Project Summary

TIP – ”transferring innovative practices in 2nd chance education addressing ELET” has been a strategical partnership project that established a practical learning partnership, as an open collaborative environment, between organizations and practitioners (artists, youth workers, trainers, social workers) active in social and educational work from 5 different European countries (Portugal, UK, Italy, Hungary and Bulgaria), developing processes of networking creative practices in second chance education and social inclusion work. With this partnership we shared experience and knowledge, exploring the potential of non formal approaches in education, specially addressing young ELET (Early Leavers from Education and Training) and NEET (Not in Employment, Education and Training) but also connecting different target groups, disadvantaged low qualified youngsters and young graduates ready to integrate social and educational working places, both groups being mutually beneficial, both struggling for their first experiences for social and professional integration.
We believe TIP partnership improved the quality and attractiveness of partners’ activities, developing along the 2 years of the project, a common strategy to create and deliver relevant and usable products that can help teachers and other professionals to extend their professional capacities and to engage as active agents of change in their educational settings. The 3 intellectual outputs that have been developed, a school-based staff training program, a toolkit of non formal creative practices and a documentary story telling film were implemented concurrently in the participating schools, with the necessary support for the introduction of these innovative practices through reflective supervisions with experienced trainers, most of them during the international mobility activities.
The innovative practices that proved their potential and efficiency in social educational work addressing early leaving of education and training and attracting adults back to education are now available and easy accessible through the project communication tools, including a dedicated webpage – www.tip-eu.com.
The project put a lot of efforts to promote the public awareness on the importance of non formal alternative approaches in social and educational work, addressing marginalized groups, organizing public seminars and trainings in the different countries as well as releasing a web interactive virtual platform for sharing and dissemination of results. Two joint staff training events were a fantastic opportunity for mutual learning between participants from our 5 partner countries. The wider dissemination of the project’s products and findings has been very relevant because of the wide local, national and international networks that the partner organizations are members of.
