website. The project could conclude with the exchange of learners´groups. The learners will receive a detailed certification of their skills in the second language. During the first year the teachers have created a questionnaire for adult language students about their wishes and expectations concerning the project. The teachers have exchanged experiences on teaching methods and practices and adopted some new methods. The web-site of the project has been opened. The students have written postcards to the students in other partner countries. During the second year some joint material will be created. The project will disseminate the results and a publication in all the partner countries.

The main focus is to make people aware of the possibilities of museums as creative learning environments for life-long learning. The activities encompass lectures, field trips, courses, drama, workshops and artistic processes. The activities are planned out and executed in such a way that they enable all people over 16 years of age a possibility to join, regardless of sex, health, ethnic origin or social status. Special programmes are planned for immigrants, senior citizens and the visually impaired. The outcomes of some of these processes will be presented to the media and general public in an exhibition. Another aim of the project is to function as a means of further education for the museum educators, exhibition designers and technicians. Through intensive, long-term communication and co-operation with the colleagues in other partner museums and the adult learners themselves the museums will gain valuable information about how to make exhibitions and other activities in the museums more educational, interactive and meaningful also with respect to the adult learners.

The main aim is to share expertise among the learning partners concerning communication with people from different cultural backgrounds (immigrants, ethnic minorities, disadvantaged people for socio-economic reasons) and teaching these people. We will develop a catalogue of the skills needed by teachers/trainers/communicators working in a multicultural environment. Best practices and successful approaches already experienced by partner organisations will be analysed and presented. The activities will also include short-term pilot courses to promote the learning of lesser taught languages (Dutch, Swedish and Finnish) and disseminate information about other countries and cultures. The project pays particular attention to the dissemination of the catalogue within the participating organisations and more widely through the creation of local networks and web-based technology.

Senior citizens are encouraged to exchange their cultural heritage. Seniors from 6 countries work in study groups where they write down stories about their own cultural heritage, "local histories" by using the computers. All the stories will be set up to "The Story Board" - a web page of the project. On the web page there will be chat rooms for each topic. The stories are multilingual and they include photos, videos, voicemail etc. The partner institutions with the expertise in languages translate the stories. Seniors have a net friend from another country and they write net letters also to their grandchildren. Each partner country works with International Senior´s magazine where all the stories and products are presented. The magazine is a tool for dissemination of project results. The seniors and their trainers meet once a year in an international seminar.

Examining and identifying best practice in management of community learning and how the various types of access to provision impacts numbers of learners being engaged. Developing innovative methodologies and tools for engaging learners. Using learners to try out new tools and methodologies when they are developed. Demonstrating that marginalized groups can be skilled for employability The work plan and the calendar were seriously affected by the withdrawal from the project by the coordinator in 2002. The partners managed to find a new partner and coordinator and applied for a third year so that they could finish the project properly. During the first and second year the main issue was to make study visits, participate in lessons and meet people. During the third year the learners will be more active in their own countries, between the exchange visits. They will make interviews, collect statistical data and other kinds of information.

The project focuses on how “excluded” groups, including adults with learning disabilities, economically marginalised women, refugees, asylum seekers and young people can find a voice in these debates around active citizenship. The project will use life history techniques to explore the concept of citizenship, its commonalities and differences, in three European countries with long histories of political democracy and similar traditions of liberal adult education. Underlying the process is a recognition that citizenship has both an individual and a collective dimension, and that diversity needs to be recognised and celebrated, alongside a recognition of what we share in common. The project will allow the participants to share their expertise and knowledge of working with these excluded groups, develop new techniques in using biographical approaches and the subsequent material generated, and applying this new knowledge to their educational provision and practice. In turn, this will help excluded groups to find a voice in local and national debates about citizenship in their own countries and in Europe.

The partners will share experiences of mentoring and other means of motivating and supporting learners, as well as starting to address the excluding factors within social institutions. The project will involve: • the production of a “What is mentoring?” leaflet which will be piloted and evaluated locally; • an arts workshop for mentor/mentee pairs from partner countries through which the support needs of excluded adults will be voiced; • the development of recommendations for the training of mentor trainers. The project will emphasise the existence of two sets of learners who have training needs and who stand to benefit from mentoring: (1) the volunteer mentors, and (2) the learners that they support (the “mentees”).

