(https://gipal.fr/owncloud/index.php/s/XlK8yWav43Jkugd?path=%2F).The long-term benefits are to ; ensure that the notion of skills become a shared and common language in the field of the EDD-SI between the various actors (teachers, health workers) on one hand but also the other associative actors of the educational system ; build more effective trainings by connecting training activities and the aimed skills ; create cooperative work between trainers of the associative environment and teachers and/or trainers of the Educational system ; allow an evaluation with indicators and shared signs.Education for Global Citizenship gives keys to understanding environmental, economic, social and cultural interdependencies all over the world, and contributes to the education of citizens. It strengthens social cohesion and capacity to act of the people. Carried out in many European countries by motivated teachers, informal education organizations and local authorities, it was still fragmented, scattered and poorly organized. As a consequence it needed to be recognized as part of an interdisciplinary and systemic approach, the ACTECIM project provided that new and innovating approach. It has brought together partners from European territories to build a collaborative and transdisciplinary approach to establish and develop training for sustainable development and solidarity. It was aimed at improving the quality and the relevance of educational tools and structuring the acquisition of transversal skills. Our partnerships was inspired by the outputs of the “Des Alpes au Sahel” project and REDDSO which initiated exchanges between community and local actors in formal and non-formal education. Their goal was sustainable development and international solidarity. These last three years our new partnership has been enriched by the participation of a Romanian region, the Judet of Dolj (South-West Oltenia region) and 18 other partners in France, Romania and Italy. The partners were three local governments: Piedmont Region (Italy), Rhône Alpes (France), South-West Oltenia Regional development Agency Judet of Dolj (Romania), three universities: University of Craiova, Faculty of Education Turin, Lyon ESPE, three “Rectorats”: Lyon, Grenoble, Inspectorate Dolj, schools of the three “académie” but also international solidarity networks such as RESACOOP and COP associations.Our objectives were clear and easily measurable. We wanted to improve the quality of educational programs by developing an innovative approach and new teaching practices in order to develop the skills of young people in that field and the quality of public education policies as well. We also wanted to enrich the educational offer for teachers through the implementation co-develop training contents of Education for Sustainable Development and International Solidarity, especially through distance trainings aimed at educators. This project has also enabled the mobility of young people, and that of multipliers to promote the spirit of mobility and develop methods and training systems, to regionalize the issues the project has tackled especially with EGD-IS. The activities planned were the production of knowledge and know-hows, the definition of the EGC-IS impacts and its added value on the targeted audiences; integration of skills in the youth’s and the trainers’ curriculums, integrating international solidarity in education training for sustainable development; diversification of university training curriculums; to boost the practices of informal education, organize the methods and content of EGC-IS approaches. Dissemination of the productions: three national and international workshop have been organized in order to share approaches and knowledge of EGC-IS. Trainers, teachers, facilitators and students have been invited to these events to share and the impacts and outputs. The beneficiaries are now able, in the framework of an intercultural approach, to question the vision of their partners on common issues (water, environment, food, health, human rights, good governance ...). They have acquired citizens’ skills and habits to live together. Therefore transferable skills have been strengthened. Then teachers and trainers have been able develop a transversal approach to teaching. The professionals of formal and non-formal education have exchanged their practices and have become a real task force.

"Background: In Europe, thousands of orthopaedic and traumatology residents complete their training in hundreds of different organizations and institutions: the school’s heterogeneity, differences in language, culture and medical training, make the very varied and different orthopedic training in European countries and this has generated concerns about the standard of knowledge and professional competence of surgeons who have qualified in one country and move to practice in another. For this reason, at the International Summit of the FORTE (Federation of Orthopaedics Trainees in Europe) association held in Rolle Switzerland in February 2015, the representatives of 14 different European countries young orthopaedics and traumatology associations expressed the need to homogenize the orthopedic training at European level through specific intensive programmes, core-curriculum programmes, courses, appropriate teaching materials, and workshops. Objectives: The objectives of this project was therefore to contribute to the enhancement of the quality and outcomes of education and training in Orthopaedics and Traumatology in Europe by setting up a common EU framework of reference in terms of methodology and contents for the Orthopaedic and Traumatology training and designing a mobility scheme for trainees and young assistants in orthopaedics and traumatology to move between different EU institutions/departments for the purposes of placement, in order to enhance the quality and quantity of content coverage across the orthopaedic and traumatology spectrum.Number and profile of participating organizations:There were five worldwide known university partners such as: Hacettepe University (Turkey), Bologna University (Italy), Krems University (Austria), Lyon University (France) and Yıldırım Beyazıt University (Turkey) attended to the ESTRO project. In addition, FORTE (Federation of Orthopaedics Trainees in Europe) and EFORT (The European Federation of National Associations of Orthopaedics and Traumatology) were two international not-for-profit organizations supported the project. Description of undertaken main activities;Following the ESTRO Project ""Kick-off"" meeting in Turkey in September 2016, the project began with a global analysis of the current situation of orthopaedic training all across Europe, to provide a general view of the state-of-the-art in this field. In this phase we evaluated the state of the training programs of graduate schools at national and international level. Also, we identified the training needs (in terms of both contents and methodology) of both the trainees and of the directors of the Orthopaedics and Traumatology Specialisation Schools and other national training authorities which offer the existing training progammes. After collecting the data from this survey, the project proceed with phase 2. It consisted in the design of the European Intensive Course in Orthopaedics and Traumatology. This EU Intensive Course was delivered in a “blended” modality, partly in presence (Winter and Summer courses) and partly at distance vie e-learning tools. The Intensive Courses were articuled in a course lasting 5 days (including travel) that has covered full immersion each topic required by board exam. The courses started in June 2017and developed every 4/5 months in the various partner countries, according to the characteristics and specificities of the partner Universities. The course methodology were mainly articulated in a) interactive lectures, b) live surgery c) hands-on session. In addition, an e-learning platform was created. The Platform provided tools for learning and for comparing different experiences regarding different fields of orthopedic and traumatology surgery. By the mobility for placement gave trainees and young assistants the opportunity to take part in the clinical practice and to be involved in the different EU institutions and hospitals.Results:The project had an overall impact on European orthopaedic residents, participating organization and various universities co-operating into the realization of the project. Firstly, the project provided us with important information about the current situation of orthopaedics education in Europe. Secondly, it provided to the residents an adequate training Core-curriculum programme, knowledge and use of both digital and paper-based learning tools that will help them to pass the Board exam. Moreover, the resident, once qualified had proper training and standardized preparation not only at national but also international level. In this way, the project also led to an improvement in the quality of health care system in that national country.In addition, the project developed a European identity by exchanging transnational experiences, international meeting and training as well as developed links with other European universities. Longer-term benefits:Outputs of the project will be used as a guide to imrpove and standardize the education"

