Social Connections
TRAINERS FOR E-SOCIAL ​
Curated by Gitte Pedersen
Across Europe, millions of younger and older persons with mobility impairment due to illness, age or disability or with immunodeficiency are restrained every day, often together with their informal carers, in their opportunities of social interaction and engagement in meaningful activities outside their homes.
​
As clearly showed during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, online technologies could be exploited to provide social support and a sense of belonging. The specific goal of the SOCIAL CONNECTIONS project will be to develop digital pedagogical competences of C-VET educators in the social sector, enabling them to teach to their students how to develop and use high quality digital content for social inclusion of clients which are housebound because of disability, illness or COVID-19 related restrictions.