The chosen themes are: food, Christmas customs, dance and music, Easter customs, family life/health issues, geography/tourism/holiday destinations, traditional costumes, religion/intercultural/mutual understanding, architecture, arts and crafts. The arts and crafts module will produce collaborative friendship quilts created by adult learners and children, called “Hands Across Europe”. It is hoped that through participation in these activities adult learners will improve their reading, writing and numeracy skills and improve their confidence and self-esteem. Parents should acquire increased confidence and competence in supporting their children’s learning. At the end of the project the individual booklets on each theme will be collated into a “Learning Europe” book which can be used as a resource for adults, language students and children. It is anticipated that participating countries will continue this work by extending the scope of use with other disadvantaged learners.

In many cases, these people have been ‘turned off’ learning by previous unsatisfactory experiences and are thus apprehensive (if not antagonistic) to re-engaging with an educational organisation. However, many of these people are attracted to the operations of social enterprises or co-operatives which are not seen as representing ‘establishment’ organisations. In particular, this project will identify good practice where social enterprise organisations and learning providers work together to reach the target groups and, by developing flexible and non-threatening programmes, encourage them to re-engage with learning and address basic skill needs. The involvement of learners throughout this project, including transnational visits is therefore essential.

The adult learners (childminders and parents) will develop a range of ‘Smiley Faces European Learning Bags’ and supporting training materials for use in the education of children. Each ‘Learning Bag’ will contain resources (toys, games, stories, songs, etc) created, recorded and handcrafted by the learners themselves. The ‘Learning Bags’, which will also reflect the cultures of the countries involved, will be exchanged with partners and piloted with groups of children across the partnership. The bags will also incorporate a project logo to reflect the differing cultures and will explore the use of a ‘Travelling Teddy’ to accompany the bags across the countries. The project will also deliver a basic child development course to provide learners with the knowledge and skills necessary for the development of educational resources. It will also devise and deliver training in child observation techniques as well as training in the use of the learning bags.

These writings will include poetry, prose and short stories, which have been developed from themes decided upon by the young people and will reflect the ideas and opinions that are pertinent to their lives. The project will start with a creative writing workshop for trainers and learners. Learners will then continue to produce work in creative writing classes at their home institution. Learners will collaborate via the internet with their counterparts in partner countries over the content and design of the book. Through participating in this activity, learners will develop their basic skills in literacy and broaden their knowledge and experience of literature. Using creative writing as a medium to express feelings will build their self-confidence and help them to overcome barriers to learning and social inclusion. The partner organisations will benefit from the use of innovative methods to develop basic skills in literacy and from the development of creative writing as a curriculum subject.

It will utilise an informal approach, allowing learners to increase their capacity to play a full and active role in society. This will be achieved through educational guidance tools for addressing the specific needs of migrant learners. Learners will be given the opportunity to express their cultural, social and economic experiences in relation to citizenship through essays, journals and workshops. Support and guidance systems will be put into place for developing self-confidence, motivation and educational awareness. The project’s outcomes will include case studies, publications, an exhibition and partnership exchange visits allowing for wider dissemination across local, national and transnational communities.

An initial partner meeting will be held involving learners and practitioners from each of the participating countries. Participants will discuss common problems and share good practices and plan the arts activities to be carried out in their own countries. Each partner will then go back and set up specific arts projects in their communities. These projects will have a common theme of local culture/traditions. A website will be established as a means of communicating between partner groups. Partners will discuss the progress of their projects at a second transnational meeting and plan how best to showcase the outcomes (e.g. a CD of musical performances, a video of drama performances, a virtual gallery of artwork). Each of the local projects will then record/video their performances or photograph their artwork. At a third meeting, partners will share final outcomes, contribute to the final report of the project and plan future events.

Professionals will undertake short exchange visits to work with colleagues in partner countries and participate in and observe their ways of working with families/carers. Conferences/meetings will be held in each of the partner countries where the parents/carers of hearing impaired children and students will be invited to discuss counselling/support issues. In addition, each partner will conduct a survey of parents/carers in order to garner their views on the counselling, guidance and support facilities delivered to them. At the end of the project a report will be produced comparing and contrasting guidance and counselling methodologies and practices in the participating countries with recommendations for enhancing them.

It has a particular focus on disadvantaged older learners. All the partners work with older learners in different ways and settings, e.g. through community development work, intergenerational learning and traditional adult education. The project aims to identify best practice in each country and make the models available for transference to the other partner countries. For 2003, the project is committed to producing a book of best practice, drawn from each of the participating countries.

