    << Objectives >>This project aims to train and empower youth workers to prepare young migrants to critically question and evaluate information disseminated through digital media by combining digital, information and media literacy with critical thinking techniques and the behavioural model of Tiny Habits. This strengthens the role of youth workers in building the resilience of democratic societies against disinformation through collaborative strategies, while contributing to migrants’ inclusion.<< Implementation >>The project unfolds in three phases. In the first phase, youth workers are introduced to the project idea and trained on core concepts, which they then apply to gain insights into how to intervene with young migrants in this scope. In the second phase, youth workers and young migrants come together to create the content of an online course. In a third phase, this content is compiled into a freely available course and a handbook is produced for youth workers to prepare them to use this course<< Results >>The main outcome is youth workers' increased competences in dealing with young migrants and their use of digital media. This goal is achieved through the combination of training material for youth workers and an online course that they can use in their daily work, focusing on promoting motivation of target groups to apply these techniques. Main results: Training sessions for youth workers; “Building a Digital World for All” online course, eLearning platform, and handbook for youth workers.

    "The project has developed an innovative and interactive methodology for the dissemination of CSR in European secondary schools. The rationale behind the project is that the CSR has been identified by the EU institutions and the 2000 Lisbon European Council as a strategic development driver. If CSR is so crucial for the sustainable development of the EU, it is important to make citizens and entrepreneurs aware of this issue. Students are a key objective because they are the entrepreneurs and actors of tomorrow's society. The project has created a transnational network of secondary schools, responsible companies, public bodies and other representatives of three regions of Italy, Austria and Slovenia with a similar socio-economic structure. The partnership monitored the dissemination of CSR principles and training needs in the territories involved and published the regional and transnational report: "" CSR in class: the spreading of CSR in secondary schools and their territories "" (O1). Starting from the training needs identified by this study, a basic e-learning course on CSR for schoolteachers was developed (O2: Virtual Learning Environment for teachers of secondary school). All the teachers who participated in the project (31 teachers) had to attend the e-learning course. After the training the partners approved the regulation of the intellectual output O3: CSR contest for schools. On the basis of the transnational O1 report, the partnership has chosen the common theme of the competition: the objective 12 of the sustainable development objectives adopted by the United Nations in 2015. Obviously, the theme was declined in three specific themes in each country, depending on the associated partner that proposed the case study. In each country, three winning projects were selected that were illustrated with a power point presentation in English during the LTTA. The transnational and community dimension of the project was also ensured by learning, teaching and training activities: students and teachers and staff visited schools and businesses and participated in workshops and cultural visits with the aim of learning about some good CSR practices and understand the social and economic context in which they are located. Furthermore, participation in the LTTAs was an important opportunity to strengthen the network between students, teachers and project partners and create a transnational community sensitive to CSR issues. The teachers shared the experience of the CSR IN CLASS project with other teachers on the E-twinning portal. After the end of the LTTA, the teachers helped the students prepare their Europass CVs.The project, coordinated by Unioncamere del Veneto, involved 6 partners: 3 social partners / public bodies: Veneto Region (Italy), Brainplus (Austria) and RAGOR Development Agency (Slovenia) and 3 secondary schools M. Fanno (Italy), B HAK Mürzzuschlag (Austria) and Ekonomska gimnazija in srednja šola Radovljica (Slovenia)."

