The project proposal was designed to follow the identified needs at the organisational, national and regional levels.The World’s population is rapidly growing, and as a result, food demand is expected to increase by as much as 98% by 2050. World Economic Forum has recently underlined how much food systems are relevant to all 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Euromonitor International published a report there is one of the key findings is that a new “Fresh Food Economy” is emerging.Understanding modern trends the partners are willing to share their rich experience to contribute to empowering rural women and enhancing rural development.RWSFF targets social inclusion and enhances access for disadvantaged learners, such as rural women, small-scale farmers who are located in less-favoured areas, feeling social exclusion and limited market entry due to lack of entrepreneurial skills.THE AIMTo contribute to rural women’s empowerment by encouraging new trends “Fresh Food Economy” and agricultural entrepreneurship, as well as additional farm-related segments of the rural economy, contributing to generating income and employment, taking into account the adaptability of methods and technologies to meet local conditions in each partner's country.THE OBJECTIVESTo put in place a sustainable process of empowerment and self-initiative of rural women (involved in agriculture or the agriculture supply chain) which will continue to evolve after the project’s completion.To promote the consumption of local and quality food from small producers.DIRECT PARTICIPANTS40 rural women who face geographic and economic obstacles80 rural women who are involved in agriculture or the agriculture supply chain8 facilitators/educators belonging participating organisations220 persons in dissemination eventsThe estimated number of indirect users is approximately 4000.Duration of the project is 24 months and contains 3 stages.It includes 3 Transnational Meetings, 4 Multiplier Events and the short-term joint staff training even.Stage 1: November 2019 - July 2020The focus is on building the network, preparation of Online Platform and local work.- Preparatory and Preliminary research- A range of events with rural women (meetings, discussions) and raise awareness interest for participation- Startup the Network of Women from Rural Communities (NWRC) and formulation accompanying documents- Creation of the Platform Community Access to Fresh FoodsStage 2: August 2020 - April 2021The focus is on developing ToT, the incentive for greater involvement in NWRC and working on Online Platform, local work and promotion of local fresh food.- Publication of Guide Access to Fresh Foods- Production of structured RWSFF Training of Trainers Course with 4 modulesStage 3: May - October 2021- Implementation in practice RWSFF Training of Trainers Course through C1 for adult educators- Running a Pilot RWSFF Training engaging a group of 10 rural women in each partner countryAt all project time, activities also include:- Joint online work, an operation of each partner on a local level and cooperation to the achievement of the results- Enlargement and implementation NWRC by an attraction of stakeholders- Project Management/Coordination- Informing and communication- Capacity building and networking - Communication with stakeholders- Quality management- Dissemination and exploitationEXPECTED RESULTS1.

<< Objectives >>Food waste is one of the major global problems today. Based on data from Our World in Data, the European Union wastes 89.28 million tons of food per year. Portugal, for example, presents the value of 1.39 million tons. Italy reveals the figure of 8.78 million tons; Poland, 8.97; Spain, 7.7 and Romania, 2.27. In Letonia and Greece, although to a lesser extent, the waste is immense – 215.618 and 487.839 tonnes, respectively. On a global scale, according to the FAO, per year, “(…) 931 million tons of food end up in the garbage. As a result, all the resources that were used in food production, including water, land use, energy, human labour and capital, are also wasted.” This waste is shocking when we look at the reality of countries and contexts with difficulties in accessing food for subsistence, in many cases, basic.As this is a problem that goes beyond food waste – it also encompasses the resources spent and the environmental and social consequences – the United Nations has decreed, by 2030, a set of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that aim to solve/mitigate some of the biggest society's problems in order to ensure a sustainable, integrated and inclusive future for all.In this sense, it is increasingly crucial to work with future generations for their empowerment, awareness and information about current and future environmental and social challenges.It was based on this current reality and the importance of making young people an active part in social and environmental change that this project idea came about. According to data from the European Union (2022), «However, although 96% of young Europeans agree that climate change is a “serious problem”, only 64% of those aged 15 to 25 in the EU have taken steps to fight it in the past six months.». Our idea is, therefore, to work with young people, in an intercultural and transnational context, on issues related to food waste, promoting not only knowledge and information, but also encouraging more sustainable and green thoughts and behaviours. This project, in addition to the impact on the day-to-day and on the choices of each one at an individual level, aims to activate young people for social participation, decision-making processes and social and environmental change. Through non-formal methods we want young people to discover new ways of social participation and to become aware of their role in reversing these challenges/problems.-OBJECTIVES--a- General- Social inclusion of young people in all its aspects, with particular emphasis on decision-making on social and environmental changes.