Hunt For Europe Newsletter 1 released

On 9 June 2021, a webinar presentation of the “Hunt for Europe” project was held. The webinar involved our stakeholders, i.e. 40 teachers of the partner countries who will be involved in the test with their students next year. It’s a mix between learning the language and learning aspects of everyday life, customs, and traditions of a country, with a view to total integration, the most important objective of the project.

Read more about the current state of development in our first newsletter.

The project is funded by the “ERASMUS+” programme. Our international partners are: EnAIP Piemonte (Italy), LudusXR (Denmark), Wisamar (Germany), Centre 4 Education (Spain), Vardakeios School of Hermoupolis (Greece), MTU (Ireland).

Invitition to a Webinar about Europhobia

We would like to invite you to our MEGA course – An informal and playful way to challenge Europhobia in youth work. The MEGA course is part of the EU project MEGA that has been implemented since February 2020 by six partners from six countries. The course has been developed by the project team over the last months and will now be piloted across Europe. For more information on the project please visit our website: mega.bupnet.eu

The course addresses youth workers, trainers, facilitators and other relevant stakeholders that offer services and training for young people.

The aim of the course is to enable the participants to implement an innovative approach at empowering young people to critically analyse Europhobic distortions of the European Union and to learn to act as “European ambassadors”, i.e. to convincingly spread realistic images of the EU among their peers. Youth workers will learn to identify and unmask Europhobic myths, apply quiz-based learning and produce learning quizzes with and for young people.

We start on 15 June at 17 CET with an introductory webinar. Here you will have the opportunity to get to know the project team and the other participants. We would also like to introduce you to the course concept and launch the e-learning phase. The course will then take place virtually – unfortunately not in Palermo due to Corona. Course days are June 5th, 8th, and 13th, 2021, from 10.00 to 12.30 and 14.00 to 16.30 CET.

If you are interested to join the webinar or have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at bridgestoeurope@dieberater.com!

Our Priority Area for New Erasmus+ Projects: Unfolding human potentials

At the core of all activities of die Berater is our dedication to develop people’s competences by providing fitting learning opportunities. In the broadest sense. Preparing for the labour market. Upskilling professional competence. Learning how to best contribute to society. This learning never stops and should be based on clear insight what competences I have and how I can improve them.

For more information on competence-based learning have a look at our profile.

Let’s start the new EU funding period with exciting projects on competence development and assessment together!

Our Priority Area for New Erasmus+ Projects: Safeguarding health, integrity and wellbeing

Education has an important role to play in informing and encouraging people about habits and behaviour conducive to mental and physical health at work and in life in general. die Berater® advocates empowerment and resilience against any manifestation of discrimination, hate and violence in the digital and in the real world.

Please have a look at our profile to learn more about our activities on this important area. And let’s develop new Erasmus+ proposals on health, integrity and wellbeing.

Our Priority Area for New Erasmus+ Projects: Opening up opportunities for young people

The key to our future is the younger generation. The better young people are educated, trained and prepared for the labour market and active participation in society, the better they will be capable to finding creative solutions to the challenges ahead. This preparation for the future does not only take in schools, colleges and universities. Learning takes also place at work, in youth centres, sports clubs or in volunteering activities. And learning, especially with young people, should contain elements of fun, making use of innovative open and digital learning formats. die Berater® offers young people a wide range of different learning opportunities.

Please have a look at our profile to learn more about these activities. And let’s develop innovative Erasmus+ projects related to formal and informal learning provisions for young people for the upcoming first application deadline together!

First Call of the New Erasmus+ Programme Imminent – Let’s Get Started!

We are still waiting for the first call for proposals of the new Erasmus+ programme 2021-2027 being published. It is expected for the end of this month. The period for project writing will be short, so a lot of projects proposals have already started to be prepared.

With many of you we have successfully cooperated in previous programme periods and do hope to continue our cooperation in the new Erasmus+ programme. And with many other recipients of our newsletter we would like to start working together.

We are keen on discussing with you new project proposals, especially around our thematic priorities (cf. also our profile):

• Innovative responses to digital transformation
• Learning and working for sustainability
• Taking everybody on board
• Caring for the older generations
• Opening up opportunities for young people
• Unfolding human potentials
• Safeguarding health, integrity and wellbeing

For more information on our activities in these areas please have a look at our profile.

And in the next few weeks, we will send you more details about our seven priorities.

We will also bring into any Erasmus project our wide experience in strategic project development, transnational project management, communication and dissemination, as well as our MediaCompetence department’s know how with regard to online learning, content creation or gamification.

All topics mentioned above play important roles in Erasmus. And of course also in other funding programmes we will also be active in: Horizon Europe, the Interreg programmes, AMF, ESF, Rights and Values, Creative Europe…
