EcoDigi - Transition Mode for Adults: Ecological and inclUsive Digital Education

The overall objective of this project is to enable the digital transformation of the adult education sector to be environmentally sustainable and inclusive, by supporting adult educators and institutions to assess, build and change their practices, where necessary.

Specific objectives:

O1: Increase the environmental awareness and resilience of adult educators in the partner countries and more widely by providing them with effective tools and materials to support sustainability in their practices;

O2: Promote the inclusion and improve the learning outcomes of learners with disabilities and difficulties by enabling educators to provide tailored learning opportunities, adapted to their needs;

O3: Create a pool of skilled trainers and resources that can support the building of capacity of adult educators;

O4: Raise awareness about the importance of environmental sustainability and social inclusion in adult education practices, and the ways everyone can contribute to these large goals through taking small steps;

O5: Facilitate links and exchange of good practices between the partner countries, participating organisations and stakeholders in relation to the themes addressed by the project.

The project has 3 direct target groups:

1) Educators and adult education providers, who are responsible for teaching and training adults in general. The project will support them in applying innovative approaches to achieving environmental sustainability and becoming more accessible.

2) Educators, professionals and organisations who focus specifically on adult learners with disabilities and special needs, with this group comprising primarily of teachers and trainers, but also including other specialists, for example occupational therapists, counsellors and others. They will be supported to apply effective methods developed through the project to involve learners in digital education, which they can use to meet the specific needs of the learners they are working with.

3) Experts from the partner organisations who will be trained as master trainers and will support the first two target groups in their work.

The project also has 3 indirect target groups. The first one comprises of adult learners in general who will benefit from the improved skills and competences of the educators from the first direct target group. The second one is the subset of adult learners with disabilities and special needs, who will benefit from the project’s focus on the second direct target group.
