"In recent years martial arts has become more open to the general public. Also disadvantaged people and people with disabilities are now also involved in the martial arts (MA) trainings. This new situation however identified that the teachers and trainers are unprepared to respond to the specific needs of (disadvantaged) students (with disabilities) who want to join MA classes. MAINCLUSION project was designed to equip sport teachers and trainers with the necessary knowledge and skills to teach martial arts within the evolving system of inclusive education and inclusive sports.Sport in general can be a very powerful tool for education and inclusion when working with young people because it can be very motivating and engaging. In Bulgaria as well as in other Balkan countries and Turkey, people with disabilities and those from other disadvantaged groups have limited access to the mainstream education, employment and community life from a young age. This social isolation deprives them of opportunities to develop relationships with others —opportunities essential to their social development and important determinants of health and well-being. The martial arts as concrete sport activity are well suited to helping disadvantaged young people acquire social skills they may be lacking. It teaches them how to communicate effectively as well as the significance of teamwork and cooperation, goal-setting, self-discipline, respect for others, and the importance of rules.The MAINCLUSION project had as main objective to train sports teachers in mainstream schools including those from remote/rural areas to introduce Martial Arts to socially disadvantaged youth, regardless of age, race, gender or ability. The project introduced a range of innovative techniques to stimulate and facilitate the uptake of inclusive martial arts sport trainings, using a mobile and online training platform.The main outputs delivered by MAINCLUSION project are: IO1 Case studies IO2 MAINCLUSION curriculum and ""Train the trainers"" handbook IO3 (Online/Mobile) course/training material IO4 Online peer support and training portal platform IO5 Set of interactive training videos IO6 Mobile training app with individual learning pathThese IOs were developed as a result of a cooperation among project partners and were actively promoted over the project to a large number of stakeholders – more than 50 000 in Bulgaria, Belgium, Greece and Turkey as well as on EU level.Starting December 2018 all outcomes were tested by physical activity teachers and sport trainers in all partners countries and the results from pilot testing explicitly confirmed that the training modules, videos and other interactive materials are useful and support the inclusion of people with disabilities in martial art classes. For more information see the country pilot reports uploaded onto Dropbox Within the project's 3 joint staff training events were organised in Malatya – Turkey, Sofia - Bulgaria, and Athens Greece. The workshops within the visits were led by sports school teachers, martial art trainers including those with disabilities as well as representatives of sport NGOs oriented to young people with disabilities. The project has been realised by 7 organisations from 4 countries (Bulgaria, Belgium, Greece and Turkey) and includes:- P1 Marie Curie Association – MCA as Non-governmental organisation providing trainings to youth - BG- P2 Yamato Sport Club as Martial Art Sport Club - BG- P3 “Paisii Hilendarski” as Secondary public school - BG- P4 European WingTsun Organisation as Martial Art Association - BG- P6 PHOENIXKM BVBA as Inclusion oriented SME - BE- P7 PENTHESILEIA Inclusion oriented NGO - EL- P8 INONU UNIVERSITY Higher education institution on sport teaching - TRTo promote and mainstream the 6 IOs, partners implemented 3 Multiplier Events in Belgium (Ypres), Greece (Athens) and Bulgaria (Sofia). They were attended by more than 220 stakeholders who expressed interest to use the MAINCLUSION results in their daily work. Additionally partners from “Paisii Hilendarski“ school and EWTO implemented more than 30 workshops where inclusive martial arts techniques were demonstrated to students with and without disabilities. Some of these workshops were recorded (video) and were used as internal training materials for physical activity teachers working in the public schools or MA clubs. These workshops were an unanticipated benefit both for students and teachers as they demonstrated the power of martial arts as an effective tool towards inclusion."

"Equality between women and men is one of the European Union's founding values. It goes back to 1957 when the principle of equal pay for equal work became part of the Treaty of Rome. The European Union's achievements in fostering equality between women and men have helped to change the lives of many European citizens for the better. However, looking closely to the EU statistics, we still see significant differences between male and female unemployment. In addition to gender differences unemployment, a new term has been introduced: that of people being ""inactive"", i.e. neither employed nor unemployed and sitting at home. Moreover; employment has always been a problem for disabled people. Disabled people face a lot of unusual obstacles and barriers in getting a job or building their own business. Under these conditions it is important that to provide physically disabled people with the same level individual choices opportunities and control in their daily lives as non-disabled people for contemporary societies.Based on this phenomena, the concrete aim of this project is “to train inactive women as e-mentors and consequently support micro-entrepreneurship of women with physical disabilities by means of e-mentoring, so that they can work from their home”.These inactive women have probably worked before and know working life, most of them were successful entrepreneurs and would like to offer their knowledge but on home based basis since they cannot leave home due to several reasons. Knowing the fact that the ""home based working"" is one of the best working models for people with physical disabilities in general, it was also mentioned that almost half of non working persons with physical disabilities need some form of assistance to work throughout the EU.For this purpose and realising the philosophy, ID-Women idea brings together many different professionalism together for reaching to project aim. Wold of work, company, AVT, University, NGOs and Research&Development organisations came together for the implementation of this project. Some partners have been invited from mentioned former projects and some of them have not been participated above ones but similar other projects:POINT [TR], coordinator who is professional in ICT and project development field, also promoted above subject projects has born all management and technical infrastructure development; apart from being the previous VOCA and IT&E projects' coordinator, COOP [SK], experienced VET institution and in AVT; supported the project from pedagogical dimension; PENTHESILEIA [EL], is a Women NGO and growing steadily in Greek social environment and was created in order to offer services in women and other vulnerable groups that experience social racism of any type.

IFI [ES], is a reputable AVT and VET organisation also very experienced in EU projects. TAKIDD [TR], is a women NGO concentrating in women development and employability also having former EU project experiences. ITeE-PIB [PL], large research center supported ID-Women for developing its new innovative tools. As they are extremely experienced in EU project development and execution, project utilized their non-stereotype approaches in developing its own tools to reach to project aims.This partnership has been formed to develop e-learning platform with enhanced e-learning material inserted. To develop the model to improve the employability of inactive women and women with physical disabilities, which will also be a model for other similar activity fields than e-mentoring, in next years. This created ID-Women model will also improve the output quality in the sector by means of increasing the opportunities of supply and demand meeting and resulting increase in competition.This approach has been designed and implemented in parallel to Europe 2020 main strategy, which has main strategy to become a smart, sustainable and inclusive economy to achieve high levels of employment, productivity and social cohesion.
