The women's tool kit for the recognition of women's informal and non-formal learning

This project places the emphasis on making the learning outcomes of  women’s informal learning visible and valuable to the women themselves, their social and family networks, and in such a way to open and facilitate pathways leading  to  more formal  recognition (in employment, by accreditation etc).  It will develop methods and tools to make these learning outcomes visible, valid and authentic will also enhance the value of these skills and competences acquired informally and should therefore make them more attractive for men too. "The WINKIT" aims at  promoting a fairer sharing of these tasks, thus furthering the objectives of the Roadmap for equality between women and men 2006-2010.

The project will furthermore link these learning outcomes into the European  Key Competences for lifelong learning, putting the emphasis on learning to learn because this will spill over into many of the 7 other defined  key competences.
