The present partnership aims at creating new and more engaging ways to foster senior citizens’ digital skills and media and Information literacy -MIL, to increase their ability to defend themselves from ‘different virtual dangers’ (fake news, online scams, ‘fishing’) while empowering them in using ICT tools with confidence in every aspect of their life (government, social media, music and video in streaming…)
Empirical research shows that when School Wide Positive Behaviour Support is implemented systematically and with fidelity for at least 2-3 consecutive years, behavioral problems decrease (20 – 60%), student achievement improves, school climate becomes more positive and safer among children and staff, bullying behaviour decreases, and student social competence improves. Through collaboration between ECEC centers and academic institutions in Europe, PBS-ECEC focuses on applying a program-wide approach to promote children’s socioemotional competence in four EU countries (Portugal, Cyprus, Greece, Ireland) under the ERASMUS+ KA2 programme of the European Commission.
The project will serve the basic need of all partners and their respective target groups to effectively address behavior problems from the very early years of children’s education, by building learners’ socioemotional competence to learn in a socially inclusive environment. Such an accomplishment will have multiple benefits in early childhood education and beyond. It will operate as a preventative means of children’s school failure and problem behaviors. The project results will strengthen teacher education and training, and provide evidenced based practices for promoting socioemotional development in ECEC, a crucial dimension in child development and wellbeing, and a transversal domain in all partner countries. By equipping early childhood teachers with skills as the above mentioned, it is anticipated a boost of their professional development and their well-being. In line with the partners’ work and objectives, the project will support them to expand their knowledge and skills in this topic, improve their capacities to learn, collaborate, and better serve their target groups in their respective countries.

Through the climate crisis we are going through, environmental issues are prioritized in the agenda of the European Commission. Moreover, based on research in the partner countries (Slovakia, Italy, Spain & Cyprus) was highlighted that teachers are missing relevant skills, knowledge or more often motivation for climate education. Additionally, students aren’t being prepared to face the effects of climate change or taught to understand the solutions, which in turn leads to an inability to take responsibility for their own impact on the local environment.
The Teaching Green project aims to raise awareness on climate change and support the competences and skills of teachers and students. More specifically, the project aims at strengthening the knowledge and digital skills of teachers and students of 10-16 years old using digital technologies in education and with ICT tools to promote virtual learning and virtual collaboration. Through the development of an Evaluation Toolkit, an Online Training Course and a Best Practice Report, the target groups will benefit from receiving innovative and quality training, preparing them with critical thinking for fostering the environmental behaviour of individuals, pointing out the necessity of lowering our impact on climate and support a sense of social responsibility for local environment.
GoSport is a European project aiming to encourage social inclusion and equal opportunities by improving good governance in sports. In order to contribute to the improvement of good governance in sports organizations in Greece, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus and Italy, GoSport aims at:
CARDET, via its GoSport project, organized and delivered a series of workshops to representatives of sport organizations on CSR in Sport.
The three workshops were based on the Training Programme developed by the project and were delivered using non-formal participatory approaches. Participants, were given an introduction on CSR and its key aspects and its interrelation with sport. Furthermore, the trainers highlighted the important role sport organizations can play, via actions -initiatives and programmes- in addressing social issues and challenges. Most importantly, they provided them with a thorough illustration of the necessary steps they can take to formulate CSR programmes in their own organization.
The participants were also asked to review, evaluate and provide feedback on the eLearning Platform of the project that can be found here
The GoSport project has a duration of two years and is implemented in Greece, Bulgaria, Italy, Croatia and Cyprus by KMOP – Social Action and Innovation Centre (Project Coordinatior), Bulgarian Sports Development Association, CESIE, IDOP and CARDET. For more information about the project, visit their website.
In order to contribute to the improvement of good governance in sports organisations, the GoSport project has developed a comprehensive guide aiming at enhancing the capacities and awareness of sports clubs/organisations, professional and semi-professional sport teams and clubs on implementing good governance principles through social responsibility.
The GoSport guide provides the necessary information on how sports organisations interpret, manage and prioritise social responsibility issues – especially in terms of combating violence, tackling racism, discrimination and intolerance, and encouraging social inclusion and equal opportunities – how organisational governance influences social responsibility and how social responsibility is communicated within the organisations. Furthermore, this Guide provides tools to for-profit and non-profit sports organisations for understanding the relationships among the organisations, its stakeholders and society, and integrating socially responsible organisational governance practices.
If you work in the sport industry and you want to improve your knowledge on how to promote a more inclusive society through CSR activities, download the GoSport guide here.

GoSport, an Erasmus+ Sport project that CARDET participates in, has released a transnational report on the CSR initiatives and actions of sport organizations in Greece, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Italy and Croatia take.
The report puts forward a comparative analysis of the findings of the implementing partners in their countries. It reviews and analyses the work and actions sport organizations undertake to address social issues and challenges as well as the knowledge, perceptions and views of representatives of sport organizations in the field
