Abstract(s)
As society keeps expanding and growing as a whole, tackling new challenges and disrupt alternatives
in order to generate new jobs, educational offers, technological services, health and lifestyle
opportunities and other aspects that constitute this large community, it is important to guarantee
proper solutions and answers to the needs of those who are at a more disadvantaged background. In
this case, we talk about people with disabilities or other communities who suffer from exclusion or face
low opportunities scenarios. It is important to ensure that these groups can be included in society and
be part of its several systems (employment, education, social affairs, equity, access to technologies,
among other aspects).
Therefore, The DID. VALUE project is a European action, combining the strengths and experience of
three main partner countries (Portugal, Croatia, Cyprus) and other associated partners, that seeks to
define and implement a holistic model that facilitates, through disruptive methodologies, innovative
integration methods and learning mechanisms adapted to the needs of young people with disabilities
and other disadvantaged communities, the social and professional inclusion of these target groups
towards internships and jobs. In this sense, this work will describe the processes and strategies that
led this comprehensive and integrated model to a deeper understanding of how these target groups
can be included in society and on its several layers of composition. This way, generating new
knowledge and good practices on which methods and resources can be used as key guidelines to
solve these problems in a systemic way.
