"Within the framework of the LeTITBE Project, 5 intellectual products have been designed and are available through the project website. http://mefacilytaletitbe.eu/ and in the two published manuals aimed at professionals and people with disabilities who want to access and use these products in their teaching-learning processes. The first product is a digital training curriculum aimed at adults with disabilities with three different training itineraries. 1. Itinerary of training for employment made up of 6 e-learning programs for training in job skills for different jobs. 2. Training itinerary for the development of social skills, where you can find three training blocks aimed at developing communication skills, problem-solving skills and emergency management 3. Training itinerary to promote the recognition, defense and dissemination of the rights of people with disabilities, consisting of 2 training programs newly designed in digital support. Introduction to the rights of people with disabilities and Analysis of situations of the daily life where the rights of people with disabilities are respected or violated The three available itineraries share a common structure where, in addition to theoretical materials, there are evaluation activities or serious games that allow both educators and students to measure the degree of knowledge achieved in each of the content blocks. The digital materials that make up these training proposals are available in 5 languages (English, Spanish, German, Portuguese and Polish). Secondly, the LeTITBE project, the partners have worked collaboratively in the creation and elaboration of a European application protocol to improve the fulfillment of the rights of adults with disabilities in educational centers. This second Intellectual product is also available in the 5 languages afore mentioned. In addition to the above, within the framework of this project a third intellectual product has been developed where the Vodafone Spain Foundation, together with the rest of the project partners, have designed 5 templates of serious games aimed at training identified cognitive functions that allow them to train. adult students in the transition from education to the labor market. The Intellectual product 4, again led by the Vodafone Spain Foundation, consisted of the design of a network of accessibility tools to facilitate the use of tablets and mobile applications for people with mobility support needs. In this same sense, the project partners have been able to test other solutions that facilitate the communication of people with communication, language or speech disorders. Finally, and to guarantee the scalability of these efforts, the fifth intellectual product of the project are 2 pedagogical manuals that offer detailed information about the main results that act as a tutorial to them.A manual is aimed at professionals and another written according to easy-to-read guidelines is aimed at adult students with disabilities. The LeTITBE consortium has involved 9 partners from 7 EU Member States and has been led by the Juan Ciudad Foundation (Spain). The main support in the development and testing of digital educational programs and accessibility tools for mobile devices has been provided by the Vodafone Spain Foundation, while the Belgian partner (Hospitality Europe) has advised on management rules, compliance with the grant agreement and it has ensured the European visibility and dissemination of the project's activities and results, in contact with the EU institutions and interest groups in Brussels. The project has benefited 2 target groups: adult students with disabilities and educators and staff of educational and care centers. Approximately 105 adult students with disabilities, 35 adult educators, plus 20 additional participants (administrators, staff, etc.) at the consortium level have participated in the strategic partnership. The project beneficiaries have increased their skills in the use of ICTs, mobile devices and educational software. They have participated in the co-creation, testing and use of the new learning programs and serious games. On the other hand, raising awareness about the rights of people with disabilities has benefited not only at a didactic level, but also human and social relations between students and teachers. During the project, 3 face-to-face transnational meetings have been held and due to Covid-19 the other two planned have had to take place online. Likewise, 6 national multiplier events have been carried out where each partner has shared with stakeholders the results of the project where more than 100 different entities have participated showing great interest in the use of the materials and tools designed. Numerous pilot training sessions with people with disabilities have been conducted at the local level to test digital educational outcomes. In the final stretch of the project, a 5-day online meeting was held where adult students with disabilities participated in joint training sessions, being able to exchange their experiences and knowledge acquired at the national level, reinforcing the European project network. The LeTITBE project has reinforced the pedagogical innovation processes in all the centers that participate in this consortium, covering important needs and aspirations of adult students with intellectual disabilities or physical disabilities. By integrating digital education with awareness of the rights of people with disabilities, the project will undoubtedly contribute to promoting equality in today's European society. Similar to the meaning of the song ""Let It Be"" from The Beatles' latest album, this European project aims to become a statement of hope and opportunity for adults with disabilities in the educational world."

