Implementation period: 01.10.2020 – 30.09.2022
Assistance program: ERASMUS+
Project number: 2020-1-ES01-KA204-081853


Project description:

BOOST, is an Erasmus+ project, focusing on building the global competence of women from migrant and culturally diverse backgrounds, whilst working with adult educators to support their continuous professional development as coaches and mediators.

The targets-groups will be first engaged in online training sessions for building global competences. BOOST will also equip the professionals with coaching tools to better support women in advancing their social inclusion and career paths, by using the global competence to cope with challenges they face on a daily basis.

To achieve its objectives, BOOST will develop:

  1. A multilingual MOOC offering a flexible microlearning path on global competences for both target groups, women and professionals.
  2. A bespoke programme for professionals supporting coaching practices regarding careers delivered to vulnerable women. The programme will include a coaching scheme, a step-by-step guidance and recommendations, as well as a toolkit to support the coaching cycles. This coaching programme can be used across countries, regardless of age, background or ethnicity.

BOOST Priorities:

  • Supporting the setting up and access to upskilling pathways
  • Extending and developing the competences of educators and other personnel who support adult learners
  • Social inclusion
  • Adult education
