Trasformazione Ecologica Resiliente

The TRAnFORM.E.R. partnership decided to apply under this call in order to contribute to shape the “new European citizenship of the European Green Deal” in the actual critical, fundamental step of 2020-2030 decade to achieve the expected results of GHG emissions’ cut and the necessary greening of our economies and societies without leaving nobody behind. As the President of the European Commission, Ursula von den Leyen, said: “Regions, local communities, civil society, industry and schools. Together they will design and commit to a set of pledges to bring about a change in behaviour, from the individual to the largest multinational”. The strict timing obliges us to design focussed learning activities on climate changes addressed to tailor the informational, knowledge and competences gaps of the European adults, as they are the decision-makers. As the European Agenda for Adult Learning and other studies by the European Commission reveal (cfr. Education and Training 2020. Improving Policy and Provision for Adult Learning in Europe) it is key to increase adult learning provision involving more social partners and civil society in the making of it, as well as it is crucial to improve adult learning on the workplace.

-Better and more correctly informed and active European citizenship by raising awareness amongst non-expert adult audiences about European policies related to today's ecological challenges in the three partner countries and elsewhere in Europe; - Educate a non-expert adult public of operators of social networks (consortium, associations, forums, networks, platforms, etc.) of the partners; - Stimulate (empower) the approx. 800 social, educational, and outreach workers employed by the three partner entities, who operate daily in contact with the citizenry, to take on the role of "agents of resilient ecological transformation" and, cascading, hundreds more social workers from the partner networks and others reached online; - Contribute to widen the adult learning high-quality provision in climate change and related environmental and social inclusion topics tailored to be accessible for all adults, regardless of their cultural background.

Our project has implemented a comprehensive plan consisting in: - a) a comprehensive participatory transnational workplan to include 32 periodical at-the-distance decision-making meetings backed up with internal monitoring and evaluation, as well as 5 transnational face-to- face meetings with also spaces of involvement of participants with fewer opportunities (Roma people and impaired individuals); b) a research practical collection of 60 (interviewed) good practices of sustainable water management, biodiversity safeguard and inclusive and green cities; c) the design of 34 different learning activities in three modules tailored to meet several adult learning needs; d) the elaboration of a coherent whole of open-licensed 37 mini videos and other audio-visual materials; e) the final publishing of a European Guide for “Ecological Resilient Transformation” in four EU languages (Italian, French, Spanish and English). The dissemination and exploitation plan focused on public and socio-educational partners displaying measures and communication means, such as: eight workshops and events (webinars and presential),a dedicated Youtube channel as well as the project’s website whereby free download of materials is enabled.

Main outputs and outcomes: - 5 transnational meetings held; - 32 meetings at-a-distance; - 6 face-to-face dissemination events and 3 virtual ones; - ongoing monitoring and evaluation; - 60 good practices of sustainable, responsible management of the Resource Water, Biodiversity and Inclusive and Green Climate resilient Cities colelcted and reportd in a dedicated booksheets usable for training reasons; - 34 learning activities as part of a modular training path and curriculum developed; - 37 minivideos and others audiovisual resources created and made publicy available in the Youtube dedicated channel: https://www.youtube.com/@progetto_transformer - a project's website to freely download any project's results: https://erasmus-transformer.le1000e1notte.it/ - A valuable dissemination institutional article by INDIRE: https://www.indire.it/2025/01/24/nuovi-modelli-educativi-per-la-trasformazione-ecologica-oggi-a-roma-levento-conclusivo-del-progetto-transformer/#:~:text=Il%20progetto%20Transform.,per%20agire%2C%20evitando%20false%20informazioni. - At about 200 people participating in learning/toolkit testing seminars, some other 600 well informed; - 800 workers of the three partners and of their networks made aware of the Planet chanllenges and of European policies, ready to be empowered as "agents of ecological and social transformation. - Other thousands of social economy people and officials of local and regional institutions deeply informed about the project and on its results during the project's lifecycle.
