The goals of the project are as follows:
1) developing tools for intervention work (toolbox) based on the concept of Empowerment (emphasizing increased control over life, self-confidence, and social integration in recipients of aid activities) for employees of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) working with marginalized and socially excluded people, and academic teachers educating future educators and social workers,
2) shaping competencies/skills in the field of DPA (Developing the Power to Act) in training participants (both NGO employees and academic teachers). Project results are to be presented in three English-language scientific articles, as well as at two scientific conferences and an open final seminar.
The project is funded by the National Agency for Academic Exchange (NAWA).