•Context/background of the project;A través del Programa Europeo, Erasmus+, y en la línea que establece la Estrategia Europea sobre Discapacidad 2010-2020, siete centros de la Orden Hospitalaria de San Juan de Dios (OHSJD) en distintos países de la Unión Europea, abordan el uso de la herramienta digital Mefacilyta desarrollada por Fundación Vodafone España (FVE), en los procesos educativos de personas adultas con discapacidad intelectual y otras neurodeficiencias.

"Most of the persons who suffered domestic violence in their childhood or were grown in a violent family and social environment face today a wide range of psychological and post-traumatic disorders, living in conditions of isolation and segregation. Physical violence, verbal insults and moral duress hit the victims emotionally, psychologically and physically. In the long run, this condition has harmed also the victims’ learning process in many ways, leading them to lose interest in education, school dropping out and lack of any motivation in learning and skilling up themselves to lead an active lifestyle, improve their psychological wellbeing and exit their condition of isolation and social exclusion. Within this context, today’s adult teachers, social educators and other carers supporting adults victims of violence need to improve their competences in motivating adult persons victims of violence in approaching new learning and occupational activities aimed at revamping their literacy, numeracy, manual and digital skills, and, ultimately, at overstepping the trauma, pain and suffering caused by violence experienced in their life. VICTORIA project is designed to train and enrich the competences of adult educators, teachers and social carers in acquiring effective methodologies and teaching skills targeted to the psychological and personal needs of adults victims of violence. The VICTORIA consortium is made up of 6 partners from 4 EU Member States and is coordinated by Fundación Juan Ciudad (SPAIN). Partners are educational and care organizations supporting different vulnerable groups of adult persons who were victims of violence: persons with disabilities or with challenging behavior, mental health patients, migrants and refugees. Hospitality Europe (BELGIUM) will advise on management rules, compliance with the grant agreement and secure European visibility and dissemination of project’s activities and results, liaising with the EU Institutions and stakeholders in Brussels. The project will benefit 2 target groups: direct beneficiaries are adult teachers and educational staff supporting persons victims of violence, meanwhile indirect beneficiaries are the adult persons who suffered violence in their past and face today a condition of lower education, segregation and social exclusion. At least 40 adult teachers and social educators plus dozens of additional participants (administrators, staff, etc.) at consortium level will be involved in the strategic partnership, in order to deliver: - a Protocol for educational and care organizations setting harmonized standards for the psychological and educational support of adult persons victims of violence;- a Training Course to improve the competencies of educators, teachers and social carers of adult learners victims of violence;- one Handbook of good practices for adult teachers and educational staff supporting adult victims of violence;- EU guidelines to supervise the learning progress and social reinsertion of adult persons who suffered violenceProject’s beneficiaries will increase their understanding of the psychological and educational needs of adults who suffered violence in their past and drooped out schools and education because of trauma and suffering. The enhancement of their competencies and teaching skills will benefit also their adult students and persons attending their educational and care organizations. On the other hand, revamping the learning and occupational skills of these adult learners will benefit them not only at the didactical level, but also their physical and psychological health status as well as social reinsertion. Comprehensively, the project will produce 4 intellectual outputs, 5 transnational project meetings and 3 national multiplier events. Additionally, the VICTORIA Training Course will be tested in a pilot coaching session to be conducted at the local level. One blended mobility of adult educators will be also organized, giving the opportunity to teachers and care staff to travel, meet and exchange their competences and experience acquired at the national level, strengthening the European project’s network. In doing so, VICTORIA project will integrate an innovative and effective pedagogical approach at the benefit of the educational and personal needs of adult learners victims of violence. Recovering the full value of adult persons through an appropriate stimulation of educational processes and outcomes, the project will definitely contribute to overstep and win the negative traits of violence and pain. In the year of Brexit and EU elections, this project’s acronym recalls also the European greatness of British Queen Victoria, whose nine children married into royal and noble families across the Continent, tying them together and earning her the sobriquet ""the grandmother of Europe"". Only those who do not look back at history are condemned to repeat violence, mistakes and isolation."

