Peru, Mexico, and Bolivia, as well as other Latin-American countries, hold a vast and rich documentary and bibliographic collections. Preserving and enhancing those collections are key drivers to highlight the complex process to gather and create them, and to further know and maintain the identity and culture of different peoples. However, most of these collections are not well kept, due partly to the lack of specific skills of personnel in charge of keeping it. This differs from Europe where Universities have developed specific curricula to cover this need, and are actively cooperating with other institutions such as libraries to preserve all the document heritage. Hence, our project CODICIS seeks to design, implement and test a specialization course to preserve and manage heritage documentary collections. CODICIS also intends to create or improve labs at the HEIs to preserve and restore document and archive collections. We have set several specific objectives: - To develop a pedagogical and scientific methodology to analyse and intervene the state of documents and bibliographic collections with heritage content- Knowledge transfer from EU HEIs about preserving bibliographic heritage- Capacity building on criteria to preserve, describe, classify and catalogue documentary and library heritage materials. - Providing equipment to the partner HEIs for the correct preservation and academic use of cultural heritage materialsThe project will last 36 months. It will be coordinated by Universidad Católica San Pablo from Arequipa (Peru), involving other 9 partners from Italy, Spain, Mexico, Peru and Bolivia.

ON - Migration, Inclusion, Integration is a KA2 of Erasmus+ Programme, Capacity Building in the field of Youth which aims to improve the work of NGOs in the field of migration, inclusion and the development of more open and tolerant societies. The project will exponentially improve the social and professional skills of youth workers and, through a wide range of activities based on NFE, aims to initiate a process of personal, professional, social and cultural growth both in the organisations and in all colleagues and target groups directly and indirectly involved by them. The final objective of the project is to train European and Latin American NGOs in the work of their members and volunteers with groups at risk of social exclusion such as migrants. To achieve the objectives we structured a Consortium composed of 2 different universities, an Italian organization with extensive coordination experience, an organization expert in methods of NFE, 4 other organizations with extensive experience working with disadvantaged targets, 1 Ministry of Family and Social Politics from Europe and Latin America, which has as its goal:- Training of organisations, youth workers and users to better address the problems and opportunities arising from migration, together with migrants themselves and local communities; -Support for reflection among participants on the different dimensions of migration and on new and innovative forms of inclusion and integration;- Promotion of a global cooperation among all subjects of the Consortium who are in contact with migratory phenomena;- Application of the contents of formal education programmes to NFE;- Exchange of good practices in the field of youth in relation to international migration, mobility and its influence;-development of new initiatives, at local and international level, in the field of youth and mobility in the framework of Erasmus+, in Europe and in Latin America to offer local immigrants and young people the same opportunities.- Promotion of voluntary activities as a means to encourage and multiply the impact of project activities, tools and materials on disadvantaged people, such as migrants.- Development of a more tolerant, inclusive and egalitarian society;Activities will focus on intercultural dialogue, social inclusion and integration in a global perspective, providing participants with tools to disseminate these values in their local communities, to contribute to the promotion of a more open and tolerant society, offering equal opportunities to all. The goals and objectives will be achieved through the following activities:- Online cooperation meetings;- 1 KOM in Colombia, - 1 coordination meeting between the coordinator and Universities- 1 TC for youth workers in Italy;- Voluntary Activities for 12 volunteers in EU and Latin America;- Local Labs on migration in 6 countries;- Final evaluation seminar + final conference in Mexico- Production and promotion of products on the topic.