Blockchain is at the core of the EU strategy to advance digital transformation, benefitting society/businesses and stimulating sustainable growth. The European Blockchain Sector is well placed to acquire global leadership; still its competitiveness largely relies on the availability of competent/versatile workforce. Whereas the demand for blockchain skills is steadily increasing, employers are facing a shortfall of skilled professionals. The sector is challenged by talents shortage, global competitive pressures, limited connection between education & the market. The aim of CHAISE is to set forward an open, inclusive blockchain skills governance system, to address skills mismatches and deliver training, intelligence gathering & mobility solutions tailored to sectoral needs.LONG-TERM RESULTSCHAISE brings together leading multinational companies (e.g. FUJITSU, IOTA, INTRASOFT), key institutional players (e.g. INATBA), EU umbrella organisations (e.g. DIGITALEUROPE, DIGITAL SME), social partners (BERCHAIN), thematically focused E&T providers (e.g. UCBL, UT, UL, DHBW) and public authorities in education (e.g. YPEPTH, CPI, CIMEA) to deliver:- A European Blockchain Skills Strategy & Action Plan to address mismatches- A skills forecasting mechanism- EU-wide occupational requirements & the first-ever blockchain specific occupational profile- A 5 semester VET (qualification) programme (5-6 EQF level) in 11 EU languages - Transnational mobility schemes for Blockchain students & professionals- National Blockchain Skills Partnerships to roll out SSA results at Member States’ level DIRECT IMPACTCHAISE will benefit: - 40-50 EU/national sectoral representatives & social partners - 40-60 regulatory entities (e.g. Ministries of Education, National Qualifications Agencies, Standard Setting Organisations)- 1400-1600 businesses offering blockchain services, incl. 400-600 start-ups- 80-120 HE & 250-300 VET providers offering blockchain courses - 700-1200 learners, workers

"Context:The “Co-creating Welfare” project is motivated by a broadly political acknowledged need for re-organisation within the welfare sector in order to obtain a more sustainability and cost effectiveness. Local authorities are currently struggling with budget cut-downs in the welfare sector, mainly due to consequenses of the hardly ended worldwide financial crisis. As a response to the need for re-organisation, co-creation has started to become an acknowledged concept to create a more sustainable set-up and organisation of the welfare sector. Introducing co-creation as a new method to develop and implement welfare solutions, will challenge old structures and all stakeholders must redefine themselves in this new collaboration concept. The traditional linear planning will be dropped in order to give more room for common identification of challenges and possible solutions through brainstorming, creativity and impulsive ideas. This calls for a new approach of preparing and training the professional practitioners working within health and social care, welfare, education and youth. In order to prepare and manage local co-creation processes, professional practitioners will need to learn how to become multidisciplinary process facilitators instead of “just” being a civil servant doing “caseworking” based on clear guidelines. Objective:The objective of the project is to develop, test and propose efficient ways of implementation of a common European set of training materials, which will assist professional practitioners on local level around Europe, to qualify themselves to carry out co-creation processes on local level, which can push forward the needed re-organisation and effectiveness of the public welfare sector. Partnership:The consortium consists of 5 partners from 4 countries; University College Lillebælt and Southdenmark European Office from Denmark, Lyon University from France, Minho University from Portugal, Coventry University from UK. Together, the partners represent a substantial pool of knowledge within co-creation pedagogies, development of training/educational courses, practical work with NGOs, citizens and volunteers and practical and process oriented collaboration and coaching of local authorities and professionals in the public sector within welfare, health and education. A pool of knowledge, which will ensure a successful and qualitative implementation of the Co-creating Welfare project.Main activities undertaken in the projectThe Co-creating Welfare project is a action research project , containing 4 main project phases; preparation, development, testing & trial out and conceptualisation.The activities in the ""Co-creating Welfare"" project are the following; a) development of a need analysis by involving 4 pilot sites in each participating country, b) development of a co-cration training course, which teaches the participation to kick start and carry through a co-cration process from initiation to evaluation and communication of the process and its results, c) testing of the training course material within the 4 pilot sites, wheree training is provided to professional practitioners working closely to the citizens, d) evaluating and gathering experiences among partners and participants in the training course in order to determine how to fine tune and ensure highest possible relevance for the target group and opportunities for upscaling and futher use beyond the project partnership and period. Results and impact:The project has produced all the intellectual outputs that was intended; IO1) Needs analysis and mapping, IO2) Co-creating Training Course Material, IO3) Co-creation Concept and IO4) Sustainability Document."
