Project description

The aim is by exploring the diverse national experiences in supporting disadvantaged groups to introduce an innovative UPthEM training programme to empower employability and employment prospects of disadvantaged people. We would like to focus on these target groups and engage them in a successful career path either as employed or as self-employed entrepreneurs.

The main objectives are to:

1. Elaborate UPthEm training programme for disadvantaged learners.

2. Shot 40 videos with successful motivating stories of disadvantaged people.

3. Train 25 (5 per country) adult educators to implement the programme.

4. Engage 50 adults (10 per country) from disadvantaged groups to explore the benefits of the

programme through online dissemination activities and 5 multiplier events.

The project will target adult educators and adults with disadvantaged backgrounds with special

attention to the unemployed ones.
