Project Consortium
Our project focuses on three target groups
One of them is women who are between 20-34 years old neither education, employment and training (NEET). The reason why we choose this age and gender category is; field studies have shown that NEETs are generally female and gender gap varies in European Countries. This gap is largely explained by gender roles and the work load of women as a result of family responsibilities. Our project aims to reach 250 people in NEET in 4 countries. (Turkey – 100, Macedonia – 50, France – 50, Slovenia – 50)
Secondly, adult educators/trainers who are actively working with adult learnes at local and international level. 20 Adult Educators will be reached to improve the methodological and thematical capacities to run local trainings with disadvantaged groups.
Thirdly, other CSOs representatives, trainers, youth workers, public sector representatives, academicians are going to be reached to increase the private-public dialogue among various stakeholders. 270 stakeholders are going to be reach within the implementation of local and international dissemination activities.
