After the completion of ASSESMENT of this Activity we will follow it up with further activities in this area, with present and new partners. We invited a particular European PARTNERS from different cultural and social settings in order to maximally enhance international dimension of our activities. Particular vision we want to promote is increased international visibility of LLL activities taking place in Latvia already for decades, activities which are conducted not only directly by our organization, but also in cooperating with our local and regional networks. Our partners are successful in education work, volunteering and assistance to people with lesser opportunities. We have regularly been taking part in Educational conferences and seminars and training workshops and through these events we saw other successful organizations with same problems and needs. Observing parallel directions in our educational methodology, seeing common needs and shared emphasis on trainers education as well as interest in developing ICT competency among our staff, we decided to start cooperating with those organizations in order to increase the quality LLL education within frame of Erasmus Plus. Our organizations have a common focus on adult education and active social involvement and inclusion as active and positive members of society. We firmly believe in its BENEFITS: the truth is that Europe needs its active citizens and their contribution. Failure to educate and employ not only lowers growth today. It also threatens it tomorrow. With help of this training program and our cooperation we will be able to offer new creative approaches and solutions for educational challenges in 21st century Europe.
