23.06.2023. Florence, Italy
Local workshop of NGO educators on competencies
for advocacy of vulnerable people in Italy
The local workshop was implemented in 23 June 2023 in Florence,
Italy, by partner Coordinamento Toscano Marginalita, led by
Jacopo Lascialfari, Director, Project Manager.
The activity increased the competence of 21 NGO educators in the
field of social inclusion. The target group of this activity was NGO
educators - staff, experts and volunteer specialists with various
ages (30-59), Italian nationality (20), both sexes (13 women, 8
men), a homeless person (1), persons with low-income (17), persons
with different educational level (higher - 18 , professional - 1,
elementary - 2). However, every target group member's level of
education and previous experience in promoting non-formal adult
education are key determinants for them to participate and expand
their knowledge in this activity, then pass on their knowledge to
the members of their organization, especially to the most vulnerable
people.
This workshop was aimed at increasing knowledge and information
about competencies for advocacy of vulnerable people in Italy. The
participants discussed the capacity of network organizations to
pursue their goals for advocacy of vulnerable groups of population.
Through informative materials and discussions, CTM educators
Jacopo Lascialfari, Novella Paparozzi, Paola
Baldinotti and Francesco Annibali shared their
experiences of the situation within the association and put together
proposals that will contribute to the improvement of the socially
inclusive environment and the advocacy process. This workshop also
provided an opportunity to involve in the discussion the
participants with less experience in the programs offered by
Erasmus+ and in the context of the European dimension. Attracting
educated professionals to the NGO network will be an important tool
for increasing people's well-being in Italy.
At the end of this workshop, the results achieved were evaluated and
a proposals of the participants was fixed.