The consequences of Covid-19 crisis outdistanced not only the ordinary lives of citizens but also the regular interaction between different educational, socio-economic and cultural sectors. One of the hardest radical changes of this “social breakdown” impacted the linkage between the fields of adult education of persons with disabilities and the cultural and creative institutions. Along with the springtime confinement and even after the severe lockdown in Europe, adult persons with disabilities ceased any possibility to take part in intercultural activities either in their own educational settings or at the premises of artistic institutions. At the same time, professionals and actors from the creative field were prevented to reach the most disadvantaged groups and offer them artistic and cultural pedagogical programmes, which often turn to be a unique channel of inclusive education and skills development. The REVIVAL project represents an innovative and practical response to this inter-sectoral gap and aims at opening new pathways of educational interaction between the creative sector and the adult disability world. Leveraging from the successful LET IT BE project (2018-1-ES01-KA204-050049), the partners – both educational and creative organizations – will develop a digital theatre education course and artistic works for adults with disabilities that will be available in an online creative collaborative platform. In addition to the virtual theatre education, the REVIVAL project will equip adult learners and organizations with a wide range of participatory opportunities overcoming the long-lasting Covid-19 barriers: - promoting physical and virtual accessibility to local cultural events, particularly to adults with disabilities;- collecting and disseminating at local, national and European level audio and video documentation on cultural and artistic events and on artists' works, acting as a fly-wheel for the career of artists and visibility of local cultural actors;- encouraging the organisation of creative and cultural events at adult educational settings, representing an “e-bridge” between cultural institutions and socio-educational centers, guiding towards sound compliance with Covid-19 security measures. In doing so, the REVIVAL project enhances social inclusion through arts and helps the cultural and creative sectors to recover from the crisis in terms of green, more digital and resilient recovery, thereby also contributing to the EU’s strategic priorities.The project will benefit 2 target groups: adult learners with disabilities and theatre operators and artists. Approximately 60 adult learners with disabilities, 15 creative actors and 15 educators, plus additional staff at consortium level will be involved in the strategic partnership, in order to:- develop a digital theatre education course targeted to adult learners with disabilities, accessible through an online creative collaborative platform - IO 1;- compose a Portfolio of inclusive creative works offered from creative actors to adults with disabilities – IO 2;- produce Covid-19 updated Guidelines for the safe and joint organization of cultural activities, in attendance or virtually, between adult education providers and cultural organizations – IO 3;- develop a cooperation protocol between adult education organisations and cultural entities to promote access to creative works to adults with disabilities – IO 4. Besides the 4 aforementioned intellectual outputs, the project will implement 5 transnational meetings and 7 national multiplier events. Additionally, a cycle of theater training activities will be conducted at the local level to put into practice the digital course. One blended mobility of adult learners will be organized, giving the opportunity to persons with disabilities, educational and creative staff to travel, meet and exchange their experiences and knowledge acquired at a national level, strengthening the REVIVAL network.

“Right to Connect: digital inclusion for persons with intellectual disabilities” is an innovative co-designed e-learning project involving persons with intellectual disabilities (PwID). The project builds on the experience of the ENTELIS and ENTELIS+ projects. It involves 10 partners in 7 countries forming a multidisciplinary consortium of service providers, universities, a company and European umbrella organisations.The project aims at fostering the digital skills development of PwID to enhance their participation in society and to express active citizenship.The project will: - contribute to the development of digital skills of PwID by applying peer-to-peer education model- produce teaching resources and tools for digital skills development with a special focus on ones supporting online participation - provide universal framework for the building of the competence of those supporting PwID in developing their digital skills- develop an accessible e-learning platform for PwID (co-designed by them) and guidelines for its use. - rise awareness on digital inclusion of PwID.Main activities are: “research and innovation” WP which will provide the methodological base to define needs of digital skills of PwID and tools for future development, the “co-creation labs” and “co-designed e-learning platform” will be focused on the participatory process of engaging PwID in the development and co-design of training materials and the e-learning platform. The project will involve min: 50 PwID in WP1, 16 PwID and 8 educators in the co-design process, 50 PwID and 20 educators in the training sessions. 100 users with ID will be involved in creation of training materials and unlimited users will be able to use the materials and the e-learning platform. More than 10.000 persons will be involved in the dissemination activities at national and international level (PwID, organizations of PwD, service providers, education & training providers, policy makers).