-Specific-According to SMART logic:- Promote the development of key and green competences among young people through mobility opportunities for non-formal learning purposes;- Empower young people in the project's theme, link them with each other and involve them in the processes of participation and social and environmental change;- Promote accessible opportunities in order to include young people with fewer opportunities in personal and social development initiatives;- Reinforce European social values such as diversity, inclusion, tolerance and respect;- Activate young people to face local challenges and to adopt thoughts and behaviours with a positive impact on society and the environment.<< Implementation >>The project has four phases:- Planning;- Preparation;- Implementation;- Follow-up.These phases cover a set of activities that, in total, will be central to achieving the project's objectives and results.-PLANNING-The planning phase covers a range of activities such as, for example, co-production of the application, constitution of the consortium, submission of the application, idea development, identification of needs and definition of processes, procedures and strategies. In addition, it encompasses the definition of profiles of those involved, selection processes, design of activity plans, definition of learning objectives and the definition of methodology and methods for the project.-PREPARATION-The activities that are part of the preparation phase include the preparation of young people for the project and for activities, in particular mobility. These sessions will have orientation topics with a view to meeting the needs of the participants.Preparation activities will be carried out in local groups and in transnational groups (using digital media).There will be a physical mobility activity in the preparation phase – preparatory visit. This visit will last for 2 days, plus 2 days for the travel. We intend to involve 2 participants per organisation (1 group leader and 1 young person, preferably with fewer opportunities). The visit will take place in Lisbon (Portugal).-IMPLEMENTATION-The main activity is the youth exchange, taking place in the city of Lisbon (Portugal). The activity has 5 days, plus 2 for the travel. We expect to involve 4 young people per organisation, 3 of which will be in a situation of fewer opportunities, and 1 group leader. We will still have the presence of 2 facilitators.-FOLLOW-UP-The last phase encompasses monitoring and evaluation, and there will be defined and articulated processes between the consortium to properly respond to the needs, and the dissemination and exploitation of the results. The last activities take on a strong external aspect so that new actions arise and to promote the sustainability of results and benefits.Regarding the profile of the participants:-YOUNG PEOPLE--a- Generic- Age between 13-18 years, preferably;- With minimal knowledge and command of the English language;- Motivated to participate in European mobility projects;- With emotional and time availability to participate in the project and in the activities involved.-b- SpecificsThe profile above is the general one. Added to this profile is the particularity that, in each group of participants, there may be young people with fewer opportunities. The objective is to involve young people with fewer opportunities and without fewer opportunities so that there is a rich sharing and learning, based on different and complementary experiences and experiences.In terms of obstacles, those identified in the work with the consortium's young people essentially focus on:- Economic: coming from low-income families, which makes it impossible to participate in learning activities (when these have an associated cost);- Related to the education system: arising from the maladjustment of the means of formal learning to the development of competences that is reflected in situations of learning maladjustments;- Cultural: related to the difficulty in foreign languages;- Geographic: from places with low supply of services and opportunities.-GROUP LEADER-- Age equal to or greater than 18 years;With knowledge and/or experience at the level:- Of Erasmus+ Programme and/or other European programmes;- Of intercultural group work;- Of work and integration of fewer opportunities;- Of english (spoken, written and reading);- The methodology of non-formal and informal education and respective methods and dynamics;- The management of learning, time, expectations and people;- Group leadership competences.-FACILITATORS-- Age equal to or greater than 18 years;- With a contractual, service provision and/or informal relationship with the organisation;With specialized knowledge and/or experience amplified to the level:- Of food waste, environmental issues, climate change, etc.;- Of management and facilitation of intercultural groups (being able to act quickly in conflict situations and implement resolution measures);- The methodology of non-formal and informal education and its applicability to youth;- Of digital and physical platforms and tools for working with young people;- Of work and integration of fewer opportunities;- Of project management and partnership management;- Of English (spoken, written and reading);- Group leadership competences.<< Results >>-RESULTS--a- TangiblesThey correspond to the materialized results of the project, that is, those that exist for consultation in physical and/or digital format. They can thus be disseminated and exploited by interested parties.- YOUth in the social and environmental change: ideas and practices (recommendations from young people on how to work the themes with ideas and practices);- Project E-booklet (identification of the main project information);- Other content and materials that are developed throughout the project.