There are large persistent gender gaps between women and men in Europe. Mainstreaming gender equality in education and training policy remains crucial in countries where equal access to education is taken as a given, which is the case in the majority of EU Member States. Challenging gender prejudices and stereotypes throughout the education cycle can reduce gender imbalances in other spheres of life. Therefore, it is essential that gender based stereotypes are deconstructed and challenged in all the areas of education and training.

The aim of we men project is to address the above identified needs and challenges improving teaching methods in emotional intelligence and gender equality training for adult educators through digital solutions.

To achieve these goals, the project will carry out the following intellectual activities and outputs:
– Design, test and implement innovative approaches and teaching methods in GET by using training in EI as a vehicle to engage, both male and female, adult educators and adult learners in training programmes addressing gender equality.
– ECVET Educational Program on EI and GET (IO1), focus on personal context and transformative approach.
– Online Open B-Learning Platform (IO2) with high-quality digital tools to upskill adult educators on EI and GET.
– Methodological Framework for the implementation of Adult Education training programmes in EI and GET (IO3).
