Climate Action

 Project Full Name: Empowering Change-Makers in Schools 

Duration: 01.01.2025 to 30.06.2026

Sector: KA210-SCH - Small-scale partnerships in school education

Project Number: 2024-2-IT02-SCH-000265949 


The project aims to increase climate literacy among students and teachers by equipping them with comprehensive knowledge about climate change, its causes, effects, and the role of human activities. Participants gain practical skills to design, implement, and manage climate action projects within their schools and communities, resulting in measurable environmental improvements such as reduced energy consumption and enhanced waste management. The project also introduces students and teachers to the principles of environmental economics, enabling them to evaluate the economic feasibility and benefits of their climate initiatives and understand the opportunities for sustainable economic growth.


Collaboration is central to the project, fostering networks among schools, students, teachers, and local communities to share best practices and collaborate on climate action. The project establishes sustainable partnerships by building these connections, with multiple schools regularly exchanging resources and ideas. It also encourages long-term behavioural change by promoting sustainable practices in daily life, with follow-up assessments showing that most participants adopt at least one environmentally responsible habit.


The project aligns with key priorities, including empowering youth through increased climate literacy and practical action, promoting education for sustainable development by integrating sustainability into curricula and daily practices, encouraging community engagement to foster collective responsibility, and enhancing economic understanding to prepare participants for future challenges and opportunities in a green economy.

FSI

 Project Full Name: Flexi-Skilled Innovators - Empowering the Next Generation VET Professionals 

Duration: 01.09.2025 to 31.10.2027

Sector: KA220-VET - Cooperation partnerships in vocational education and training

Project Number: TBA


The Flexi-Skilled Innovators project aims to modernise VET by tackling the growing skills gap, the challenges of digital transformation, and the need for more flexible learning pathways. With rapid advancements in automation, AI, and sustainability transitions, many workers and learners struggle to keep pace with evolving job market demands. However, many traditional VET systems are static in their approach to learning models, digital tools, and micro-credentials, which makes it difficult for learners to update their skills to match the changing world of work.


FSI offers a new approach by developing an AI-powered Flexi-Skill Learning Platform that creates personalised learning paths, includes gamified micro-learning, and incorporates virtual work-based learning (WBL) simulations. This enables learners to participate in realistic and interactive situations based on real-life industry scenarios and, at the same time, gain stackable micro-credentials that support continued learning, career change, and workforce flexibility. These credentials are consistent with the Council Recommendation on Micro-Credentials (2022) and the European Skills Agenda, meaning that the learners can obtain standardised and easily portable qualifications to improve their employability.


FSI also focuses on equity and equality, so everyone, including people with disabilities, those from rural areas, and other marginalised populations, can benefit from training programs. The platform fully complies with the Erasmus+ Inclusion and Diversity Strategy, with sign language, subtitles, and adaptive learning techniques. Thereby, FSI contributes to the easy implementation of digital education for the target group of learners who may face challenges with conventional teaching methods. 

LeadDEI

 Project Full Name: Leveraging Empowerment for Advancing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in workplaces

Duration: 04.11.2025 to 03.01.2028

Sector: KA220-ADU - Cooperation partnerships in adult education

Project Number: 2025-1-MT01-KA220-ADU-000359268


LeadDEI aims to create a high-quality digital hub with AI-tailored content dedicated to training decision-makers, HR professionals, and guidance staff on DEI practices in the workplace. Through this, we want to improve self-confidence, active participation in society, and employability prospects and entrepreneurship opportunities of underrepresented groups. The project intends to cultivate conscious decision-maker professionals who can contribute to a more inclusive future.


The LeadDEI project aims to bridge intercultural, intergenerational, and social divides by fostering inclusive leadership and workplace diversity practices. It seeks to equip workplace leaders with the necessary skills to actively implement equity-driven strategies that promote understanding and inclusion across all levels of an organisation. A key focus is transforming workplaces into environments that embrace cultural, generational, and social diversity, ensuring that individuals from diverse backgrounds feel valued and empowered. The project raises awareness and provides practical tools and training curricula to embed diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) principles into everyday professional and social interactions. Cultivating an inclusive mindset within workplaces will naturally extend the values of DEI to employees' personal lives and contribute to broader societal cohesion. 


Furthermore, the project strengthens intergenerational collaboration by enhancing the competencies of workplace leaders, enabling them to mentor and support diverse adult learners. These trained professionals will become agents of change, ensuring that work ecosystems remain adaptable to evolving social and cultural dynamics. Furthermore, with the integration of corporate guidance experts, the project aims to leverage cross-sector expertise to develop inclusive policies that address workforce diversity in various organisational contexts.

FemEntrepreneur

Project Full Name: Fostering Entrepreneurial Spirit and Innovation for Women Over 40+

They will expand their professional networks and build meaningful connections within the entrepreneurial community. As a result, we anticipate a notable increase in people over 40 launching and sustaining successful businesses. Beyond individual growth, the project will foster a supportive ecosystem that encourages innovation and drives social impact. Ultimately, it aims to contribute to a cultural shift towards greater recognition and support for female entrepreneurs, paving the way for a more inclusive entrepreneurial landscape.


