Project Summary

One of the priorities of the European Union is the Europe 2000 Strategy, which gives value to education and training in the implementation of youth policies to achieve smart, sustainable and inclusive growth. The Lisbon Strategy is intended to encourage the participation of youth with non-formal learning activities and thus work to reduce social exclusion among youth. Within this framework, the SIEP project was born as a project created to design and promote educational resources so that youth operators can prevent bullying and cyberbullying among young people using the Theater of Oppressed as an educational tool.Taking into account the situation caused by the Covid-19, a proposal had to be modified and developed to carry out this project in virtual contexts. Even so, evaluating the schedule and the objectives set in the project, the proposed actions have been executed in time, as well as the achievement of the objectives.It has been possible to create a consortium between the entities that develop the project and create a collaborative work network in which 5 organizations from 4 countries have worked together to achieve the objectives set. All this arises from the need and effort to provide youth organizations and youth workers with opportunities for training and cooperation in order to generate dialogue and skills that promote and encourage diversity and prevention of social exclusion, especially in bullying and cyberbullying.At first, through a previous investigation, a study about the situation of bullying and cyberbullying was made in each of the countries that collaborate in the project. In this way, we have been able to know each of the realities and their contexts.Another concrete result of the project has been the creation of 22 educational pills organized into 7 groups: icebreaker activities, project introduction, learning by doing – body language, analyzing the context with techniques of Theater of the Oppressed, image theater – creations, advice and creating my educational pills.All the work has been reflected in the creation of a web page with access to the videos of the educational pills uploaded to the Project’s YouTube Channel and translated into the languages ​​of the entities participating in the project: Spanish, English, Portuguese and Guaraní and; the creation of 3 manuals for the implementation of the project in face-to-face or virtual format:• Interactive design manual for educational pills where you will find a series of tips for the execution of educational pills and checklists for preparation, execution and follow-up.• Virtual platforms manual where the different virtual platforms used for the execution of the project are discussed in online format: Blackboard, Powtoon, Socrative and Zoom.• SIEP Manual in virtual format. Summary manual of the project where the different pills are developed and their application for virtual contexts.
