Case Abstract

The Progetto E-Inclusion aims to support, through the use of new technologies, the integration and inclusion of disadvantaged Italian students, focusing especially on disable ones. The main objectives of the project are: reducing the phenomenon of abandoning school among the disadvantaged students; promoting and supporting the awareness towards the “assisted technologies” (tools that allows to overcome conditions of disadvantage and access to information and services offered by ICT); defining a methodology in the implementation of educational projects that use technology; optimizing the implementation and utilization of special tools, making the schools financed by the project to loan (for free) these tools to other schools either to the local supporting centers created by the Ministry of Education as part of the “New technologies and disability”; making “portable” the best practices, as an important tool for the entire school community.

    Socio-economic inclusion of youth at risk of exclusion survey

    30 August 2010 | 1483 Visits | Rating: 4.3 (maximum:5)
    The Tavistock Institute in London together with Arcola Research LLP, London are carrying out a survey of initiatives of projects doing work in the field of ICT-based initiatives for the socio-economic inclusion of youth at risk of exclusion. .The survey aims to give us (and ultimately the European Commission) an understanding of:

    The kind of initiatives implemented

    The approach used to support young people excluded or at risk of exclusion

    Success factors, and problems encountered

    The outcomes and impacts associated with the initiative

     

    A key output of the survey will be a publication showcasing ‘Good Practices’ involving ICTs for at risk and excluded young people, to be published by the European Commission.

     

    We also aim to present the first results and key findings at the International conference on "e-Inclusion of Youth at Risk: INCLUSO" (Leuven 13-14 September 2010, http://www.incluso.org/). This conference will gather many stakeholders, practitioners and policymakers and is a perfect place to present and exchange the results of this survey, as well as an opportunity for you to showcase the work of your own project.

    We would like to know if we can transfer your contact email to the organizers of the conference. This will not degenerate into spam as the organizers will contact you only once in order to send you appropriate information produced by the conference. Thanks in advance. 

      

     We are therefore asking if you could complete a short questionnaire on your project  by clicking on the link below. https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Z7X7XQZ

     

    We would be delighted if you could provide us with an answer  as your best convenience but not later than  the 6th of September  if possible .  

     

    If you have any questions, please email me

    We very much look forward to hearing from you
