The ACT4DYS ePortfolio was successfully piloted among youth workers, young people, and young persons with disabilities in Belgium, Cyprus, Ireland, Spain, and Portugal.
The piloting phase aimed to test, review, and validate the ACT4DYS ePortfolio ahead of its final launch, ensuring that its content, accessibility, usability, and relevance meet the needs of its target groups and align with the project’s objectives on disability-inclusive and sustainable urban development.
More specifically, the pilot sought to evaluate the quality of the ePortfolio’s content, its accessibility features, and overall user-friendliness, assessing its effectiveness in promoting inclusive and sustainable city practices. It also aimed to validate the innovative and replicable nature of the featured case studies across diverse contexts, while gathering structured feedback from different target groups to inform further improvements.
The initial goal was to engage 125 participants in the piloting process. This target was exceeded, with a total of 132 participants taking part: 55 youth workers, 43 young people, and 34 persons with disabilities.
Overall, the ePortfolio was very well received. Participants expressed high levels of satisfaction and provided positive feedback on its content and approach. At the same time, valuable suggestions were shared, particularly regarding further enhancements to accessibility. The ACT4DYS consortium will integrate as many of these improvements as possible prior to the official launch of the ePortfolio, reinforcing its commitment to inclusivity and user-centred design.
