Last month, our SIE4P.Inc project had its International Conference. It took place on the 4 October 2024, in Cyprus!

The conference gathered over 150 participants, including 8 experts in the field of Education for Social Innovation and Special Education, from 5 countries of the European Union (Cyprus, Greece, Ireland, Romania, France), as well as various organisations, public bodies and professionals working in the field of inclusion and Special Education.

The conference successfully managed to:
⭐️present the research and results developed from our project which are offered free of charge to our communities, through the project's interactive handbooks
⭐️create fertile ground for an open constructive dialogue between decision-makers and the public, exchange valuable knowledge and practices, through open panel discussions
⭐️create future opportunities for networking and synergies at local and European level for future initiatives and projects aimed at creating inclusive schools and societies regarding people with disabilities and Additional Educational Needs.
🟢 Thank you to everyone who participated and made this happen!
🟢Stay tuned for the final material that is currently being developed, and will be available for free on our website!

From our SIE4P.Inc project an inspiring story from the partner at Scoala Numarul 9 in Bucharest and their social innovation project called: "A Smile for Everyone"! 😊🍎

Located in one of the poorest sectors of Bucharest, the students recognized the urgent financial struggles of their peers and took action. They spoke to their classmates, identified their needs, and decided to make a difference by fundraising to buy food for those in need.

But they didn't stop there! Their efforts extended beyond the school walls, attracting support from local businesses and setting a powerful example for the community.
10 students together with 2 teachers decided to raise as much money as possible to buy and donate food to colleagues with exceptional situations.

This initiative not only provided immediate relief but also mobilized the community to come together and support each other.
Together, we are making a difference, one smile at a time. 🌟💪

“I was emotional and had tears in my eyes. We wanted to succeed!” - student feedback

Sharing news from our SIE4P.Inc project and the Romanian team at Scoala Numarul 9 who has created the social innovation project "First Aid"! 🚑📚

Facing a pressing issue of medical emergencies in classrooms, the students and staff took action to ensure every classroom has a first aid kit. With the guidance of school medical personnel, they learned essential first aid skills, identified funding sources, and garnered support from the local community.

The goal? By the end of the next school year, every class will have its own first aid kit, and maintaining these kits will be an ongoing effort. This initiative not only solves a critical problem but also empowers students with practical medical self-care skills. 🩹✨

A huge thank you to the families and community members who supported this project. We've learned that collaboration makes us stronger and that trusting and empowering our AEN students leads to amazing results! 👏🏼🎉

Sharing exciting News from our SIE4P.Inc project🌟

We are thrilled to announce that our research paper as part of the SIE4P.Inc project, presented at the prestigious EDULEARN24 Conference, has been officially included in the conference's proceedings! 🎉

Our research explored the transference of the Social Innovation Education (SIE) model into special – already successfully applied in mainstream education – into special education systems across five European countries: France, Greece, Ireland, Cyprus, and Romania. Key findings of our research revealed a critical need for educational programs that enhance social and civic competences in students with Additional Educational Needs (AEN), enabling them to co-create social innovation actions alongside community members. Additionally, our study highlighted the lack of training opportunities and resources for educators to apply inclusive and socially transformative practices in formal and non-formal educational settings.
We are excited about the potential of the SIE4P.Inc framework to inspire and support educators in creating participatory learning environments where students with AEN can actively contribute to social change. Together, we can build more inclusive, democratic, and sustainable communities. 🌍🤝