-b- IntangiblesThey correspond to the results that do not materialize, that is, those that refer to the competences (knowledge, skills, attitudes) that are acquired and/or reinforced through the project. Although they are not materialized, the 8 key competences to be developed are recognized by Youthpass (a European validation certificate of key competences).For all the work developed in the project, where the participants will be involved in a multicultural environment and will assume an active and participative attitude, competence will be developed: literacy competence; multilingual competence; mathematical competence and competence in science, technology and engineering; digital competence; personal, social and learning to learn competence; citizenship competence; entrepreneurship competence; cultural awareness and expression competence.-IMPACTS--a- Young people- Greater capacity for critical analysis of their needs and challenges, also managing to understand what limitations exist for the empowerment of young people at European level;- Greater sensitivity in understanding the current and future path, relating it to current European and global priorities and strategies and to its active role in this process;- Development of key competences for lifelong learning;- Development of green competences, being better able to recognize challenges and effects and being better able to understand what they can do, how they can do it and who they can involve in change processes;- Access to more information and more knowledge;- Access to new learning experiences while getting to know and value European social values;- Greater knowledge of the European reality, both with regard to issues of environmental sustainability and food waste, and with regard to social and youth particularities;- Development of intercultural, linguistic and digital competences;- Greater sense of responsibility and proactivity, entrepreneurship and self-empowerment;- Greater understanding of the benefit of non-formal and informal education in their personal and social development and, even, in the development of more technical skills, complementary to formal knowledge;- Greater ability to analyse the different realities and to realize that there are obstacles to the participation of their peers;- Greater ability to identify opportunities and discuss them with policy makers in order to generate influence on public programs/policies.-b- Organisations- Development of key competences at the project management level, in all its life cycle phases;- Improvement of the recommended work with youth, through the development of new actions and activities more suited to the needs of young people, in line with current priorities and strategies and more accessible and appealing to youth groups;- Access to knowledge, tools and instruments, through active sharing, which can be replicated/adjusted in their daily intervention with young people;- Innovation and increase in the quality of its actions and the results achieved;- Greater ability to act internationally and will be able to work on future European projects in partnership;- Greater participation in non-formal projects and activities, fostering not only the continuous reinforcement of the competences of its teams, but also the international experience;- Access to more intervention tools with youth, which are adjusted to the European reality and to the particularities of the target groups;- More modern, dynamic and committed environments, able to invest in youth and to involve different sectors and agents.

<< Objectives >>Next Stop: Coaching! is a project on coaching and mentoring for youth workers with 0-2 years of experience in youth work. The main focus of this project is for youth workers to develop a coaching method that will enable them to better support youngsters with fewer opportunities on a one-to-one and community basis. We aim on bringing together 30 youth workers and 10 partner organizations in order to develop coaching skills, tools, techniques, knowledge, competencies, and confidence to support the youngsters on a daily basis in different youth activities: ESC programs, youth exchanges, mobilities, workshops, different non-formal educational activities and in future projects. Main tools and topics during the mobility: coaching, conversation techniques, and needs analysis (on an individual level and organizational level), role-play - theatre and contact impro, crisis situation simulation; reflection; outdoor and indoor educational activitiesThe main objective of Next Stop: Coaching! is:- to train 30 youth workers in gaining coaching skills and competencies and develop a coaching method that will enable them to better support youngsters with fewer opportunities Objectives:- to train with 30 youth workers on developing coaching tools and techniques in guiding youngsters with fewer opportunities in one-to-one and group settings- to train with 30 youth workers on developing key competencies to support youngsters in discovering different pathways to education, employment, and jobs- to support youth workers and youth organizations to define their coaching method and style for including young people with fewer opportunities in future projects and initiatives- to build a support network of youth workers and stakeholders across Europe- to improve the quality of 10 youth organizations in the way they work with youngsters- to ensure that evaluation of the learning and implementation of this to daily work with young people happens during the project through Youth passes, questionnaires, and after the project through follow-up coaching and mentoring sessions- to disseminate and spread the outcomes of Next Stop: Coaching! project through organizing youth workshops for youngsters with the purpose of coaching them and including them in the projects- to disseminate and spread coaching tools and techniques through a Video GuidelineFurther objectives include (in line with the EU Youth Work agenda, Quality Standards, and Erasmus+ objectives) are: - contributing to high-quality individual practice as well as to the evolution of youth work organizations and systems; by offering the youth workers coaching tools and practices for guiding youngsters with fewer opportunities individually