DIGIT+ dissemination event
We introduced DIGIT+ project to the teachers and administrators of Kartepe Osmangazi Junior Secondary School in on the 11 th of May, 2023. We shared information about the project&its intellectual outputs which focus on digital educational tools teachers can use to design online lessons. Also mentioned were the basic and advanced digital skills courses teachers and learners at any age can access on the project website. We presented the project website as well and explained how they can navigate on it.
It was a good opportunity for us to learn about the teachers’ experience during the pandemic, especially the chellenges they had to deal with in online teaching.
A big ‘’thank you’’ to the administrators and teachers at Osmangazi Junior Secondary School for the interactive meeting.

Governance for Youth, new project for KOGED
|
KOGED is one of the partners in Gençlik ve Proje Derneği (GEPED)’s new project "Governance for Youth". The project has kicked off recently and is funded by Kocaeli Council Local Support Fund (YEDEP). It is to be implemented in partnership with Kocaeli City Council, Kocaeli Metropolitan Municipality and KOGED. The 5-month project aims to enable young people to get involved in the decisions taken by local administrators, to let them explain their own problems and/or ideas and to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to participate in the administration. Various activities will be implemented in cooperation with local governments, universities and non-governmental organisations in Kocaeli within the scope of the project. The overall aim is the development of young people in the fields of active citizenship and participation in the local government.
In addition to the planned trainings in order to increase the knowledge and awareness of young people in the fields of active citizenship and participation in administration , workshops will be organised with the aim of enabling the partners&participants gain experience in identifying the local problems of the youth in Kocaeli, expressing them appropriately and producing solutions. |

Cafe Europe Multiplier Event in Izmit
We held the multiplier event of Cafe Europe project on 1.10.2022 at Maide Cafe&Restaurant, Izmit. During the interactive meeting with more than thirty participants, we briefly introduced our project to our new stakeholders and youth, as well as information about the now completed intellectual outputs. In the next session, we asked our target audiences, who have been involved in our project activities from very early on, to share their views and impressions with us; hearing these very positive feedbacks has made us very happy and increased our motivation to go on working in this area. In the last part, we distributed certificates to our young participants who attended both the workshops and completed the online training. Thank you very much to all our participants and stakeholders.
