Third EIFNEG project meeting in Timisoara

At the end of November, the partners of the project EIFNEG: Emotional Intelligence as a Foundation for the Educational and Personal Development of the New European Generation gathered for the third international meeting in Timisoara, Romania. Communication was also re-established with the Portuguese partner ASDPESO, whose representatives attended the project consortium meeting online. The first project result is now almost complete and once finalised, the materials from this result will be translated from English into all partner languages (Czech, Romanian, Spanish and Portuguese). The main topic of this meeting was the second project result. It was necessary to carefully go through all the planned steps, to check what has already been created and to ensure the continuity and usefulness of these upcoming materials, which has been done and now the partners can start working on the materials. The Portuguese partner should already be fully involved in the production of this project result, taking over two of the key areas. The next meeting is scheduled for May next year in Granada, Spain.

Kick-off meeting of the SoFarm – Supporting Social and Inclusive Agriculture project

On 15th and 16th November 2022, the Erasmus+ project "So Farm - Support of Social and Inclusive Farming" held its kick off meeting at the Impact Hub in Prague. The aim of the project, which is financially supported by the Erasmus+ programme, is to gain and exchange experience in the development of social farms and, last but not least, to increase awareness of social farm entrepreneurship as such. The meeting was attended by all foreign project partners from Germany, Poland, Slovakia and Italy. For the Czech Republic, IEPS is involved in the project as an experienced creator of educational outputs and organisation named SoFarm that supports local social farmers. At the kick-off meeting, the individual partners presented their organisation and planned the different phases of the project together. In particular, we discussed the design of the first deliverable, the Condition paper, which will aim to map the situation of social farms in each country through workshops and interviews with experts, including identifying the challenges faced by each country. This initial survey of social farms should be the starting point for further outputs, which will be case studies, educational materials and short videos. During the second day of the meeting, there was space for a visit to a social farm, namely the Community Garden Pastviny z.s., which employs socially disadvantaged people. The foreign partners
