Local workshop of NGO educators on competencies
for strengthening social inclusion in Italy
The local workshop took place on July 12, 2022, in Florence, Italy.
The activity increased the competence of 20 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 (30-80), various
nationalities (17 Italians, 2 Moroccans, 1 Kosovar), both sexes (11
women, 9 men), immigrants (2), persons with low-income (11), seniors
with low-income (2), unemployed person (5), persons with different
educational level (higher - 10, professional - 7, basic - 3).
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.
The content of this workshop was aimed at increasing knowledge and
information about social rights and social inclusion in the public
environment, to which the non-governmental organizations contribute.
The legal and operational nature of Coordinamento Toscano
Marginalita made it necessary to discuss during this workshop the
capacity of the network to pursue its goals for social inclusion.
This workshop addressed issues related to providing NGO employees
with the understanding, knowledge and skills to offer support for
the inclusion of each individual, as well as to building capacity of
the association to support the inclusion of such an individual,
while paying particular attention to the disadvantaged groups of
population.
Through informative materials and discussions, CTM educators
Jacopo Lascialfari, Paola Baldinotti, Giorgio Gabriele
and Enrico Palmerini shared their experiences of the situation
within the network and put together proposals that will contribute
to the improvement of the socially inclusive environment and the
inclusion 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
no less than three proposals of the participants were summarized.
