Expected Results:

•  Enhanced LNDS (literacy, numeracy and digital skills) of at least 120 low-skilled/low-qualified adult migrants in Turkey, Greece, Spain, Sweden, Cyprus and Italy (20 per Country);

• Developed capacities of at least 60 volunteers or higher education graduates – potential volunteers in applying comprehensive tutoring methodologies;

• Innovative capacity building methodologies (tutoring) aiming at maximizing the efficiency and effectiveness not only in project countries but also at EU level;

This online platform will be an user firendly tool with;

• high accessibility,
• with flexible user-friendly digital development,
• allowing easy adaptability in multiple contexts,
• enhancing the digital integration in learning, and
• supporting its sustainability and compatibility with any social and learning challenges.