SPEED - Social Processes Empowering Entrepreneurship Development aimed to improve entrepreneurial skills of young people with fewer opportunities and promoted and supported their inclusion in the job market, through an extensive set of activities based on Non-Formal Education to start a personal, professional, social and cultural process of growth.To reach the objectives we have structured a Consortium, made up of 2 different University one in Mexico and one in Portugal, an Italian organization with great coordination experience, an expert Estonian organization in non-formal methods and five other organizations with extensive experience in working with disadvantaged youth, from Europe and Latin America, which aimed to:- to train youth workers on Non-Formal Education methods and techniques based on Marketing, Sociology and Economics Theories to support the acquirement of creativity and entrepreneurial skills in young people with fewer opportunity;- to apply contents pertaining to Formal Education schemes into Non-Formal Education systems, activities and contexts;- to promote the acquirement and the improvement of entrepreneurial competencies, communication skills, marketing and creativity in disadvantaged youth;- to create a technological and IT digital system for self-taught learning, based on OER, containing theories and practises on entrepreneurship;- to promote Volunteering Activities as a mean to foster and multiply the impact of project activities, tools and materials on disadvantaged youth.During the project implementation, the two different universities and their departments of Sociology and Economics, cooperated with youth workers to better support and train young people with fewer opportunities, who are facing a lack of opportunities and skills, in entrepreneurship and, to guarantee monitoring and quality to the whole project process.Aims and objectives were reached through the following activities:- Online cooperation between partners;- 1 Kick-Off Meeting + Study Visit in Argentina;-1 Coordination Meeting in Italy, in addition to online cooperation – Study Group Strauss/Universities;- 1 Training Course for Youth Workers in Italy;- Volunteering Activities for 12 Volunteers in EU and Latin America;- Local workshops on social entrepreneurship in 6 countries;- Final evaluation meeting (online).The activities sponsored and powered by the partners of the consortium produced:- An academic study, promoted for publication at international level on “Paper” by the Mexican University;- an E-learning free platform for youth that collects digital contents to support the self-taught learning of young people in relation to Social Entrepreneurship www.speedstrauss.com - A promotional video made out from the experiences of the 12 volunteers involved in volunteering activities.The project suffered from the severe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, but the consortium's countermeasures and good cooperation ensured that the quality of its products and activities was not affected and the achievement of its objectives was not precluded.

"Enter Digital Era promoted a renewed co-operation between European and Latin American countries to improve digitalization of Youth, through improved organizational processes of the NGOs, digital and communication skills of the youth worker and their ability to transfer these to young people of the local communities. The activities, corresponding to the principles of Capacity Building in the Field of Youth, made the NGOs able to reach their targets more effectively. To reach the objectives a mixed Consortium was made up, with 2 different University from Mexico and Turkey, an Italian organization with great coordination experience, an Estonian NGO expert in NFE and five other NGOs with extensive experience in volunteering, from Europe and Latin America, which aimed to:- strengthen the capacity of organizations to better identify and analyze the needs of young people and communities, promoting innovation in methods of research and the integration of these with the digital- stimulate cooperation and promote synergies between the NGOs working in youth sector and those active in the fields of education and training- improve the skills and digital competences of youth workers so to innovate working methods, effectiveness, approach to the target audience, evaluation and monitoring of their work- improve the online presence of the Partners, through know-how transfer with regard to the creation of communication strategies, web and social media strategies promote the digital and technological literacy of the young people as target group of the NGOs involved- offer training and learning opportunities on the digital to youth and youth workers and guarantee on the same subjects opportunities for mobility.Aims and objectives were reached through the following activities:- Online cooperation between partners- 1 Kick Off Meeting in Colombia- 2 Coordination Meeting in Turkey and Italy - Study Group Strauss/Universities- 1 TC for Youth Workers- EVS for 12 Volunteers in EU and Latin America- Local workshops to digitalize Youth and communities in 6 countries- Final evaluation seminar + final conference in MexicoNGOs have been successfully trained on digital resources and strategies for No-Profit, learning new and different skills on the field, instruments and tools that they are already using to reach their target group. In addition, they have benefited from the exchange of skills and experience with other Partners. The Organisations were able to draw on the experience and scientific methods proposed by the Universities in the field of needs analysis. The Universities themselves have experienced a different and new perspective on learning through Non-Formal Education, so much so that they have decided to engage in other projects and initiatives in the field of Erasmus+ Youth. The young people who have participated in the Voluntary Activities have been able to live a formative and intercultural experience, full of a learning of personal, social, professional skills. For many of them, the experience of volunteering in such a different context from their own has been life-changing. The young people and local communities included in the Capacity Building activities were able to experience a world of opportunities that they were not aware of, through digital local workshops.The activities that the partners of the consortium sponsored as well as a promotional video about the project and a paper-study on the impact of the same on young people and the communities, produced:- a study paper on academic contents of which the Mexican University was promoter for publication at an international level;- a ""T-Kit – Non Formal methods to digitalize Youth Work"" to support NGOs and Youth Worker in their work- an Open Content Platform of free training contents, www.enterdigitalera.com, such as guides on the digital and opportunities for and interexchange of volunteers and projects of international mobility."

The project aims to contribute to the improvement of the employability indexes and the labor insertion of the graduates of the higher education institutions of the countries of the Pacific Alliance (Mexico, Colombia, Peru and Chile), through permanent monitoring and analysis. Needs and characteristics of the labor market and the construction of national guidelines and policies that contribute to the creation of a relevant training offer and the strengthening of the academic programs offered by HEIs in the participating countries.