The aim of the project is to investigate new ways of developing rural districts and how the role of adult education can be an active contributor to rural development. Key topics will be rural adult education programmes, diversification, agriculture and small farmers, food production, financial and economic literacy and the use of new technology. A ‘learner’ is defined as anyone actively involved in rural life from farmers to community activists. All rural districts have the common issues of isolation, lack of transport, migration of young people, ageing population, and decline in primary industry (agriculture). Learners and trainers will attend two seminars/workshops per year, at which they will explore new ways of developing learning opportunities for adults living in rural districts. Video diaries of the workshops will be kept and disseminated to the partners. The results will also be recorded in a manual of training material/resources and a CD-ROM. Learners will be involved in the planning, implementation and evaluation of the project and “planning groups” of Learners will be established in each partner country. In the first year of the project, participants benefited from direct contact with others learning and working in adult education in a rural environment and shared information on how they deal with mutual issues. The partners prepared the first draft of the READ manual and set up the READ website. In the second year, the manual and the website will be developed further and the CD-ROM will be produced. The project also aims to develop and seek accreditation for a rural workers’ (READ) certificate course.

It aims to widen consciousness and share experience through the European dimension of the project. Connections will be made between different types of Learners who have been labelled through disability, gender, ethnicity etc, and through innovative approaches, individuals will be encouraged to overcome barriers to participation. All activities will have an emphasis on tackling exclusion. Learners will meet face to face at the project meetings and will also take part in a video conference. The end products, (e.g. creative writing, performance art, music etc) will be recorded and shared amongst the partners and beyond. In the first year of the project, learners and facilitators shared experiences through a variety of cultural activities (drama, music, art, photography, etc.) within the theme of The Story of My Life’s Journey. They did this via the project website, a series of video conferences, a project newsletter and the exchange of hand-made Christmas greetings cards.

This will be achieved through collaborative work and shared learning, raising awareness of the socio-political factors affecting the economic situation of EU peripheral nations and looking at the theme of sustainable development. The first phase of the project will be the implementation of a baseline study designed to identify levels of awareness of socio-political issues linked to Europe and the wider world, which will lead to the development of intercultural learning materials. Learners will be actively involved in the project throughout, taking part in planning and evaluation, looking at different pedagogical approaches and undertaking study visits to partner countries. Results of the project will be disseminated via a dedicated web site, which will also be used as a communication tool between partners throughout the life of the project. The first year of the project has seen the development and exchange of training materials between the partner countries and the establishment of a project website. The project has facilitated a process of exchange and learning for the educators. Learner groups have declared an interest in more opportunities to exchange and learn from partners. This will be addressed in year two when there will be a series of learner visits to partner countries. There will also be four resources and training workshops with educators and learner groups to further develop delivery materials for the project.

Staff involved in the teaching of these subjects will explore themes together, share ideas on methods and techniques and develop lessons that can be delivered to adult learners using a cross-curricular approach. Central to this study will be the work carried out with the prisoners themselves to produce three collaborative magazines, in both paper format and on audio-tape for the visually impaired. Prisoners will share information about themselves, prison life, their local area, their country, customs, traditions and beliefs. The magazines will be also be developed as a teaching/learning resource of real life experiences that can be used for learners by all partners to improve communication skills (mother tongue/foreign languages) and European awareness. At the end of the project all partners will have a rich library of real life experiences. A project website will be created so that the results of the project can be widely disseminated.

Its overall aim is to involve learners in activities that will improve their literacy skills and increase their awareness of health, lifestyle and employment issues. The partnership will also explore current educational opportunities and systems of prison education in the partner countries and will investigate processes of basic skills/basic literacy education as well as the potential for distance learning. In the first year of the project each of the partners prepared training and learning material which were then shared and developed through a series of partner meetings and an ongoing process of trials and evaluation. Prison learners from the partner countries were involved in this process via questionnaires and focus groups. The development and evaluation process will continue into the second year with the aim of producing a definitive trainer manual and a set of learning materials at the end of the project.

