ACDC is an Erasmus+ projects that aims to test an innovative approach to extend the offer of transversal competences in a lifelong perspective, in the highly relevant field of health literacy for adults, with a specific focus on preventing cognitive decline. Hence, the projects is innovative on two levels.
Primarily, the partnership wants to bring an essential kind of learning content – health literacy – to the widest possible audience and to this end we have mobilised experienced partners in order to activate effective channels of training delivery. This kind of partnership and delivery channels seem necessary in order to make health literacy a permanent element of adult training programmes in the partner regions and potentially across Europe. There is indeed a strong need to intervene in the field of health literacy for prevention as a measure to tackle ageing trends of the European population or – better – the consequences of ageing (in particular cognitive decline) which have enormous economic and social costs for individuals, families and communities.The only sustainable way to face this problem is through prevention: prevention is brought about mainly by information and training, and in order to reach the highest number of beneficiaries, such training has to be ICT-based, thus replicable.
The second area of innovation of the ACDC projects is high-quality learning, via an interactive gaming tool. This will be a smart, easy-access and pragmatic open edutainment instrument, designed to be understood and efficacious for the widest range of beneficiaries. It will undergo a painstaking scientific validation.
