▶Objectives
WE DO! project aimed to: Enhance Transversal Skills: empower women aged 20 to 45 with non-formal methods to strengthen digital (Communication, Content Creation, Safety), entrepreneurial (Ideas and Opportunities, Resources, Into Action), and life skills (Personal, Social, Learning to Learn). Develop a Flexible Learning Model: provide a flexible learning environment that allows users to identify their educational needs and desires through guiding questions posed by a chatbot, adaptable to 24/7 access across various devices (PC, tablet, smartphone). Improve User Experience: make learning enjoyable and motivating by validating small learning units (micro-credentials) and awarding 'digital badges' to make learning visible and validated. Reach and Engage Women: specifically target women aged 20 to 45 who are on the periphery of the formal education system (initial and/or continuing) and the labor market. Additionally, the project sought to facilitate the digital transformation of the participating organizations' educational offerings and engage other entities in the social and educational sectors, showing interest in developing more content and experimenting with the learning model for different target groups, such as youth.

These activities included: Platform Design and Development: We created the WE DO! online platform (https://WE DO!project.eu/), which includes interactive tools and resources for skill development. The platform was designed to be accessible, user-friendly, and adaptable to different devices (PCs, tablets, and smartphones).
