"The idea for this project derives from the joint observation among the partners of the role adult education can play for intersection of gender and cultural diversity and for the inclusion of disadvantaged groups to society and education.The main objectives of this project are:• to increase the knowledge about intersection in the partner countries and on EU level• to enforce gender and diversity equality and social inclusion through a community education approach in the field of intersection of gender and cultural diversity,• to support the integration and social inclusion of migrants and minorities in lifelong learning by training CEFs in the field of intersection• to enhance the quality and relevance of leaning offers in adult education, using digital tools and resources.• to develop research based recommendation for regional, national and EU level• to develop a transfer model for Equal Space for other fields of education, to promote the access and motivation for education of different target groups• to promote the importance of cross-sectoral and cross-country cooperation for the development of a curricula, training material and online tools for training CEFs in the field of intersectionTo achieve that, the project aims to develop a research based Community Education approach focusing intersection. Community education promotes learning and social development work with individuals and groups in their communities using a range of formal and informal methods. Our experience in community education have shown that community education processes need actors – community educator facilitator (CEF) , who initiate local or regional learning processes, which would anchor community education in the field of gender and cultural diversity (intersection) as a central task. Currently there is no curriculum or training program for CEFS in this field. There are community development courses, but education and learning are a by-product in them and there are concepts of outreach learning and embedded learning. Our approach is to train CEFs in the field of intersection (gender and cultural diversity) connected with strategies which change the structure of education systems.This project brings together 4 partners from different fields, 1 research organization, 1 education organization with the focusing diversity, 1 education organization for women and 1 women’s organization from 4 countries, Austria, Bulgaria, France, Portugal. All have practice in intersection and education.The fact that the partners involved come from different sectors and countries gives added value to this project, as they offer their own expertise, views and experiences and will be able to create a product that is relevant not only to each country specifically but to a wider European context.The methods that will be used in this project are diverse and aim to increase the quality and its outcomes, as well as to wider and successful dissemination of the project’s results. Such methods include extensive research, needs analysis, development and assessment of a curriculum for CEFs, non-formal face to face and virtual learning tools and methods, a transfer model, monitoring, evaluation and disseminations strategies.The Project will have 5 intellectual outputs:IO1 Study about the intersection of gender and cultural diversity (national and EU level) & recommendationsIO2 Development of a curriculum for Community Education Facilitators on gender from an intersectional and intercultural perspective.IO3 Toolkit for face to face training of Community Education Facilitators in the area of intersection of gender and cultural diversityIO4 Portal of online training for Community Education Facilitators in the field of intersection of gender and diversity - Equal SpaceIO5 Transfer model of the concept of ""Equal Space"""
