European Dialogue for Active Citizenship EDAcate is a project that follows a cross-sectoral approach interpreted in order to collect, review and publish new and innovative approaches in the training on Active citizenship as al tear down borders between the education sectors and to facilitate a more open, innovative training and teaching. As we are convinced that participation is one of the core skills in the nowadays digital society which means to be in the position to gather information, reflect them and articulate opinion. Participation inherent the ability to conceptualize information and put them into different context. From the perspective of employability, the knowledge on how to participate includes management and leadership skills but as well openness for new ideas and concepts. Transferring participation into education means to educate self-aware citizens and gear their capacities to be Active Citizens, whom are open to new ideas, cultures and concepts and are willing to form and influence their society. Therefore it will be beneficially to create curricula, which have a European perspective on active citizenship and participation. Still each country inside the EU has different approaches, traditions and educational systems. Further on trainings and workshops exist but never been brought together at the European Level. The project seeks to create an evaluation grid for identifying best practice in citizenship building and collect those practices in a method handbook. This handbook will act as a tool-box for trainers, teacher and other facilitators in order to create innovative and tested instructions all over Europe and across all educational sectors. The project was organized in a series of multinational meetings at every partner organization. At every meeting the partners presented good practice examples of participative methods or used methods in defining the active citizens in addtion to projects/good practices in the field of non formal and formal education. All methods were documented, collected and shared with the consortium. In order to identify the good practices, the partnership created an evaluation grid to identify good practices. The grid and the method handbook are open accessible and should be used by institutions from all education sectors in formal and non-formal learning. The project can be understood as a pre-assessment of the needs to create and test European curricula in active citizenship building through high level dialogue. The project targeted directly trainer and teacher in all educational sectors, and members of civil society organisations. During 7 project meetings we worked on 98 good practice examples, 14 input reports and 7 policy recommendations, published in a comprehensive project eBook. Through sharing good practices of participation and active citzenship, EDACate managed to extend the knowledge of the participants and the target groups on training participation and active citizenship, and improved the capacities of the participating organizations to professionalize and innovate their curricula through new methods.
