Taking the time to look after ourselves during this pandemic is extremely important. For this Erasmus+ Wellness Day, we will explore the benefits of daily exercise and how to take part in such activities.
In the morning session, we have lined up a jam-packed programme of fun wellbeing activities which you are free to try out during the Zoom breakout rooms. Whilst we know that Erasmus+ projects can challenge us to think outside of the box, it also provides support to ensure that we take the time to look after after ourselves.
We hope that you will benefit from the many wellbeing activities that are planned and that you also pause to appreciate what you have achieved so far along your Erasmus+ journey!
The promotion of equality has clearly grown since it became our core theme in our first Erasmus+ project: ‘Making Equality Our Policy’.
Equality is about making sure that everyone has a chance to take part in society on an equal basis and be treated the same.
For this conference, we want to look at how we can further promote equality and accommodate diversity in the Training & Development.
We will see how the CRC prevents and combats discrimination and how it’s Equality Statement respects, values and accommodates diversity.
The name of this Erasmus+ activity is “All Aboard For Moving Forward”. It is our last activity in this Erasmus+ Project 2: “The Rights to Decide”.
We want to look back at what we have achieved so far since we started our first Erasmus+ project back in 2019. We will take the time to go on a journey down memory lane as we recall all the activities that we participated on. We will see how we’ve had the opportunity to play an important part in policy change and overcome many obstacles that we faced along the way.
Now is the time that we need to plan for the future. Learning new skills will support us as we influence change in our own communities. We will look to adopt digital skills to assist us with this task.
Hence all aboard for moving forward!
This new Erasmus+ Project is called the Wayfinding Project. We are very excited about this new project and can’t wait to turn it into a reality.
We want to explore how digital tools can help us to become more active in exploring our own communities. We will use some of these tools to map out your community using Geotagging methods.
It promises to be a lot of fun as we all go out and find out what’s on our doorsteps in terms of facilities. It could be a parish hall, local barbers, a nice coffee shop, your nearby GP service etc.
We are very excited about sharing our plans for this Erasmus+ activity which we have entitled “Scavenger Hunt”. It is going to be a jam packed day with lots of interaction for all Erasmus+ participants.
Building on the skills that we developed from out last Erasmus+ activity, we will now put them into action as to enter the world of the Scavenger Hunt. These digital tools will help us to become more active in exploring our own communities whilst also building upon our skill sets.
The Erasmus+ Committee have been busy working away in the background planning this event and now we are delighted to announce our guest speaker. Matt McCann, who is the CEO and founder of Access Earth, will be joining us in the morning session.
This Erasmus+ activity promises to be a lot of fun.
So get ready, charge up your devices, follow those clues and unlock your digital skills.
“Make Way Day” is a campaign that brings the disability and wider community together to consider the needs of people with disabilities in the public spaces we all share.
It is led by the Disability Federation of Ireland and is a unique collaboration across Ireland and the voluntary and local government sectors. But most of all it’s about people with disabilities.
Access is the most basic of all disability rights. The public footpaths are for everyone and we can all agree on that. In a wider context, this one day focuses the mind on people with disabilities, their lives, and needs.
Last year, the CRC played a big role in supporting and promoting the Make Way Day campaign and featured in many of the RTÉ News bulletins and all across social media.
The theme of this Erasmus+ activity is Government Bodies.
With the help of our guest speakers, we will discover what this term actually means. Why do we have these Government Bodies and what can they do for us?
Tom Conlan, a retired Army pilot and now a well-known Irish journalist, will discuss the importance of fighting for disability rights and equality.
Also joining us on the day is Anna Healy from Changing Places. She will talk about her involvement from the very start of this worthy campaign setup.
