Women 5.0: Women Entrepreneurs in a Digital Future is an Erasmus+ project dedicated to closing the digital gender gap by empowering women entrepreneurs with the skills and confidence to thrive in the digital economy. Despite the increasing demand for digital competencies, women remain underrepresented in ICT, STEM fields, and entrepreneurship, facing barriers such as limited access to financing, lack of role models, and entrenched stereotypes. 

Women 5.0 responds to this challenge by providing targeted training, resources, and mentorship to enhance digital skills, foster entrepreneurship, and support trainers in guiding women through digital transformation. Women 5.0 aligns with EU priorities on digital inclusion and gender equality, contributing to a more diverse and innovative entrepreneurial landscape.

The main products that will be the result of the co-operation between the project partners are: 

• Learning Path for women entrepreneurs’ digital skills at different levels available in English, Spanish, Portuguese and Macedonian. 

• Digital Toolkit for entrepreneurship trainers, advisors and trainees with digital resources in order to engage female entrepreneurs in the use of new technologies at different levels in English, Spanish, Portuguese and Macedonian.

Specifically, CHAMELEON aims to:

• Implement and validate a training model for young people providing a career guidance roadmap
• Develop and implement a MOOC based on the CHAMELEON framework to propose learning tools to support young career guidance in school practice.
• Develop a Serious Game, a game-based approach fostering new skills for young people to build proactive, digital and sustainable career plans, performing its practical and on-stage activity
• Provide a user-centred approach, actively involving school actors (students, teachers) as co-creator of the game
• Provide guidelines to support career paths for digital and sustainable societies in other countries, proposing recognition of the training program at the EU level.
• Bring the school education sector with the companies and universities, associations, fostering the knowledge triangle between education and innovation and research.

Target

School students, neets (school staff will be working with consortium), innovative career ambassadors

Results

CHAMELEON expects to enhance the skills needed to respond to the challenges of a continuously changing environment.

The main intangible outcome is the contribution to the student’s skills and competence to face the labour market with a proactive approach, with a high ability to adapt and contribute to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

The main tangible outputs of the projects are:

1. Roadmap career guidance: CHAMELEON will propose a training model to engage high school students with digital, sustainability and entrepreneurial skills contributing to achieving sustainable, proactive and innovative careers.
2. MOOC: CHAMELEON will release a MOOC for high school students for learning and transferring needed skills based on three pillars. The MOOC aims to guide students in possible career paths (and to create new ones) using these skills to deal with the complex interactions among economic policies and work in an international and cosmopolitan context.
3. Serious Game: CHAMELEON will release a serious game that stands both as an autonomous tool and a highly connected game to the MOOC and integrated into it. Furthermore, the game represents practical activities of the course as a virtual lab.
4. Guidelines for School Education: this result will report the experience of this pedagogical approach in e-learning, providing an easy manual for the stakeholders that intend to implement this roadmap in their curricula and the school program. Furthermore, this output will focus on delivering policy recommendations and providing validation and certification of the training program at the EU level for high school students. This will be possible both in EU countries that require students to obtain certifications on school-to-work transition courses and in other countries that have not implemented these activities in school curricula yet.

Rapid digital transformation has influenced education, work and life and the Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted more the digital divide in some territories, especially between urban and rural areas, and the need for innovation in education to respond to these challenges.

For this reason, Our Digital Village aims to intervene in rural areas by promoting the acquisition of digital and transversal skills, preparing people to face the challenges of the future. It will do so by co-creating high-quality educational content that responds to the needs of the local context, while simultaneously ensuring the long-term transformation towards digitalization through active awareness raising on all levels of society.

Through self-analysis workshops, the intrinsic motivation to change will be explored, and the needs of each local context will be identified. These will be taken in mind while co-designing the educational materials, followed by a training for teachers and trainers to ensure their capacity to implement the co-designed activities with their learners. In the testing phase of the educational materials, ICT courses will enhance the competences of young and adult learners, while consolidating the newly acquired skills of teachers and trainers.

TARGET GROUPS

• Educational institutions including formal and non-formal educational providers (schools, universities, youth centres, NGOs), and public institutions (municipalities)
• Teachers/trainers of educational institutions and community organisations’ educational staff
• School and adult learners
• Policy makers and stakeholders

OBJECTIVE

To foster the development of digital and transversal skills of people in rural areas thus preparing them for the challenges of the future, by testing, evaluating and promoting a bottom-up, holistic and innovative approach to the creation of educational materials and awareness-raising
