On 14-15 November in Warsaw, the eighth Adult Education Forum organised by the Foundation for the Development of the Education System and the EPALE National Office took place. The event brings together experts, practitioners and all those involved in adult education. The Forum aims to analyse best practices and reflect together on how adult education can be more accessible and effective, regardless of age, skills and individual predispositions, abilities or needs of the audience.
During this year's event, our Association had the opportunity to present activities carried out as part of the EL-Practice project, i.e. activities aimed at engaging young adults and increasing their knowledge in the field of energy and climate protection. Anna Fijas - Project Manager at PNEC - began her speech by introducing the participants to the definition of energy literacy and basic information about the project. However, the entire presentation focused on the interactive e-course, which is being developed together with project partners from Austria, Croatia, Greece and Slovenia. All the activities carried out during the first months of the project provided the basis for the creation of suitably adapted course content.
Easily accessible on a mobile platform, the e-course will be an excellent tool for promoting and shaping changes in habits among young people, related to efficient energy use, leading to cooperation for a more sustainable Europe.
The event was an excellent opportunity not only to present the activities of the El-Practice project, but also to gain new knowledge and also to make valuable contacts, share experiences and build a community of adult educators.
We would like to encourage you to familiarise yourself with the materials developed within the framework of the project's first result, i.e. the report on competences among young adults. All materials are available on the project website in Polish and English as well as in the other national languages of the partners.
More about the project can be found on the El-Practice website: http://www.el-practice.eu/en/.
