Services for people with disabilities have traditionally been provided in segregated institutions. They are moving from institutional care to community living requires community based services to Supports Model for people with disabilities, offering people with disabilities choice over where and with whom they live and providing the necessary supports for community participation and independently living in the community.This reorientation changes the roles of service users and providers. Rather than being service ‘recipients’, people become active participants in planning and obtaining the supports they feel will best meet their needs and goals.These approaches become in the Empowerment of disabled persons, which is the process of enabling people to increase control over their lives, to gain control over the factors and decisions that shape their lives, to increase their resources and qualities and to build capacities to gain access, partners, networks, a voice, in order to gain control.for proper implementation of the Support Model it is needed to:• Increase awareness about the usefulness and potential of its exploitation• Increase cooperation among every stakeholder involved in the Support Network, improving the effectiveness of the actions carried by professionals and families.• To give harmonized methodologies and tools, based on successful best practices • To develop practical cases, which enforce the credibility of the Support Model, the skills of professionals an families and Self-esteem of persons with disabilities.IDIPOWER project proposes the development of an INNOVATIVE collaborative and participatory methodology focused in overcoming the previously mentioned competence limiting factors through the next main bases;• Learning and joint training of families, professionals and people with disabilities.• Consideration of the person as the focus of the intervention, and who defines its interests, accompanied by the professionals who design the itinerary of services.• As a result of the implementation of the methodology, Personal Projects will be developed: based on the interests, needs, abilities and environment of the individual, in order to facilitate their personal promotion and community participation.The consortium includes:6 entities working in the field of Support Models for disabled persons, including a big collective of professionals working with disabled persons, persons with disabilities and their families and used to manage awareness and training addressed to professionals, persons with disabilities and their families.1 Technological Centre specialized in Collaborative Learning methodologies and in the development and application of ICT technologies to facilitate its implementation. This Technological Centre is also used to work with disabled persons according to Quality of Life Criteria. Through the execution of this Project the next results will be obtained;• Determination of key success factors and best practices for the implementation of Support Model for disabled persons including the promotion of their autonomy and the collaboration of the whole support community around them, especially families and professionals of disability.• Development of 1 Collaborative Training Methodology and 1 Set of Tools addressed to disabled persons, familiars and professionals for facilitating the implementation of the Support Model, based on the empowerment of disabled persons and the participation and collaboration of all the support stakeholders.• Development of 1 e-Collaborative Platform, including awareness and training contents, tools and social applications for boosting the implementation of the collaborative methodology• Implantation of the Collaborative Training Methodology through direct training actions divided into Workshops addressed to 400 disabled persons, familiars and professionals.• Creation of 6 Support Units in the participant entities related to disability devoted to the application of the Training Methodology after the completion of the project, with the objective of training about 1.600 disabled persons, familiars and professionals in the period 2017-2020• Awareness activities at regional and European level addressed to the global stakeholders related to the disability in order to create a multiplier effect

When we talk about People with Intellectual Disabilities, community’s still tend to have a more traditionalist and protective approach, but new Models, including Quality of Life, start the discussion in how we must direct to the abilities and full potential of the IDP’s and not to focus on their disabilities. With this in mind, the IDPLiving project has is background on the embodiment of The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities that states they have the right to Living independently and being included in the community; with equal choices and opportunities to participate in their community. The OBJECTIVES of the IDPLiving are: -To raise awareness and motivate the whole collective about the abilities of IDP’s; -Boost the evolution of IDP’s to Accommodation/Supporting housing and Full Independence,enhancing their quality of life; -Transfer guidelines about how to develop basic daily routines in the main contexts of life; -Transfer guidelines about how to exploit ICT tools that can be used as assistive technology; -Provide the trainees with real life experiences to apply the trained competences during and after the training course. One of the main APPROACHES that was innovative and that made a big impact on the whole project was the process of co-creation and co-production, involving actively IDP's and responding to the main objective of the self-advocate movement “nothing for us, without us” and this meant actively to listen and ask the contributions of IDP's, to build a training program, that is driven by their priorities and needs.The PROFILE OF THE DIRECT PARTICIPANTS in the development of the project where: - People with Intellectual Disabilities (a total of 58); - Families of IDP's (a total of 31 relatives)- Professionals (a total of 48).The project achieve all the RESULTS establish, as follows:METHODOLOGICAL GUIDE (IO1) was developed, with the direct participation of IDP's, families and professionals, through the realization of 2 Co-Created Sessions, with the main objective of determining the key contents of the training program, methodologies and ICT Tools needed for improving the competences of IDP's and their supports for increasing their Independent Living in the Community. They identified and choose the following modules to be developed in the Training Materials: Quality of Life; Shared Living; House Management; Going Out; Healthy Lifestyle; Safe and Healthy sexuality. TRAINING MATERIALS (IO2) where created to improve the critical competences of IDP's, relatives and professionals for facilitating the improvement of IDP's competences to deal and face daily life activities and therefore to enhance their Independent Living opportunities.The materials are diverse and can be face to face sessions, online sessions, and outdoor activities, with the resource of templates, games, APPS, videos and others. DESIGN OF EXPERIMENTAL TRAINING ACTIVITIES (IO3), in a form of a Manual for Trainers for enhancing the practical and experiential training of IDP's, relatives and professionals, using the training materials within real environments.E-TRAINING PLATFORM (IO4) was created, that allows free access of the training materials and a field to create courses, with the different modules developed and that can be adapted to the different profiles of IDP's. This is an interactive space and tool to the participants and trainers and also can be a forum to share experiences between the different participants.The partners also assume the Creation of 5 IDPLIVING UNITS in order to ensure the sustainable exploitation of the project after the project lifetime. The partners assume this responsibility in the activities plan of organizations for 2020, to assure continuity of the project and to promote continuous innovation thought the implementation of new ideas for training materials and training experiences, keeping the E-Platform updated.The consortium developed a high range of DISSEMINATION ACTIONS addressed to the European collective related to IDP's and directly reach more than 5000 persons trough National and European events, Multiplier Events and then indirectly reach much more trough publications and social networks, because a flyer was created, as well a Facebook and you tube channel for the project, along a website.The RESULTS from TRAINING PROGRAM, confirmed that the quality indicators of the project where reach. Evaluation of global satisfaction was of 95% and Evaluation of acquisition of competences achieve a global value of 91%. The participants validate the real impact that the methodology developed of co-creation and co-production, through the DETAS and training materials, are very good tools to enhance and promote the participation of IDP's and highly promote their independent living in their contexts of life in their communities. Also we became aware that other targets in disability field are very interested in accessing the training program developed.