The objectives of our project are closely linked to selected priorities. By creating upskilling and reskilling pathways, our workshops and training sessions focus on essential entrepreneurial skills, empowering women to re-enter the workforce or establish their own ventures. To increase take-up and improve inclusiveness and accessibility of adult education, we are committed to building a supportive community, offering mentorship, and ensuring free access to online training materials, thereby reducing women's education barriers. Finally, by addressing digital transformation, we integrate digital literacy training and provide an online learning platform that strengthens digital readiness, resilience, and capacity among participants, aligning fully with broader goals of digital empowerment.

Past Projects

BEE

Project Full Name: Blue Economy Entrepreneurship

Duration: 01.09.2022 to 31.08.2024

Sector: KA220-ADU-AD0649B2

Programme: Erasmus Plus - KA220-ADU

Project Number: KA220-ADU-AD0649B2


The BEE project aimed to create new education opportunities for low-skilled adults facing economic difficulties and living in European islands, focusing on the blue economy and entrepreneurship skills. By prioritising the creation of upskilling pathways, improving accessibility, and increasing participation in adult education, the project focused on coastal tourism within the Blue Economy. Coastal tourism, a significant sector component, accounted for 5.4 million jobs across Europe, representing 64% of employment and 41% of profits in the EU Blue Economy.


Enhancing competences in these fields allowed the target group to progress towards qualifications and enter the labour market more effectively. Qualifications were validated through the EntreComp Framework and Europass, ensuring they could be used beyond the project. Moreover, as the Blue Economy sector is closely linked to environmental sustainability and the fight against climate change, the project also promoted sustainable green and blue economic growth.


Target Audiences: Young unemployed adults aged 18–35 facing economic difficulties and limited educational opportunities, as well as adult educators involved in producing the project’s results.

Climate Map

 Project Full Name: Interactive Map for Cross-Country Inspiration for Climate Change Prevention

Duration: 01.01.2024 to 30.06.2025

Sector: KA210-ADU - Small-Scale Partnerships in Adult Education

Project Number: 2023-2-DE02-KA210-ADU-000175080


This project focused on fostering learning from each other in the fight against climate change. Building on the high demand for previous outputs, the project partners prepared application-oriented regional and national case studies for climate and environmental protection from the C4CC project in an extended multimedia format. These materials were designed for sustainable transfer across a cross-border European context and could be used as-is or adapted for local needs.


Perpetual wall calendars and an interactive online climate map were entry points to various educational, inspirational, and actionable materials suitable for multiple contexts and stakeholders. During the project’s LTTAs, dissemination, and pilot activities, it became evident that the local resources were exciting and inspirational for other countries; however, as they existed only in national languages, they were largely inaccessible in a cross-national context. Additionally, feedback suggested the value of creating a perpetual calendar that could be used year after year without specifying dates or weekdays.


In this project, the original C4CC project partners collaborated with newcomer organisations to produce a perpetual calendar, translate national content into English, and update any outdated materials. The new EU climate map was a gateway to these resources and connected to the existing CACC app, ensuring continued accessibility and usability.

Duration: 01.09.2022 to 31.08.2024

Programme: Erasmus Plus - KA220-ADU

Project Number: 2022-1-DE-KA220-ADU-000086609


The GIGGERS programme for the self-employed aimed to encourage and enable unemployed individuals to create their own jobs by taking advantage of opportunities offered by the gig economy. The gig economy, a growing provision of labour services enabled by technological advancements and accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, provided new opportunities for communities to recover more quickly from the crisis by helping workers transition smoothly into other sectors or jobs. This was particularly important for workers in rural areas where employment opportunities had stagnated or were unavailable.


The project focused on giving older adults over 50 a second chance after being laid off due to the pandemic and facing barriers to re-entering the workforce because of age, gender, or lack of specific skills. Many of these individuals could not work independently and remotely using ICT tools. The project also assisted unemployed adults in developing a wide range of skills - digital, transversal, entrepreneurial, and employability skills - necessary for the current labour market, as well as specific skills such as flexibility, goal-orientation, time management, basic accounting, negotiation, and self-management, required by self-employed individuals, small contractors, microentrepreneurs, or anyone interested in remote work.


Target Audience: Individuals working in the gig economy, with a primary focus on those aged 50 and above.

RETAIN-ME

 Project Full Name: Remote working solutions to support the retention of older workers who are vulnerable to Covid-19

Duration: 01.01.2022 to 31.12.2023

Sector: Strategic Partnership for Adult Education Programme: KA220-VET - Cooperation partnerships in vocational education and training

Project Number: 2021-1-SE01-KA220-VET-000032922


Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, some older people were considered vulnerable and high-risk because of underlying health conditions. While some could work remotely thanks to the necessary skills and employment opportunities, a large group of older adults lacked the digital skills or professional competencies required for remote work.


