Project number: 2017-1-RO01-KA204-037242

Project description:

The main goal of the DECENT project is to increase the effectiveness of the fight against the functional illiteracy among low qualified adults who are at risk of social exclusion in Romania, Poland, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Spain and Italy.

The main target group of DECENT project are adults at risk of social exclusion (long-term unemployed, threatened by poverty, poorly educated). All project activities will be geared to solve problems and improve the situation of this group. Furthermore, the project will create tools for institutions which support and take care for people with functional illiteracy, such as:

  • adult education centers,
  • schools for adults,
  • third age universities,
  • associations witch support the fight against functional illiteracy,
  • local and regional self-government education departments as well as adult educators.

Even though project will be implemented for the target group in just six countries, its main outcome is addressed to adults from across the European Union.

Environmental Learning Illustrated

Implementation period: 01.10.2017 – 30.09.2019
Assistance program: ERASMUS+
Project number: 2017-1-UK01-KA204-036748

Project description:

The project ELI is linked with the European Union’s commitment “Healthy and Sustainable Environment for Present and Future Generations” (European Commission paper, 2014) and an international commitment to protecting natural habitats and biodiversity, but also tackling other environmental problems, including the reduction in carbon emission as reflected in the so-called 2015 Paris Agreement, with the need to develop comprehensive education programmes that address the mentioned needs.

Partnership will create an e-learning programme on climate change and other environmental problems with illustrations and graphic designs to explain key concepts and activities of the e-learning programme, so to increase the learning success of the participants, as well as reach out to more people who do not necessarily have a scientific background in the explained topics. By adding a graphic novel to the programme, partners target to interest a larger audience, apart from those formally taking the course. The novel will be available for free download on the project platform. We hope that a lighter read on environmental issues will encourage more people to become interested in the project. It will include recommended actions on environmental topics and advice what influence humans have on the environment.