and in group settings- promoting active citizenship, social inclusion, and employability of young people through educating youth workers and youth organizations – once the youth workers gain new skills and competencies, they can implement new ways of educating young people and therefore include them more effectively youngsters in their work- building a support network of youth workers and youth organizations that can support the quality of projects and activities for young people in EU programs and beyond and share best practices<< Implementation >>The activities we want to implement consist of: 1) Preparation: Integrative Map, completing the needs questionnaire by the youth organizations, the individual meeting between the youth organization and youth workers, creating and signing the learning agreement between youth organizations, youth workers, and Synchro Foundation, info kit for youth workers2) Online assignments for the youth workers involved in the PDA shared on the Facebook group 3) Professional Development Activity for youth workers: 7 days event in Ommen, the Netherlands, at Olde Vechte accommodation, based on theoretical input and practice of the material, non-formal learning: coaching (e.g. wellbeing coaching, practicing presence as youth workers, asking questions, needs analysis tools); embodiment (reflecting and thinking also with the body and not just with the mind); non-violent communication, role-play (practicing critical conversation, elements of theatre & improv as well); open sharing in big groups/reflection groups and in the buddy system; outdoor & indoor educational activities. All methods are based on learning by doing: working on up-to-date and real-life scenarios. During the preparation, we will explore recommendations of different work forms together with the partner organizations before signing the Learning Agreement through our constant communication. We will make sure that the methods allowing them to learn are high quality is based on their needs (looking at the questionnaire the partner organizations completed, and the application forms of the youth workers involved in the project) 4) Evaluation and dissemination5) Sharing results in Facebook groups, social media: Facebook, Instagram, and websites of the partnersParticipant profile:Throughout the project, we aim on bringing together 30 youth workers who are at the beginning of their path in guiding youngsters with fewer opportunities in one-to-one and group settings. Each partner organization is going to select three participants based on the profile provided:- one of the three participants will be a youngster with fewer opportunities who, according to our partner organization, has the potential and opportunity to develop in the field of youth work- between 0 and 2 years of experience in Youth Work and guiding youngsters with fewer opportunities- the age of the youth workers is from 20+, we have no maximum age limit since people are motivated to learn at all ages and we would like to keep this option available for everyone- active members of the organization, being involved in one or more activities organized by the organization, this way the learned material during the training to be translated and implemented in the partner organization - having curiosity and interest in how to work more efficiently with youngsters with fewer opportunities, open to learning coaching tools and developing a sustainable coaching method that supports in guiding the target group - never participated in a Professional Development Activity on coaching and mentoring- working with marginalized groups and people facing fewer opportunities: people with social obstacles, facing discrimination because of gender, biological sex, age, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, disability, or any other characteristic of the identity; people with limited social skills or anti-social behavior or at risk; young people in a precarious situation, people with economic difficulties; young people with learning difficulties or unemployed, NEETs, stuck in life outside of the cycle of education and training; geographically isolated persons, belonging to minorities.It is made clear to participating organizations the project is eager to create an equal gender balance when selecting participants. We would not like to discriminate in the application based on gender either, and we will make sure to do our best to create gender-balanced gatherings.<< Results >>The project will have tangible results such as: 1) Creating a VIDEO guideline for youth workers and youth organizations who are working with YPFO which contains different coaching tools, techniques, and approaches. The guideline will be used for different events and activities they want to implement, as well as when they are working with other partners on youth exchanges/mobilities in which they include youngsters with fewer opportunities or in ESC projects. The guideline will be shared with the partner organizations who can therefore share it with their partners and participants who will be involved in their future activities as a direction and overview on working methods and approaches when it comes to working youngsters with fewer opportunities. They will also share it within their own local and regional network of youth organizations.2) Organizing a youth workshop for the youngsters with fewer opportunities with the aim of including them in the organization, and supporting them in their development, such as applying for a job or choosing a school3) Organizing a workshop/activity in the local youth organization for the other youth workers, volunteers, and active members of the youth organization in order to practice once again the material learned during the training and educate other youth workers on how they can facilitate and guide groups of youngsters with fewer opportunities.4) We expect that each youth worker and youth organization use the research they made of the Integrative Map when applying for funds, grand, sponsors, etc. in order