ENTER Digital Era

Description

"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."
