From Digital Gaps to Green Impact

From Digital Gaps to Green Impact

“From Digital Gaps to Green Impact: Transforming Adult Education for a Sustainable Future” is a short-term mobility project in the field of Adult Education (KA122-ADU), coordinated by InnovEdu Nexus Institut e.V. (Germany).

The project was originally planned for an 18-month implementation period from 01.06.2025 to 30.11.2026. The implemented mobility activities were successfully completed within approximately 14 months, while the project remained subject to the conditions and duration of the approved Grant Agreement.

The project supported the development of digital competences, green skills and inclusive educational practices through Erasmus+ mobility activities implemented in cooperation with partner organisations in Finland and Croatia.

The completed activities involved adult education staff and registered adult learners, providing opportunities for professional development, international cooperation, intercultural exchange and lifelong learning. The mobility activities also contributed to the creation of Open Educational Resources (OER) focusing on digital education, inclusion, accessibility, sustainability and green skills in adult education.

All participants were formally registered either as adult education staff involved in the organisation’s educational activities or as registered adult learners of InnovEdu Nexus Institut e.V., in accordance with Erasmus+ Programme requirements.

Final Project Status

The project consists of four mobility activities:

Implemeted Activities

• Job-shadowing (Finland)
  Adult education staff observed institutional practices related to digital transformation, sustainability and inclusive learning environments.
  Implemented: 02.10.2025 – 08.10.2025 (including travel days)

• Short-term Learning Mobility of Adult Learners (Croatia)
  Registered adult learners participated in a structured learning programme aimed at strengthening digital literacy and green competences.
  Originally planned in Poland, the activity was carried out in Croatia.
  Implemented: 18.01.2026 – 29.01.2026 (including travel days)

Not Implemented:

• Spain – Assignment/Teaching.

  This activity formed part of the originally approved Erasmus+ project plan.

  Following a review of project implementation priorities and organisational considerations during the project period, this activity was not implemented.

• Latvia – Group Mobility.
  This activity formed part of the originally approved Erasmus+ project plan.

  Following an internal review of the project’s implementation approach and future commitments, the activity was not implemented.

Project Results: Learning Outcomes on EPALE

As part of the completed mobility activities, participants developed learning outcomes and Open Educational Resources published on EPALE. So far, 8 learning outcome resources have been published: 4 resulting from the job-shadowing mobility in Finland and 4 resulting from the short-term learning mobility in Croatia.