RETAIN-ME addressed these challenges by developing bespoke training resources to ensure that vulnerable workers could be retained in employment. Through the results produced by the RETAIN-ME project team, the project supported older and vulnerable workers in embracing the digital transition in European workforces, enabling them to continue making active and meaningful contributions to European economic, civic, and social life—facilitated through the use of digital technologies and platforms.


Target Audience: Business owners and managers, as well as individual vulnerable employees seeking to rebuild their social, civic, and economic lives by adapting to remote work.

EUQUALIZER

Project Full Name: The Equalizer

Duration: 22.01.2022 to 22.01.2024

Sector: Strategic Partnership for Adult Education Programme: Erasmus Plus - Cooperation for innovation & the exchange of good practices

Project Number: 2021-1-ES01-KA220-ADU-000029714


The COVID crisis exacerbated gender inequality and the challenges faced by disabled people in society. These marginalised groups were not only excluded from mainstream society economically, culturally, and educationally, but were also often subjected to stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination.


Equalizer was an Erasmus KA2 project that tackled the problem of stereotypes. The negative influence of stereotypes, often overlooked, was addressed by targeting educational institutions and organisations to ignite conversations about stereotypes in different learning environments to raise awareness and promote inclusiveness.


The project focused on four groups requiring attention: the LGBT+ community, gender inequality, disability, and racism. Skills Zone Malta specifically addressed gender inequality. Awareness-raising was achieved through research, an awareness campaign, and developing a MOOC toolkit.


Target Audience: Educational institutions, NGOs, LGBT+ community, gender equality advocates, disabled people, and other minority groups.

C4CC

 Project Full Name: Quid-Pro-Quo - Intergenerational Education to Ease Global Climate Change Warming.

Duration: 01.11.2021 to 31.10.2023

Sector: Strategic Partnership for Adult Education Programme: Erasmus Plus - Cooperation for innovation & the exchange of good practices

Project Number: 2021-1-DE02-KA220-ADU-000035090


C4CC aimed to creatively tackle two important societal issues simultaneously – the lack of climate change awareness and the social disengagement experienced by senior citizens after retirement. Calendar for Climate Change allowed seniors to exchange their tacit knowledge with today’s ‘tech-savvy’ digital native population, in return for the technical know-how that younger generations take for granted.


While senior learners helped address younger learners’ need for support and direction in their fight against climate change, young people supported senior learners by introducing them to new and emerging technology platforms that prepared them for and enabled them to engage with the digital transition sweeping across European society. The result was the development of an interactive calendar, featuring training resources that supported the implementation of 12 high-tech climate change solutions and 12 low-tech climate change solutions – one high-tech and one low-tech solution for each month of the year.


Target Audience: Senior citizens and young adults.

Sector: KA3 - Civil society cooperation in the field of Youth

Programme: Erasmus Plus - KA3 Youth

Project Number: ERASMUS-YOUTH-2022-CSC-OG


The project's main aims and goals were related to the EU Youth Strategy and the European Youth Goals, in particular: Connecting EU with Youth, Equality of All Genders, Information & Constructive Dialogue, Space and Participation for All, and Youth Organisations & European Programmes. These were addressed by combating all forms of discrimination and promoting actions that encouraged young people's fair and equal access to opportunities, facilitating their transition to adulthood, including in civic life, at school, and in the world of work.


Each partner country organised an informal school of politics for young women. They were responsible for running schools in their local communities, evaluating, and following up with the participants' satisfaction after each activity. Throughout the activities of Espolitica, the project focused on Engaging, Connecting, and Empowering young women. By providing space, skills, education, and opportunities to network and engage with public authorities, the project promoted active participation in civic life within local communities as well as on national and international levels. Through non-formal education practices, participants learned and implemented new soft skills that were crucial for improving their future employability.

Duration: 01.03.2022 to 01.03.2023

Sector: Small Scale Strategic Partnership for Adult Education

Programme: Erasmus Plus - KA210-ADU - Small-scale partnerships in adult education

Project Number: 2021-2-LT01-KA210-ADU-000051231


The main goal of this project was to involve older people in socially active life by connecting generations. Older people's groups were brought together in various areas of Lithuania, Malta, and Portugal, along with other organisations that helped reach and support older people's target groups.


According to scientific articles, in modern society, older people suffer the consequences of declining social status and lack of respect, so the project sought to involve young people as volunteers, encouraging them to spend their free time more actively and meaningfully while engaging with older generations.


The project also aimed for continuity after its completion. A digital tool – a new website – was created to make it easier for older people who wanted to travel around their country. It allowed them to connect with a volunteer in that country who could spend time with them, show them places of interest, and highlight local attractions. These new connections also had the potential to support the emergence of new businesses.