The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (PwD) (UNCRPD, 2006) promotes full and effective participation and inclusion in society (Art.19) recognizing the right of PwD to live in the community, with choices equal to others, and to full enjoy their full inclusion and participation in the community. It also promotes awareness of the capabilities and contributions of PwD (Art. 8).NOT-FOR-PROFIT SHARING ECONOMY (NFPSE), also known as “real or pure” SHARING ECONOMY, is based in reciprocal exchange systems with no monetary exchange involved (via time credits, community currency, shared services, etc…). One of the most established form of NFPSE is TIME BANKS (TB). Give one hour of service to another, and receive one time credit, when a network of members agrees in receiving credits for services that other members provide (www.timebanks.org/what-is-timebanking). TBs are relevant to policy-making in the area of PwD (Potential of TBs to support social inclusion. EU Comission): •Focusing in the capacities rather than disabilities of PwD, so, promoting the awareness of its capabilities and contributions •Increasing inclusion and participation in the community of PwD, through providing them with new social networks or improving the existing ones and encouraging them to understand the important roles they can play in those networks•Providing volunteer support CAPABILITY-TBis launched with the main objective of increasing the competences (attitudes, knowledge, skills) of PwD and their Supportsfor improving their Inclusion and Participation through Timebanking. Specific objectives:•Aware/motivate this collective on the use of TB•Promote the self-knowledge and discovery of capacities of PwD and its deployment•Increase participation of PwD in social networks structured around the TBs•Promote mutual support by promoting the exchange between people with different capacities•Promote the easy and cost-effective access of PwD to goods and services •Involving Supports in effective cooperation with PwD and even participating in TB•Develop general and specific digital skills related to TB Online PlatformsThrough the execution of this Project the next results will be obtained;•A “Co-Created MethodologicalGuide” (I.O.1) will be developed with the direct participation of Persons with Disabilities (PwD) and other End Users, with the main objective of discussing and agreeing with them on the definitive contents, approach of training methodologies and tools to be integrated in the Training Program.•A set of “Timebanking Training Activities” (I.O.2) will be designed, including Face-to-Face and Online Training Activities, for enhancing the experiential training of Persons with Disabilities (PwD) and their Supports (professionals, relatives, community members, etc…), in a way that the trainees will developed the targeted competences through the creation of a real Timebank and/or participation in other existing Timebanks. A Guidelines will be developed for supporting Trainers in the implementation of the “Timebanking Training Activities” as part of this output•A set of “Training Materials” (I.O.3) adapted to Persons with Disabilities (PwD) and their Supports onhow to increase inclusion and participation through Timebanking (TB) will be developed to be used along the implementation of the “Timebanking Training Activities” (I.O.2).•A“CAPABILITY-TB e-Training Tool” (I.O.4) will be developed for supporting the implementation of the Timebanking Training Activities” (I.O.2), including the option of creating an online Timebank where trainees will train themselves in the competences needed to participate and enhance their social inclusion•Implementation of 6 Multiplier Eventson how to increase inclusion and participation of PwD through Timebanking (TB) addressed to stakeholders that could multiply the impact of the project•Development of Dissemination Actions addressed to the European collective related to DisabilityVALIDATION PILOT ACTIONS will be implemented involving 100 Persons with Disabilities (PwD) and their Supports for validation of the project results (40 in Spain and 20 in Italy, Portugal and Greece) The Consortium includes 5 entities working in the field of supporting PwD (AMICA, COPAVA, CECD SINTRA, EDRA, CSS FORLI), 1 Research Institute specialized in Sharing Economy, including Timebanking, both in the area of research and application to specific collectives (FORBA) and 1 Non-for-Profit entity specialized in development of e-Training Platforms, ICT Literacyand Social Innovation with specific experience in promoting the use of Timebanks (IED).