    "<< Background >>Even if CSR is part of the EU Agenda since the Strategy of Lisbona in 2000, CSR+ (Corporate Social Responsibility, Sustainable business and Social Innovation) is little known by students of secondary schools and often it's not inserted in the scholastic program, so teachers and students need activities and instruments to learn CSR+ principles.Students, that are the future workers and Entrepreneurs, must be conscious of the key importance of Corporate Social Responsibility, Sustainable business and Social Innovation (CSR+) and prepared to deal with it. Unfortunately, in the schools in general and specifically in the schools partners of the project CSR+ are not subjects in the curricula of study. So the project aim is to spread Corporate Social Responsibility, Sustainable business and Social Innovation in schools and to do that in EU perspective by stimulating the creation of permanent European, other than local, network among schools, social partners and enterprises, trough co-operation in the activities of the project, in particular PR1 – “CSR+ EU report”, PR2 – “CSR+ Virtual Learning Environment (VLE)”, PR3 – CSR+ Virtual Contest Environment (VCE).<< Objectives >>CSR IN CLASS+ has the objective to capitalize the experience of “CSR IN CLASS” – a Strategic Partnership established in 2017 and finished in 2019 – in order to continue and improve the development of secondary schools students’ skills and abilities, as well as the debate, regarding entrepreneurship and Corporate Social Responsibility, through innovative methods, procedures and tools. Together with this objective, CSR IN CLASS+ aims at giving to the students useful instruments and competences to successfully enter in the labour market: the project intends to prepare future workers and entrepreneurs with a European CSR approach.The concrete objectives of the CSR IN CLASS+ project are:- the spreading of CSR+ principles in the secondary schools- the exchange of best practices and the development of a network between schools, institutions and enterprises to spread CSR+ principles in the territories- the strengthening of the relationship between schools and industry through the involvement of the enterprises associated partners in the activities of the project and in the contest- the creation of CSR+ training paths that are the results of the cooperation between schools andindustries- the promotion of CSR+ principles in productive systems- the orientation of young people into the labour market with a social sustainability approachThe project will be the capitalization of the pilot action represented by the previous Strategic Partnership, with explicit purpose of improving its transferability in the future to other schools, in order to reach a more and more wide number of teachers and students.<< Implementation >>The project will spread ""CSR+"" - intended as Corporate Social Responsibility, Social Innovation and Sustainable Business Modelling - in Italian, Austrian, Slovenian and German schools and will do that in a EU perspective by stimulating the creation of permanent European, other than local, network among schools, social partners and enterprises, trough co-operation in the activities of the project and in the production of transferable web-based outputs with EU added value (CSR+ Virtual Learning Environment, CSR+ Virtual Contest Environment).The Work Plan is composed by 5 WorkPackages. Along with the ongoing WP0 Project Management and Administration, the operations are breakdown into 4 interrelated technical activities, respectively aimed at: updating the CSR in Class regional and EU reports, consistently with the evolution of the CSR concept (CSR+: from sharing to caring paradigma, social innovation, sustainable business) including subjects related to: sustainable business modelling, social innovation, social impact oriented product design, hybrid and dual goal organisations (WP1); re-design the innovative training path creating learning units for a self-paced online training course with gamified learning outcomes’ testing (WP2); involving companies in Alternating education, allowing students to “alternate” periods of training in the classroom and short-terms internships inside companies or other hosting establishments, celebrating a CSR+ Contest among students in order to award the students team providing highest quality inputs for hosting company (WP3); assessment of the social impact generated and dissemination of the project outputs at local and international level, promoting the use of the innovative tools and spreading out the key messages of the project (WP4).<< Results >>In brief the outputs will be:- the setting of a study to identify the spreading on CSR+ (Corporate Social Responsibility, Sustainable business and Social Innovation) among institutions, enterprises, consumers, schools and training needs of secondary schools in CSR+ and entrepreneurship at EU level (not only the countries participating to the project);- the updating of the present Virtual Learning Environment on corporate social responsibility that will offer teachers of secondary schools training paths on CSR+ (Corporate Social Responsibility, Sustainable business and Social Innovation) with the aim of increase their knowledge to transfer them to their students.- the creation of a Virtual Contest Environment dedicated to EU CSR+ Contest coordination and realization by schools from Italy, Germany, Slovenia and Austria. The contest will stimulate students to deepen their knowledge about CSR+ and implement it in the entrepreneurial sector by stimulating their practical approach to labour market with concrete approaches (B Impact Assessment, Social Business Model Canvas)CSR IN CLASS+ platform, will contain Virtual Learning Environment (CSR+ VLE) as well as Virtual Contest Environment (CSR+ VCE), and will allow the exchange of best practices analysed in the contest in schools and study material, putting the bases for the construction of a community of practices.In this way, CSR IN CLASS+ will not only support the spreading of CSR+ principles in the secondary schools but it will also stimulate the construction of relationship between schools and enterprises and among schools, enterprises and PA at international level. The project will be the capitalization of the pilot action represented by the previous Strategic Partnership, with explicit purpose of improving its transferability in the future to other schools, in order to reach a more and more wide number of teachers and students"
