The project aimed to collect good practice examples through exchange with other European actors in the field of supporting disadvantaged trainees. These should make it possible to create a concept for a measure that enables disadvantaged young people in vocational training to use the benefits of an intercultural exchange for themselves and their own development. Special emphasis should be placed on the combined acquisition of basic vocational knowledge and soft skills. A guideline should be created that should enable anyone interested in vocational education and training to develop and implement their own European mobility for disadvantaged young people on the basis of our experiences. The guideline should be tested and evaluated in an implemented pupil mobility and the results should be published and made accessible to everyone who is interested. It was particularly important to us that the project could be transferred to other areas of education and that it could be multiplied, which is why a lot of emphasis was placed on dissemination.
INEU aims to support VET students in participating in European mobilities who, according to the European Commission's definition, have an increased need for support due to - cultural differences - financial problems - educational difficulties - social obstacles The focus of the blended long-term mobility INEU is on the English language, social skills and a simple technical topic as a vehicle for communication. All participating partners have a high proportion of pupils with support needs, as well as the need for international projects that also take the weaker students with them and enable them to benefit from the experiences of stays abroad and intercultural exchange. Experience in social support for VET students was available mainly from the schools in Spain and Germany. Italy supported the team with its many years of experience in (virtual) European work and the French participant brought extensive technical knowledge as well as the project idea of the weather station to the team.