to let other parties know in which situation they are working.We expect that once back home, there will already be an impact on their organization and people:- They will be inclusive to groups of young people, giving the opportunity for the organization to grow - They will implement new activities within the organization using the coaching skills and competencies they developed during the project- They will enrich their perspective and have different approaches to crisis situations - They will approach the critical conversation with their target groups with the purpose of creating dialogue, instead of unnecessary advice-giving - Offering the youngsters time for reflection, according to the coaching tools they acquire- Being more aware of themselves, their presence, and their role as youth workers in connection to the youngsters and with the youth organization- They will address issues in the organization openly, creating a dialogue with colleagues and young people- They will be more competent in listening and acknowledging the young people they work with and their opinions, identifying the real needs behind their behaviors- They will be able to respond instead of reacting to challenging participants and connect with them- Build a support network of youth workers from across Europe to keep in contact and share best practices which will serve also after the project- Build and fine-tune their own working style as youth workers, by integrating coaching skills and competencies- Create connections locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally and expand their networkThe project will have intangible results such as:• gaining coaching skills and competencies that help youth workers support their target group and include them back in society• a set of non-formal and informal tools and coaching tools and techniques they can use in their organization• valuable insights and awareness also on a personal level and skills that can be transferred into personal life as well• a support network of youth workers and like-minded organizations facing and focusing on similar developments

"EllE is resulting from the current global challenges and local young needs. Advances in terms of human development has been uneven and deep challenges remain. Young people are at the frontline of the impacts of unsustainable models due to their marginalisation and higher vulnerability. They need to improve knowledge, skills, competencies and experience on SDGs, to empower themselves and to spread knowledge to the society to build a better world. EllE is based on young: as the main actor of the effective development and their full participation. The ""bottom-up"" approach from local to global, it is able to extend the results and network worldwide. EllE aims to foster participation and cooperation of youth for Sustainable Development in the three peninsulas of South Europe through: youth empowerment, fostering inclusive development and building resilient communities and nations. Objectives are to - Enhance Youth Skills to Help Advance SDGs - Motivate the youngsters to get active and empower them to turn their ideas into real social activities - Build capacity through exchange of ideas, information, experiences and good practices - Construct of EllE Network in a macro-region for young cooperation and joint actions - Raise awareness, promote an active dialogue and strengthen cross-sectorial cooperation among youth & stakeholders allowing for greater synergies across all fields on SDGs - Develop a new holistic (participative, collaborative, inclusive and accessible) youth empowerment model of implementing SDGs and strengthen young people's sense of initiative - Increase and exploit European cooperation in promoting & implementing SDGs through empowered youth. Participants are young people aged 18-24, including youth with fewer opportunities. There will be 900 young people directly involved and through the Platform this number will reach 3000. The project duration will be of 28 months due to the results and time necessary for their implementation. Activities Project management, monitor the progress and achievements of goals, dissemination and exploitation results. Data collection and research of good practice for empowering youth and raising awareness about SDGs. Creation and management of EllE Platform and social networks. Network Enlargement. Organization of online meetings, conferences, peer education events, local workshops, Participation Days, Final Conference, EllE campaign & management of interim, reports. Most of the activities will be carried out by the work online. For the purpose of strengthening cooperation, exchange of experiences and good practices,Transnational Meetings will be organized in: Italy, Portugal, and Greece. The methodological assumptions are - if we improve the skills and competences of young people with enhanced capacities and support then empowered young people take advantage of opportunities for their development and can act effectively as citizens, leaders, innovators and agents of change in their communities and abroad in partnership - if better youth will be engaged to influence decision-making then they will be the agents of change. For this reason, youth empowerment is both a means and an end of EllE. EllE methodology requires: - inclusive and full youth participation and leadership in all phase - an attitudinal, structural and cultural process whereby young people gain the ability, authority and agency to make decisions and implement change in their lives and in societies - Partnership capacities and skills to enable enhanced environment for young empowerment. The main result will be knowledge, experience and good practices about young empowerment on SDGs. Youth will gain: - cognitive, social, relational, ethical, pragmatic, strategic, transversal, healthy and political skills. - empowerment, self-esteem; critical thinking and building attitudes with an understanding of social trends, enhanced employability, improved career prospects.