The project will work towards a common definition of basic skills and community involvement. Staff and learners from the participating institutions will evaluate teaching and learning styles in the light of community needs. Formal and informal community education in a range of contexts will be considered along with exchange of current good practice in engaging those who suffer from social exclusion. Particular target groups in the context of this project are refugees and asylum seekers and the project will explore how these groups can be best involved in the community and learn the skills they need to support this involvement. The project will engage teachers and trainers delivering basic skills, social workers, community and outreach workers, health workers, local authorities, members of excluded groups and members of mainstream communities. Learners will be directly involved in project activities and study visits to partner countries. They will make videos and exhibitions of their learning opportunities. In the first year of the project there have been a series of visits to evaluate basic skills and community work at each of the participating institutions. These visits will continue in the second year culminating in a final conference to disseminate materials and models of good practice.

The project will give learners a very active role in developing the training model. In the first year of the project, the partners exchanged existing training plans/models and began a process of consultation and evaluation aimed at identifying models of best practice and developing these further. In the second year of the project, a training seminar will be held in Lithuania and work will continue on devising a model of training for the delivery of drugs education programmes.

This project will investigate how learners outside of formal learning institutions can be empowered through shared experiences in an intercultural context. The learners involved are all from socially excluded groups. The issue of how this type of learning can act as a pathway to further education and training will also be addressed. The partners will examine what is common in their approaches to learning through the arts, and what is specific to each partner’s national, regional and local setting. Central to the project is the idea that the learners can be teachers and the teachers can be learners. There will be workshops and weekly arts sessions in each of the partner organisations. During this period the learners will prepare pieces that will be performed at an exhibition in Poland in July 2003. Learners and staff from all the partners will attend. The second year will incorporate learners’ reflections on the project. A further exhibition will be staged and a CD ‘Orchestra of the Souls’ is planned. The project results will be disseminated via a project website and displays.

The project focuses primarily on cultural and ethnic minorities, asylum seekers and refugees. The project partners will explore ways to tackle integration using formal and informal teaching of language and communication. Through a series of workshops with learners in each of the participating organisations, it will explore cultural differences and ways of interacting more effectively. The main aim is to empower individuals to influence their own situation via better access to language, basic skills and cultural awareness. In the first year of the project, the partners pooled their existing resources for promoting cultural awareness and challenging xenophobia and began the process of identifying the most effective materials and developing these further. This process will continue into the second year, supported by a series of workshops on learners’ experience of racism and xenophobia. The project will end with a seminar on intercultural learning to disseminate the materials that have been developed.

The project investigates methodologies used with a wide range of disadvantaged groups rather than focusing on the needs of one particular group. The partners conduct an audit of innovative practice in each member institution. During the first year of the project, staff from the partner institutions met in order to discuss the findings of the audits and experience innovative practices at first hand. For example, at the first meeting in Denmark participants experienced the ‘suggestopedial’ method of teaching traumatised refugees. In the second year of the project, there were further visits to partner institutions and learners were also brought in through a series of learner exchanges. These visits and learner exchanges will continue into the third year and the audit evidence will be collated into a final report detailing the good practice identified. The project will end with an evaluation and dissemination meeting and the publication of the report.

