CULTURE OF GIVING AND SOCIAL INCLUSION

This small-scale initiative funded by the Erasmus + programme is designed to contribute to the improvement of the competences of educators and other adult education staff.

The project focuses on the necessity of promoting the culture of giving and social inclusion in our communities and builds the capacity for that.

The project improves the partner organizations’ capacity to collaborate locally and internationally, in order to involve volunteers and their communities in experiences that can enhance and promote the culture of giving and social inclusion, through the co-design and implementation of social crowdfunding initiatives.

The initiative puts focus on the culture of giving and social inclusion.

It supports the implementation of a short training course for 30 participants in Bulgaria and another 30 from Italy. Within the course, the participants will enhance their knowledge regarding the concept and impact of crowdfunding campaigns and the culture of giving. The course participants will build skills to design, organization, management and evaluation of crowdfunding campaigns.

The project generates results in 3 main aspects:

• Improved capacity of the partners to organize campaigns involving volunteers and local community members;
• Enhanced understanding and acknowledgement of the local community regarding social initiatives and crowdfunding campaigns;
• Built skills of the course participants to independently organize crowdfunding campaigns.
