In February 2019 the project Management and Technologies of Water, Waste Water, Waste and Circular Economy with 11 partners from Germany, Norway, Finland, Lithuania, Poland, Austria and Hungary started its work. A total of 16 educational programmes are being developed, tested, evaluated and implemented for vocational education and training as well as for Bachelor’s degree programmes.
Furthermore, a Train the Trainer
programme will enable teachers from educational institutions to use the
educational measures developed in the project independently in the future. A
first Train the Trainer seminar will take place on 8 and 9 June 2020 in
Brussels.
If you would like to participate
free of charge and with reimbursement of travel and accommodation expenses,

From 19 to 20 November Hanse Parlament visited the beautiful little town of Vorumaa in Estonia to participate in the kick-off meeting of the Erasmus+ ExcellWBL project.
ExcellWBL stands for Baltic Examples of Excellence in WBL: Tutors, Companies, Networks. Hanse Parlament’s member Latvian Chamber of Commerce and Industry is the initiator and leader of the two-years project, in which we are going to
identify and
collect examples and experiences of outstanding workplace tutors, motivated
companies, effective cooperation mechanisms in Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania;
boost the
reputation and attractiveness of work-based learning (WBL) through praising,
awarding, advertising persons, organisations and approaches which can serve as
role models;
produce material
of examples which can be used int raining WBL tutors from companies and VET
schools and in training of VET managers;
promote
partnerships between VET schools and enterprises in the Baltic Sea region
In the project we produce a
collection of national Examples of Excellence in WBL: Latvia, Estonia,
Lithuania (in Latvian, Lithuanian and Estonian).
From this collection we select
examples of WBL excellence, which are then published in English in a case book
“Selected Examples of Excellence in Baltic WBL”.
In addition, we are going to develop
and test a training programme “Promoting Baltic WBL through Examples, Cases and
Peer Learning” for Vocational Education and Training. The test will be
organised in Hamburg, with participation of teachers and trainers from Baltic
states.
All project results will be
presented and discussed at a conference in Hamburg in 2021 which will of course
be freely available to all interested parties.
The project consortium is composed
as follows:
Latvian Chamber of Commerce and
Industry (Lead Partner), Latvia
Baltic Bright, Training and
Consulting center,
Latvia
Võrumaa Vocational Education Center,
Estonia
Vocational
Education Association, Latvia
Hanse-Parlament

We are looking forward to an exciting time and experiences!
BaltSe@nioR 2.0 – Innovative
solutions to support BSR in providing more senior-friendly spaces due to
increased capacity of BSR companies and public institutions is unifying
various actors (municipalities, universities, businesses, NGOs) representing
all 8 BSR countries and Russia to work together to help the Region to cope with
the aging challenge by providing more senior-friendly public spaces.
Modern public spaces should reduce ageism and
be friendly to all. Nevertheless, when public space is considered economy is
the biggest obstacle. Knowing BSR is furniture powerhouse of the EU, generates
though enormous possibilities. With new guidelines on senior-friendly, smart
public procurement we will open up discussion for the necessity to consider
safety and aging-friendly requirements while producing and buying furniture for
public spaces. We will promote intergenerational respect, universal design and
UN Sustainable Development Goals.
BaltSe@nioR 2.0 builds on the positive results
gained from BaltSe@nioR 1.0. By focusing not only on companies, designers and
researchers, but also on municipalities, providers and owners of public spaces
we can ensure greater collaboration across the value chain to accommodate
seniors needs regarding furniture.
The Poznan University of Life Sciences
continues its role as Lead Partner. Hanse Parlament is pleased to be part of
this exciting project. The project runs until 30.06.2021.
