Purpose:To develop skills in the use of strategies regarding inclusive practices, for adult specialists education, in order to ensure equal opportunities for women in vulnerable situations, through the exchange of best practices and the transfer of expertise in a European cooperation project. Pursued objectives 1. Improving methodological skills by 25% for trainers from 4 organizations on the education of women in vulnerable situations through the exchange of good practices, during the two-year period of the project. 2. Increasing the motivation of vulnerable women to participate in educational activities in an intergenerational program that it opens up opportunities for their social life. Through an exchange of experience between new generations it will contribute to the acquisition of new knowledge and skills for both young and older women. 3. Increasing with 40% awareness of the civil rights that young women in vulnerable situations have in society, promoting gender equality, through mentoring actions, during the two years of the project. They will develop positive thinking, the motivation to exceed their limits.
We applied for this project because the organizations in the 4 countries wanted to support women in vulnerable situations by developing basic skills, knowledge of rights and social inclusion, through non-formal education and intergenerational exchange, contributing to gender equality and creating more equitable communities, in which every woman has access to real opportunities for personal and professional development. We considered it important to increase self-confidence and correct information about their rights. At the same time, the project offered the opportunity to learn effective educational methods and participate in an international exchange of good practices, in order to increase the impact of activities in the community and promote inclusion. The project responded to the needs identified following consultations with the 4 partner organizations and an applied questionnaire, including interest in effective methods of education and training of adults, especially for vulnerable women at risk of poverty and discrimination, the need to diversify non-formal activities to increase the skills of young women and the need to internationalize education through the exchange of expertise.
