LLP Grundtvig Learning Partnership 2011-2013: We Share – Project coordinator Y.E.S.
2011-1-IT2-GRU06-22917-1
The partnership is composed by 16 partners coming from Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, France, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden and Turkey.
The project aims to investigate – over Europe – new increasing lifestyles of sharing connected to an emerging movement where the focus shifts from “me” to “us” (examples: bike-sharing, urban gardens, office sharing, sustainable mobility). In effect, in recent years, the world economic crisis is changing the world and one of the effect is the increasing awareness around sustainability , environmental problems and about the consumerism system. In the economy of consumerism you are identified by what you own: your car, your house, your mobile. People in last period has discovered that is better to look for lifestyles more sustainable – not only environmentally but also economically and personally sustainable. One of the best sustainable choice is SHARING. In the economy of sharing, that thanks to the web is in creation, you are identified by what you are able to share: who you are linked to (ex. Facebook friends), who you network with and which ideas, pictures (Flickr), videos (Youtube), links, comments (Twitter) you share.

LLP Grundtvig Learning Partnership 2010-2012: SUSTAINABLE EDUCATIONAL APPROACHES TO LANDSCAPE – Project coordinator Y.E.S.
2010-1-IT2-GRU06-13884-1
The European Landscape Convention specify that “each party undertakes to promote” different trainings and courses, in order to ensure public participation for: identifying the own landscapes; analyse their characteristics, forces and pressures which transform them; assess them taking into account the particular values assigned them by the population concerned. This project aims: – help local communities to sustainable develop, by teaching them how to assess their landscapes in order to valorise natural and cultural heritage; – help institutions to develop educational tools for further trainings about ELC (by using also non-formal tools). – share experiences in order to offer better training for people who can involve in ELC implementation (authorities, multiplicators etc.). This will help also people in disadvantaged area to better valorise their resources and prevent that seasonal people and “visitors” jeopardise the local nature and culture. The partners will collate their good practices obtaining general guidelines in introducing ELC issues (protected area, cultural and architectural heritage, Local Agenda 21, aestethical education, working with rural communities in non-formal ways) in the educational process, to be used outside the partnership. The findings and materials will be diseminated through relevant workshops, written and multimedia materials, virtual space (ITC).

2009-1-RO1-GRU06-02997-5
Mountain are sensitive area in environment (influencing the geographical lands around); in many countries they represent also a problem of “heritage” but a defavourised area too. Mountains ecosystems are influenced by inhabitants, seasonal people (workers) and “visitors”. Project aims: – help institutions to develop educational tools for people in mountains communities; find how to use mountain specificity as learning resource (raising people interest for education, using non-formal tools) – share experiences in order to offer further training for people who can influence mountain area (authorities, multiplicators – including tourism Clubs). This will help people in disadvantaged area to better use their resources, new technologies etc., preventing also seasonal people and “visitors” to jeopardise the specific mountain nature and culture. It will also explore new possibilities to educate people with difficulties in formal education system. The partners collated their good practices obtaining general guidelines in introducing mountain issues (protected area, Local Agenda 21, working with rural communities in non-formal ways) in the educational process, with a functional role outside partnership. The findings and materials will be diseminated through relevant workshops, written and multimedia materials and virtual space (ITC).

LLP Grundtvig Learning Partnership 2008-2010: MEDIALOGUES
2008-1-RO1-GRU06-00141-6
With an existing ‘digital generation’ in place or not, childhood today is now permeated, and in a series of respects even defined, by contemporary media – research shows again and again that children and youth spend more time with various media than they do on any other activity except from sleeping. While it is true that the current media-saturated environment obviously also has a consistent impact on adults, the advent of digital technologies generates in adults an acute sense of exclusion from youth’s digital culture. Since it is acknowledged that families play a key role in literacy learning, due to a range of diverse social and cultural practices, the Partnership addressed this divergence among literacies induced by ‘classic’ and digital cultural forms by: exploring various social and cultural practices in the family, as modified by the new cultural forms generated by digital technologies; and drawing out implications of findings by generating a collection of case studies and best practices for the use of trainers involved in inter-generational and family learning.
