Evaluating tendencies of the labour market, key competencies - Producing Charter of Recommendations based on the valuable experience of NEF participants exchanging international knowledge and experience in educative actions aiming at promoting innovative methods of learning.
The New Education Forum is to provide a space for discussing Recommendations, which tackle the transition gap. Created on the basis of the Best Practices of the New Education Forum 2016, the Recommendations identify educational transformation priorities. Within the Forum they are subject of evaluation and enhancement by Forum’s international experts as well as by the Members of the European Parliament and the European Commissioners.
Under guidance of the New Education Forum, evaluated Recommendations will allow educational transformation stakeholders to form a road map on enforcement of crucial learning strategies. Parents and employers cannot afford to wait to challenge the pace of civilizational changes. They engage in actions, which now can help new generations to cope with constant instability and facilitate entering the adulthood. These “programs” often lead to tangible results in the form of independent living through employability.
The Best Practices of the New Education Forum 2016 are examples of actions responding to rapidly changing labour market, but addressing this issue on a much broader scale. Based on their experience in 6 EU countries: Spain, United Kingdom, Belgium, Germany, Austria and Poland, these models show that civic engagement is the only path for the new learning approach to succeed. The Recommendation aim at building education strategies, which tackle transition gap issue in diverse European cultures.
