Concrete Objectives
- Increasing the number of trainers who will provide vocational training to refugees,
- Preparing digital educational content that refugees can easily access from the internet,
- To teach refugees simple sewing techniques. (Hat, Beret, Sweater etc.)
- To teach refugees how to make simple household appliances that can use in their shelters and simple souvenirs to sell.
- Increase in the number of refugees participating in vocational digital training,
- To increase the number of refugees who find employment as a result of digital education,
- Preparation of our intellectual outputs that will facilitate the life of Ukrainian refugees In conclusion:
- Thanks to our intellectual output, there will be an increase in the digit of educational content on social media and internet pages that will facilitate the lives of Ukrainian refugees and even enable them to earn money.
- Developing communication technologies will be used in their education to lift refugees out of poverty.
- Educators who develop skills in digital education will carry out new training activities that can solve the employment problems of refugees and prevent refugees from working illegally for cheap wages.
- Educators who develop their knowledge in digital education will contribute to digital transformation in adult education.
- Digital content prepared for refugees will contribute to the digitalization process of Europe.
- Refugees fleeing their countries due to war will adapt to the society in the countries they come from.
- Ukrainian refugees are one of the problems that closely concern Europe. Because the first choice of refugees is European territory. Ukrainian refugees who took refuge in Europe will adapt to the rules of society thanks to our intellectual output.
Thus, our project will support the solution to the refugee problem in Europe. Our priority in the project is to prepare Asynchronous digital educational content that will facilitate the lives of Ukrainian refugees. Educational content prepared by educators will be designed to meet the daily needs of refugees. In addition, we expect the Ukrainian refugees to bring their creativity to the fore and earn money from the contents prepared.
The Priority Of Our Project
Educators will ensure the adoption of adult education by refugees by preparing digital content that refugees can easily access from the internet. Thus, refugees will understand the benefits and social impact of adult education.
Educators will help war-affected refugees to cling to life again with digital training. Educators will develop Asynchronous content preparation skills for digital education, and educators will prepare different content for Ukrainian refugees. Our intellectual output will be with English narration and Ukrainian subtitles (or vice versa). Since it will be easy to access digital media, Ukrainian refugees living in countries not included in our project will benefit from our intellectual output.
Our Target Group
A- Trainers Providing Adult Education:
Our target group is trainers involved in adult education in our partners’ organisations.
The characteristics we are looking for in the trainers we choose as our target group:
-These trainers should be educators with professional knowledge to increase the handicraft skills of adults in their
institutions.
-These trainers should be specialised in handicraft education.
-Educators interested in the education of Ukrainian refugees will be our primary target group.
-Trainers should have advanced skills in the use of technological tools.
• Trainers should have high presentation techniques for digital training and knowledge of digital content preparation.
-The target group of our project is educators who are experts on issues such as the psychological conditions experienced by refugees.
B- Ukrainian Refugees:
• Adults who had to leave their country due to war, conflict and similar reasons,
-Refugees who want to get a job,
• Refugees who want to integrate into their country of asylum,
• Refugees forced to stay in shelters in countries of refuge,
C- The target group of our project are the managers who carry out the project from the practice of the project to the finalisation of the project, and educators working in the institutions of our partners, with whom we carry out project work package studies, are among our target group.
D- In another target group, some indirect participants are not directly involved in the project. Our partners will visit the official institutions, educational institutions and youth associations in their countries for the dissemination works of our project and include these institutions in our project. People who follow our project’s website and social media accounts will also be the indirect target audience of our project.
-In some of our partners’ countries, the target group of our project includes staff working on the social rights of refugees and language education.
• We will work to promote our project on the Epale platform. We will open a discussion blog on raising the living standards of refugees on the Epale platform. We want to encourage institutions registered with the Epale Platform for different studies on refugees. Therefore, these institutions are the indirect target groups of our project.
• Adult education educators, NGOs and associations involved in the education and social welfare of refugees, who will be involved in the multiplier events of our intellectual output, are also our target group.
