Project Summary

Considering the crises in European history, the strengths and weaknesses of societies, international relations, managerial skills, and organizational approaches of individuals; Risk action plans can be made. This preparation will cause the crises to disappear with minimal damage. It is imperative that the administration should support the society by increasing the quality of life and education level of the adult people.
Our project aims to help reduce the contradictory emotional states such as violence, anger, despair, panic, uncontrolled, disengagement created by individuals in crisis, to help individuals contribute to produce different competencies and to improve their literacy skills in terms of digital, health, information and economy by creating adult education modules which intend to guide adult educators and create good practices for LTT activities.
Our project will consist of a total of nine partners under the coordinatorship of Turkey including; Afyonkarahisar A.E.C. England, Italy, Romania, Bulgaria, Norway, Lithuania and Malta.The target audience of our project is adults and stakeholder participants are gathered in 3 groups with a positive ambience to contribute to the project. The first group consists of the trainers, trainees and institution managers working in adult education centers where pilot applications will be carried out. The second group involves other adult education institutions, non-governmental organizations, associations, institutions volunteering with adult audiences, decision makers, local governments and press organs. This group will also play an important role in the promotion and dissemination of the project. The third group consists of all kinds of institutions and adults who will benefit from the project results.

Two LTT organizations will take place with a total of 27 participants, with 2 participants and a project manager. Attention has been paid to ensure that the individuals who will participate in these activities have readiness for activity fields, have the ability to participate in project activities and conduct teamwork, have high communication skills, speak English well, follow technological developments and have no obstacles to go abroad.
The project activities will consist of preparation, planning, implementation, monitoring-evaluation, dissemination and sustainability stages, and each step will be carried out in a planned manner, and partner institutions will contribute to the process as a whole with their responsibilities.
