Train2Validate Project will take place over the next three years through a consortium composed by seven partners from five European Union countries and led by the Spanish social organization Plena Inclusión Madrid.
Train2Validate Project has been selected in the Erasmus + KA203 call for its relevance in helping to reduce inequalities in access to formal education by promoting innovative practices from a social point of view. The project aims to create the professional profile of easy-to-read validator and facilitator and the development of training products for validating and improving easy-to-read materials.
Plena Inclusión Madrid, a Spanish social organization that works to improve the quality of life of people with intellectual or developmental disabilities, leads this project in which six organization from five European Union countries also take part: the universities SDI Múnich (Germany) and SSML Pisa (Italy), specialized in translation and interpretation, and the Timisoara Polytechnic University (Romania) through its translators’ school of telecommunications and business communication; the social organizations Zavod RISA (Slovenia), which works with people with intellectual disabilities, and Fundatia Professional (Romania), specialized in education with people in social exclusion risk; and the company ECQA (Austria), a certifier of European professional profiles, compose the consortium.
During the development of the project, it is planned to become half of a dozen of high impact and transferability intellectual products through five events aimed to bring Train2Validate outcomes out in the local environments of each partner.
In short, “Train2Validate” aims that validators and facilitators of easy-to-read methodology get an academic recognition and a common curriculum certificated on a European scale.
