The partnership of the C.H.A.N.G.E.R.S. project (Exchanging good practices to Change Household Attitudes for a Non-wasteful, Green environment and Energy-consciousness addressing Rural Seniors) held its kick-off meeting on 26 November 2020.
Due to the current pandemic situation, the kick-off event could not be held in person, thus, the partners joined virtually the meeting from four countries to start the work in the project and to consider the potential effects of COVID-19 on the project progress.
According to our conducted desk research, European households have had a steady contribution of approximately 25-27% to the final energy consumption since 1995. Thus, the overall objective of the C.H.A.N.G.E.R.S. project is to exchange the good examples on adult education of the project partners through 4 short-term joint staff trainings covering three main topics: ENERGY EFFICIENCY, RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES and SUSTAINABILITY in HOUSEHOLDS. Although several learning materials are available online in these topics, there are social groups who have little or no chance to gain knowledge in these topics. The best way to accomplish these challenges is to TRAIN THE STAFF MEMBERS OF THE PPS’ ORGANIZATIONS. The outcomes of the project will be the COLLECTION OF GOOD EXAMPLES and a RECOMMENDATION DOCUMENT that serves as a user guide, explaining the ways the adult trainings might be prepared and done for seniors.
The C.H.A.N.G.E.R.S. project main objectives:
- Extend and develop the competences of educators and other personnel who support adult learners.
- Exchange good examples on adult education of the PPs through 4 short-term
- Promote lifelong learning of the staff.
- Promote open access to the main project outcomes.
