Stories in Motion II - Peer groups : share, support & network

"The project “Stories in Motion II - Peer groups : share, support & network"" is the continuity of ""Stories in Motion 1"", in the sense that we are still working on storytelling methods in adult education. Moreover, the idea of the project comes from an unexpected result of ""Stories in Motion 1"" (still running) : a model of peer colleagues group support and sharing, allowing to grow professionnally.The new features are :* we now work at the level of adult educators & multilpliers only ;* we combine storytelling methods and peer groups facilitation methods.We are targetting the need to share about work practise between adult educators in a neutral environment.The objectives are : • to experiment and disseminate a peer support model in adult education ;• to exchange and explore different methods / uses of story-telling that support sharing (listen and talk) ;• to develop adult educators competences and to improve their work practises ;• to strengthen and broaden local network co-operations on adult education.The participating countries are France, Italy, Estonia and Czech Republique.