The project assists and empowers parents to become active learners by engaging them in an informal learning environment and helping them to identify and value their skills. These are then presented to a wider audience of other parents and professionals via a website and submissions in professional journals. Parents are partners in the delivery and development of the project, which encompasses staff and learner exchanges, internet and e-mail communication, and jointly developed project materials. The project places disability issues in a transnational context, examining the way in which the delivery of services varies between the participating countries. The cultural diversity that gives rise to these differences in provision is a matter of great interest to many parents seeking alternative systems and best practice in support of their children. The parents will end up educating the professionals in the best way to meet their service needs. Activities in the second year of the project included: the production and distribution of a bulletin of parents’ learning experiences and testimonies; a planning meeting in Edinburgh attended by 50 parents representing parent groups from each of the partner countries; and the development of a strategy for influencing policy on school education in partner countries. In the final year of the project, parent learners will continue to share knowledge and skills through learner exchanges. Strategies will be devised in each of the partner countries for the parent learners to put their experience into practice and become the educators of professionals and other parents of disabled children Total Duration: 3 years Area(s) covered Project Objectives Target Group(s) Funding year: 3 Active citizenship Intercultural issues Education for parents Learning about European countries/the European Union Strategy for stimulating adult learners’ demand for learning Experimentation with new pedagogical approaches Parents of children with a disability COMPOSITION OF THE PARTNERSHIP Coordinating organisation Name of the organisation: Children in Scotland Name of the contact person: Eddie Follan Address: Princes House, 5 Shandwick Place, Edinburgh EH2 4RG e-mail [email protected] tel: + 44 131 228 8484 fax: + 44 131 228 8585 Organisation/Project website: www.childreninscotland.org.uk Partners Name of the organisation (Country code) Associazione Italiana Persone Down, Sezione di Pisa-Livorno (IT) Associazione Italiana Persone Down, Sezione di Brindisi (IT) Associazione “Intergrazione” (IT) Committee for Inclusive Education of Disabled People (IT) Groupement pour l’Insertion des Personnes Handicapées Physiques (G.I.H.P) Midi-Pyrénées (FR) 202 UNITED KINGDOM Project Reference: 03-GBR01-S2G01-00207-3 Lumina The partnership, through its shared activity, aims to ‘shed light on’ and address the challenges faced by people excluded or at risk of exclusion from mainstream opportunities. It seeks to redress prejudice, xenophobia, racism and intolerance by promoting intercultural education as a tool for individual and community development. It aims to work with teachers, learners, minority community members and community development workers to share expertise. The project will establish and promote models of good practice, including the development of teaching and training materials, in working with adults who are disadvantaged for socio-economic, geographical, cultural, racial or other reasons, including low levels of basic education. Highlights of the third and final year of the project will include a workshop on “engaging men in learning” and a summer word camp with literacy and language activities. The ongoing process of sharing, evaluating and developing teaching materials and models of good practice will culminate in the production of an integrated tool kit for delivering basic skills education to adults and the publication of a good practice guide. A final conference will allow for the dissemination of the LUMINA project using video, visual displays, presentations and celebrations of the variety of cultural identities represented.

Computer facilities are provided in remote rural areas or in areas of industrial decline. They are set up in places where they would not usually be expected, such as in village shops or local bars. The computers are linked via the internet to interesting sites and via a web camera to a terminal in another participating country. Users are able to observe other Europeans going about their daily routine and are encouraged to establish links. Specialist equipment is available to disabled learners. Questionnaires and interviews in the disadvantaged communities are used to assess the impact of the new technologies. Activities also include learner exchanges, a joint newsletter and the establishment and maintenance of a shared website. For the final year of the project, the focus will be on improving certain aspects, e.g. better collection and analysis of questionnaire data for presentation in a summary report, the incorporation of a better web-cam experience, and more effective use of voice messaging and chat-room formats. There are also plans to produce a “Good Practice Guide” which will cover areas such as project delivery and evaluation.

Main topics: how to use ICT as a tool in the education provided to the offenders, how to manage cooperation between teaching staff and other services in prison to enhance the quality of the adult education given to the offenders, to improve the knowledge of different cultures and languages in Europe, how to co- ordinate the inside prison education with follow-up education after release. Through working sessions in conferences established by the partners, and project work in the institutions between the conferences, we will work out models and educational methods for better adult education adapted to the offenders and their special needs. A common Home Page on the Internet has been made during the first project year. On this page, the project partners will present local projects and experiences for each other (and to other interested providers of adapted, adult education).

At the same time the access to this type of courses is not in reality open to everyone because there is a lack of knowledge of the use of ICT as a tool in general and ICT as a tool in e-learning in particular. In cities and urban areas the courses on offer give the inhabitants a great choice and in addition transportation in these areas does not pose any big problems. The partners in the applied project are concerned with the distance between the rights to continuing and lifelong education and the actual possibilities to exercise these rights. We plan to have an exchange of experiences we have had in our respective countries. We have our strong as well as weak points. But we have seen that we can convey to each other the good practices we have developed, some on the organisation and following- up of the participants, some on the content of the courses and the materials that have been used. Based on these initial exchanges an “initiation-to-ICT” course was produced during the first year.

How can the health, welfare and school departments cooperate in finding a positive way of improvement? It is estimated that more than 30% of the inmates in prison are suffering from ADHD -Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. This may create big problems among the inmates and in the prison environment. The overriding aim of the project is to find out in what way the health, welfare and school departments can cooperate in finding ways of achieving improvement for this group, and by that improving their quality of life. This aim will be met by working on widening and improving general knowledge about the ADHD problem, exchanging experiences as well as teaching methodology, and carrying out research on the topic.

