▶Objectives
The Community 3.0 partnership aimed to address social inclusion gaps in SEDN by creating sustainable cooperative learning platforms to empower civil society actors and adult education organizations. In Bulgaria, efforts focused on fostering trust and transparency between residents and institutions through consistent communication and involving residents in decision-making to create a sense of ownership. In Greece, the project tackled societal stereotypes faced by Roma communities by raising awareness to combat prejudice. In Italy, collaboration with organizations ensured bottom-up initiatives were supported and sustained. In Sweden, the project aimed to improve connections between migrants and institutions by recommending the creation of a second-level organization to facilitate dialogue and draft inclusive social policies. These country-specific needs were incorporated into the MOOC development.
