General description

The aim of this project is to develop a network of Higher Education and Civil Society (NGOs) Partners to engage citizens in debates and discussion groups around the future direction of the European project.  These groups will explore the common socio-political and economic views and experiences of European citizens, across a range of age groups and within the context of social and digital inclusion, using adult education, community development and experiential learning theory and practice. It will utilize academic and advocacy staff in various settings, both institutional and community,providing a structured educational encounter which will act as a base for exploring the shared European experience in terms of history, culture, values and ideals. The 6 partners from 5 countries involved will seek to engage 75-100 participants on each programs over a period of eighteen months in a number of events, courses (both accredited and non-accredited) and volunteering activities to a final total of approx. 450-550 people.  The project will seek to engage citizens through innovative and creative technologies including live recordings, podcasts, story mapping and on-line discussion platforms. FFE partner group will also seek to build on the learning from this project to create a sustainable digital network and open access journal focused on citizen engagement with European social policy and ESC rights.
