Brief description:  Inclusi-ON is a project aimed at promoting education, training and inclusive youth, testing the possibilities offered by non-formal education in the creation of devices of social inclusion, giving rise to new training programs, methodologies and to a new discourse on the subject as a whole. The objectives of the project are:

.- To promote the field of educational leisure time as a space for social inclusion.

.- To train youth leaders and young people to carry put initiatives to incorporate competencies, values, capacity and methodologies that promote social inclusion through educational leisure time.

.- To adapt youth and education programs to new challenges and, in particular, to work with migrants and refugees.

.- To map good practices, methodologies, and training activities to promote these processes of inclusion.

- To reach this goal, we propose to develop a) local seminars to diagnose needs and challenges and work locally what has been shared at an European level during the transnational meetings between the partner, b) a transnational seminar to rank these needs c) a training to incorporate skills and competencies in non-formal education, d)a transnational meeting to elaborate a good practice guide that pick up the reflection process carried out during the project. Inclusi-ON will end with a multiplier event that will bring together European and local officials to show the results and achievements of the project.

The project is addressed at a) teachers and trainers of the Educational Leisure Time Schools and Degree in Social education, b) technician staff/managers/policymakers who work with young people, c) educational institutions, d) citizenship, e) young people and, specifically, to those who are in a situation of exclusion or vulnerability.
