Objectives: Enriching Adult and Senior Education
Currently, the “Seniors Perceive A Common Europe” project pursues two main objectives. The first is to equip adult education providers and trainers with resources to develop a common European identity, key competences, and sustainable thinking, focusing on the cultural heritage of senior citizens by utilising their real-life experiences and cultural heritage knowledge. The second objective is to empower seniors through non-formal learning opportunities and exchanges, enabling them to acquire more key
competences and new perspectives on European identity.
Implementation: Diverse Activities for Learning
The project involves collaboration from five partner organisations from Germany, Bulgaria, Spain, Sweden, and Italy. Activities include:
- Development of a teacher handbook and learning frameworks based on LifeComp.
- A blended learning Empowerment Course for seniors covering five thematic areas: nutrition, health, home management, self-determined consumer behaviour, and environmental behaviour.
- Creation of a Digital Exhibition and Digital Trails in Europe, based on the five thematic areas.
- Five European Exchanges for seniors to experience other cultures.
- Multiplier Events.
Results: Improvements and Educational Resources
Various outcomes from the SPACE project are expected, for both adult education and seniors, as well as the general public, including:
- A handbook on Life Skills with best practices, implementation ideas, and five learning frameworks, available in six languages.
- Curricula and concepts for Senior Empowerment Courses for the five thematic areas, in six languages.
- A digital platform on Life Skills with 100 exhibits, in six languages.Five thematic Digital Trails on Life Skills in Europe, in six languages.
- Five regional Digital Trails on Life Skills in Germany, Bulgaria, Spain, Sweden, and Italy.
