"The project ""PartESDD - Partnership for transnational ESD and Degrowth education"" develops high-quality, innovative and culturally sensitive educational material in the field of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) and Degrowth Education. It thus enriches the non-formal education landscape, especially in the partner countries Poland, the Czech Republic and Germany. The overall outreach is expanded by the availability of some materials also in English language, allowing for its use in a much broader area. PartESDD achieves impact on several levels: It enables the four partner organisations to cooperate intensively and on a long-term basis, which contributes to strengthening the European network. Within the thematic area of sustainability and degrowth, the project supports an intensified exchange of experience and good practice, also between educational actors and activists, with the aim of further qualification, professionalization and networking. It enriches the educational landscape in this area with innovative components through concrete offers, especially in the Czech Republic where such offers are hardly available. In particular, the project aims at better addressing target groups that have hardly been reached so far, especially in rural areas. At the societal level, the Strategic Partnership contributes to effective action for climate justice, environmental protection and social justice in the partner countries and throughout Europe. To achieve these goals, PartESDD provides for a combination of closely interlinked activities. Two intellectual outputs are an essential result of the project: Based on methods from previous projects of the partners from Germany and Poland, the partners are preparing the first Czech language METHODOLOGICAL HANDBOOK on ESD and Degrowth Education. It is the result of a participatory and collective process of review, testing, selection and a culturally sensitive adaptation to the needs of educational work in the Czech Republic. The MANUAL ""ESD and Degrowth Education in Intercultural Contexts"" explains for the first time systematically and in an easily understandable way which particularities with regard to methodology, facilitation and language use have to be taken into account in culturally sensitive educational work in the field of sustainability education. Two five-day learning, teaching and training activities make decisive contributions to the participatory development of these intellectual achievements. At the same time, they are ideal opportunities for competence development through learning from each other and transnational networking among educators and activists. Multiplier events in each partner country make more than 100 people aware of the project results and make an important contribution to their dissemination. Regular management meetings guarantee a professional project implementation and an intensive exchange between the partners. The project is primarily aimed at experts in non-formal education and youth work as well as activists in the fields of ESD, Degrowth Education and social-ecological transformation from Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic. They are multipliers who implement educational work as trainers, facilitators, youth education officers and teachers, or are activists for social improvements. The contexts of their commitment are diverse, and some of the activists are themselves still young people. Young people benefit from PartESDD in a number of ways: some through active involvement in project activities, others through increased visibility of their concerns such as climate justice and environmental protection and the increased availability of materials. Persons who have not been interested in the topics so far benefit from a qualitatively and quantitatively improved non-formal education offer in the field of ESD and Degrowth Education, which underlines their social relevance. For dissemination, the partners can count on a diverse network of partners that complement each other well. Especially the active involvement of representatives of the target group in the development of intellectual outputs ensures a high degree of ownership and willingness to disseminate the results. Especially in the long-term educational work of the partners, e.g. in the form of transnational youth encounters and trainings, there are countless direct opportunities to apply and disseminate the project results. Furthermore, the practical use also provides impulses for revisions and continuous further development of the materials and follow-up projects based on them. The four project partners form a ""network of neighbours"": a cooperation between neighbouring countries that is enriched by the differences of framing conditions but at the same time minimizes the ecological footprint of project-related travel due to its geographical proximity, provides sustainable networking of target groups and offers the best conditions for future joint project."
