​

At local level:

​

• A Mapping Exercise took place in 5 countries (Belgium, Iceland, Italy, Spain and Sweden) to identify good practices and establish the framework for Pilot Actions

• Regional-level collaborative support groups were established in 4 countries

• Pilot Actions of different scales and duration were run in 4 countries over a period of 18-21 months

 

At European level:

​

• Two partner meetings: Kick-Off in Sweden and Final Meeting in France

• Four individual country visits by the Action Research Coordinator

• Four Learning Activities:

• the first two involved 2-3 representatives of local support groups from each country: firstly to exchange on the Mapping results, the second to evaluate the first stages of the Pilot Action phase and develop the idea of a Competence Framework

• the third and fourth each involved around 20 professionals working in a variety of organisations in the field of women’s unemployment

​

Concrete results include:

​

• The development in 4 countries of networks of professionals having participated actively in the different stages – with strategies to develop the work beyond the end of She Empowers

• tools for dissemination / transfer of the She Empowers project including:

• A She Empowers website – developed to frame the results of the Mapping – has evolved into a mini-library for the whole 3-year project

• 12 Pilot Actions are presented on our website for potential transferability

• A Competence Framework - in three parts - frames our conclusions about the actors, the actions and the competence requirements of the various professionals in the field

• A Training Manual outlines 2 European-level Training Courses for practitioners and includes several session templates tried and tested during these activities. Examples are added - by each of the pilot countries - of training sessions held at national levels.
