EU PROGRAMME: ERASMUS+ KA203 – Strategic Partnerships for higher education
YEAR: 2019
Science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) workforce is crucial to Europe’s innovative capacity and global competitiveness. Yet women are vastly underrepresented in STEM jobs and among STEM degree holders despite making up almost half of the E.U. workforce and half of the college-educated workforce. That leaves an untapped opportunity to expand STEM employment in Europe. Among STEM jobs, women’s representation has varied over time. In computer and math workforce (the largest of the four STEM components), women representation has dropped 3 percentage points since 2000. Engineers are the second largest STEM occupational group, but only about one out of every seven engineers is female. Men are much more likely than women to have a STEM job regardless of educational attainment. In this context, the principal objective of FeSTEM project is to promote an innovative method and pedagogy that will allow HE students to use traditional and computationally-rich media to create meaningful, shareable exhibits that will act as mentoring models for encouraging girls and women to remain active in STEM.

EU PROGRAMME: ERASMUS+ KA204 – Strategic Partnerships for adult education
YEAR: 2019
International reports like PISA or TALIS reveal the great social and education challenges within school systems nowadays. The dramatic dropout rate of students in compulsory secondary education and the unequal results of students (depending on their social and economic context) are just two issues tackled in this project. Reducing the dropout rate is also an objective for the European 2020 targets. In Spain, there is 14% school absenteeism; in Italy it is 18.7%. Other objectives included in the ET 2020: to foster social cohesion and equality in communities and improve quality and efficiency in education; to make use of innovative measures to combat demotivation and absenteeism. To achieve that 15% of the adult population will engage in lifelong learning programs (which accept participants from 25 to 64 years old). The target group will be immigrant adults who are parents of primary and secondary students. The Education 2030 document stresses the Education Council’s recommendation of improving the teaching-learning of foreign languages. As for new technologies, this project will include the creation of an e-learning platform for parents on various topics: the host country’s education system, psychological support for teenagers, language assistance for specific terms related to education and translations into Arabic, English and French.

The results of the analysis show that as many as 30 million Europeans feel lonely. NEED TO CONNECT project focuses on young mothers (18-30 years old) as one of the groups that are more exposed to revive loneliness. Mothers are the ones who mostly use maternity leave and stay at home after the birth of a child and are therefore more exposed to the possibility of feeling lonely and socially isolated. In the project, the project partners will prepare an analysis of the situation, within which we will research the situation of young mothers in all partner countries. Based on the results and findings, we will prepare a curriculum and learning programme, which will be based on activities related to art and will enable young mothers to empower and connect with other mothers in similar situations.

YEAR: December 2022 – November 2024
During crises (financial, health, security) the quality of life for many people changes and new social needs appear. In today’s interconnected world, one country’s societal problems can become ours. The latest, still ongoing crises due to COVID-19, has effected the whole world causing new (or enhancing existing)
social problems (unemployment, social isolation, health inequality,..) and we as society must be prepared for reacting to them. We need solutions that will meet our current social needs.
During the peaks of the COVID-19 pandemic, the health problems (of especially elderly) were the most important issue the countries had to deal with and now with the pandemic slowly calming down other issues are coming up front. Among them are the social, economic and educational issues young people (from age 18 – 29) are facing. From the view of health issue they were not affected by the pandemic in a great deal, but went through the same democratic and civic restrictions which might lead to even worse civic and democratic participation of young people on local/national/European level.
One of the priorities of the EU is to provide meaningful social, civic and political engagement opportunities for all young people. Young people prefer to support causes that are directly relevant to them. With this project we aim to foster an active participation of young people in the decision-making process, and thus
promote a stronger sense of citizenship and propose new social innovations to decision-makers in response to the current social needs of young people, which they can integrate into policy-making.