Research findings indicate that an important prerequisite for combating exclusion and gaining a higher employment rate for ageing workers lies in their employability and therefore their opportunitites for education and continuous training. In the development of lifelong learning, increased efforts are required in order to translate this concept into meaningful and concrete action. Easy access to active LLL opportunities are of particular importance. In this context it is important to assess the existing educational structures, practices and services and their compatibility with the articulated needs of employers and older workers themselves. There is also a need to encourage local stakeholders to organise more local experiments in the field of LLL. Local project-based experimentation can be a fruitful strategy for the develpment of new models of good practice. Based on action research methodology, the NEWROLE project will map the problem situation in selected local areas in the partner countries, and contribute to the creation of a common gorund for joint action between the local stakeholders. In its first year, the project will focus on the existing services' compatibility with the learners' needs and how to improve the opportunities for LLL. For the second year, the plan is to organise and implement local experiments with new methods for LLL for ageing workers.

The specific topics and aims of the partnership are research and analyses of the background situation, target groups and best practices in each partner country; exchange of experience and knowledge of distance learning methods in the field of IT between the partners; elaboration of a distance learning module in IT; testing the module in each partner organisation; standardisation of the special terminology; evaluation and updating of the DL module; dissemination of the project results, thus enhancing the European dimension in education; widening the partners’ cultural outlook and increasing the level of knowledge about European traditions, culture and spirit. The project will pass through three phases: a phase of preparation, including research activities, language preparation of the staff and elaboration of a terminology study dictionary in the IT field in the partners’ languages. The active phase of the project includes mobility activities/exchange of staff and elaboration of a DL module in IT. During that phase experience, ideas, and knowledge will be exchanged between the partners concerning the selected subject as a testing of the ready DL module. The third phase is the final phase during which the “end products” will be translated and disseminated. The “end products” are an Instruction manual, terminology study dictionary and DL module in IT. During that phase the final evaluation of the project will be done. The Learning Partnership consists of three partner organisations from Bulgaria, Austria and Poland. One of the best advantages of this partnership is that the project theme gives great opportunities for equal access to education of learners and organisations regardless of their sex, age, physical and health condition, social and geographical position, thus combating isolation and discrimination.

Within this context, the project is to focus especially on building useful relationships at trans-national level for cooperation and to implement better national experience in order to design the training modules. The target groups are the corresponding local competent authorities, local enterprises, prospective private sector applicants for public procurement activities, privatisation and concessions. The first phase of the project will be to compare and confront the different national experiences in training in the appropriate area in the participating countries. The next two phases will deal with designing modules and a manual for educators which will provide an opportunity to improve the capacity of the respective target groups to a degree allowing the best possible choice of one of the following options: - whether to liberate the municipalities from their property through privatization or to keep ownership and use it in the best possible way - whether to organise the property and the services that remain under municipal ownership within a specialised municipal enterprise or to make them available to the private sector - whether to grant long-term concessions - whether to choose the way of public procurement contracts - consider the options of granting municipal licences to private contractors in selected areas Duration: 2 years Area(s) covered Project Objectives Target Group(s) Funding year: first Active citizenship Learning about European countries, the European Union Environment Other, namely: Civil society, protection of the environment, EU awareness, foreign languages, property and service management by the municipalities Strategy for stimulating/promoting adult learners’ demand for learning Methods for providing credit for knowledge or competence acquired outside formal education Local community groups Women Others: local municipality authorities, NGOs COMPOSITION OF THE PARTNERSHIP Coordinating institution Name of the organisation: ECOLEX 2001 Name of the contact person: Anna Gotzeva Address: 1000 Sofia, 10, Slaveykov sq. e-mail: [email protected] tel: +359 (0)2 9310576 fax: +359 (0)2 9310576 Partners (Name of the organisation and country code) Institut de Cooperation avec l”Europe Orientale (FR) Bulgarian Business Centre LTD – London (UK) Asociatia Alternative Pedagogice (RO) 215 BALGARIJA Project reference: 03-BGR01-S2G01-00044-1 Introducing the European Union Model of Curriculum Vitae in the Recruitment Practice of the Hotel Sector This project aims at aligning one of the common European initiatives in the field of human resources management, while at the same time eliminating the barriers to enhanced mobility of the workforce in the light of European integration. The first objective involves the training of employees to process and job seekers to use the EU model of CV. The second objective strongly represents Grundtvig’s priority of adult education for learners disadvantaged for social or economic reasons (with emphasis on unemployment in the hotel sector). In today’s dynamic and liberal society, a unified form of presenting a worker’s knowledge and skills to an employer, being part of different national or international sectors, is of great significance to both employers and job seekers as it assists the former in making recruitment choices, and helps the latter in competing on the labour market. Efforts of the trans-national partnership will intensively contribute to the spreading of social cohesion and encourage people to plan their career and development strategies. In addition, it is expected to open a new area for cooperation among employers in the hotel sector regarding personnel recruitment policy, as well as HR development strategies in a framework of lifelong learning.

