Grundtvig Multilateral co-operation projects aimed at improving adult education systems
and network projects (centralised)institutions/organisations from different participating countries working together, pooling knowledge and experience, in order to achieve concrete and innovative results/products with indisputable European value. In many cases, this will involve piloting experiences in strategic areas and producing teaching products of high quality. These projects also seek to strengthen the European dimension in the field of adult learning.
following activities may be supported:•Improving the content and delivery of adult education,•Improving adult education at a system/policy level,•Improving the accessibility of learning opportunities for adults•Improving the management of adult learning
Grundtvig learning partnerships (decentralised)
Small-scale co-operation activities between organisations working in the field of adult education in the broadest sense. Compared to the Grundtvig multilateral co-operation projects, which are more ‘product’ – or outcome-oriented, the partnerships focus more on process, and aim to broaden the participation of smaller organisations that want to include European cooperation in their education activities.
In a Grundtvig Learning Partnership trainers and learners from at least three participating countries work together on one or more topics of common interest to the co-operating organisations. This exchange of experiences, practices and methods contributes to an increased awareness of the varied European cultural, social and economic scene, and to a better understanding of areas of common interest.
Grundtvig learning partnershipsThe following activities may be supported:
• Partner meetings and seminars between all institutions involved in the Partnership • Exchanges of staff and adult learners involved in project activities • Exchanges of experience and good practice, by all appropriate means and in
particular using information and communication technology (e.g. websites, e-mail, video-conferencing)
• Making of technical objects, drawings and arts objects related to the project • Fieldwork, project research, etc. • Preparation of performances (e.g. theatre plays, musicals, etc.) • Linguistic preparation for persons involved in the partnership to ensure they
possess the necessary competence in the working language(s) of the partnership • Co-operation with other projects in related subject areas (including Grundtvig
Networks) sharing experience with other institutions in the region, etc., including mobility to network events, if relevant
• Self-evaluation activities • Organisation of exhibitions, production and dissemination of information material or
documentation on the co-operation activities • Dissemination of project experience and outcomes