All partners of this project have experienced various obstacles in lifelong learning as they all have been providing classes, courses and training for groups of various ages, professions, gender and literacy levels. Each partner has identified its best approach to tackle the day-by-day issues. They have implemented methods and techniques, established relations with local authorities, municipalities and educational institutions to support their goals and visions. Acquired experience can be inspiring for foreign schools, institutions and training centres and it shall constitute an experimental approach sourced by the best practices of all involved partners. All the project activities will provide a deeper understanding of needs in adult education in various countries. In the second year of the project all partners decided to continue in the cooperation especially in the area of trainers/teachers exchanges and to focus on e-learning as a tool for integration of rural areas and distant learners in AE.

Because of the lower number of participating institutions we have agreed on small changes in the project plan. We have included in our project activities the local research in respective countries. The aim of this research is to find out: • Possibilities for young job seekers to develop their skills with special focus on soft skills • Who are counsellors working with young job seekers – qualification, skills • To specify the skills needed for counselling young job seekers There are young job seekers all over Europe, without any working experience and with specific learning and development needs. This group is potentially disadvantaged not only because they have no experience but also limited communication skills and a lack of self-confidence. They have already finished their formal education but still need development as they are not well enough prepared for working life. The aim of the project is to prepare a teacher training using best practices from all participating countries. This training will focus on: • Communication skills • Presentation skills – how to present oneself in potential countries of employment • Self development (identification of strengths and weaknesses) and action plan preparation.

Every project partner has positive experiences in organising ALW-activities. However, we observe that there are areas to improve: the ALW should be directed at all adults, but in reality there are significant difficulties in reaching disadvantaged groups. This project concentrates on the exchange of successful strategies, methodologies and practices to reach these groups. The main target groups of the project are local organisations which provide LLL-opportunities, policymakers and national coordinating agencies of the ALW in the different countries. They will be organised in national second circles where they will discuss the outcomes from the international seminars and look at the transferability of experiences of other partners. The main activities of the project are exchange of experiences through international seminars and national second circle activities.

The seminar entitled "Women and the labour market – combating unemployment & discrimination" will gather women from European NGO’s, local groups, trade unions and government-related projects, working on issues of women unemployment, empowerment, learning, requalification and work-related discrimination. The main aim of the seminar is to create a network, which will help unemployed women from disadvantaged/remote regions, who have difficult/no access to learning and requalification and require self-confidence, new skills and knowledge in order to be able to re-enter the labour market. W&W NET will be established in the seminar and the planning group will be created to coordinate the follow-up project. The first phase of the project will focus on adult learning, exchange of know-how and information as well as mutual visits of staff and learners from partner organisations. All the partner organisations have an experience with projects on learning and empowerment as well as work with unemployed women; each of them in a slightly different field.

The main objectives are: • to promote European citizenship and intercultural exchanges between adult learners at local, national and European levels; • to induce critical thinking about our own country, and tolerance towards other European ones; • to establish a permanent trans-national European network of electronic learning facilities in which cultural, historical, economical and geographical information can be exchanged by adult learners to promote their knowledge of foreign societies and cultures. • to offer learning opportunities to socially excluded groups; • to improve spoken and written language use in local target community groups by authentic target language practice and encourage their personal development. The strategy involves the procedures of language practice, investigation and analysis of the impact of learning on the adult students, assistance to the students, implemented by modern ICT means: e-mails, chats, discussion boards, videoconference, also visits and exchanges, magazines and newspapers, leaflets.

The objective of the creation of such a learning partnership is to avoid the problems that commonly affect adult students who, after finishing attending courses, feel removed and alone. The same solution will also be adapted in the second year to create virtual learning communities between students who have attended similar courses in different regions and thus keep at bay problems like loneliness, depression and lack of self confidence. Mentors and facilitators online will be there to support the user, answer his/her questions and help the interaction within a larger group of people, possibly coming from several countries, to talk to one another about their problems and thus help themselves overcome them.
