DISSEMINATION
ACPELIA CYPRUS/ Dissemination Plan
ACPELIA team created the webpage of the project. Following the selection of the beneficiaries, a communication and information exchange group was set up between the youth, foundation, and local community working groups. To achieve the best possible diffusion results, each individual action during the implementation of the program was documented and made public through photographic and videotaped material during and after the completion of the program. These, together with printed material, were the basis of the campaign for the dissemination of our results. The Erasmus + Outcome Platform was used, which offers a comprehensive presentation of all Erasmus + funded projects, highlighting projects, good practices, and further dissemination of learning outcomes.
The participants in the project, after complete preparation and guidance, were able to use their experience by organizing workshops, under the guidance of the team leader, where they were able to transfer the know-how acquired during the program implementation. The youth act as educators-multipliers in the local community and delivered material for information and awareness of those interested. Each participant, during a specific time, was publishing relevant material on the association's website, to inform all interested parties about the results of the project and extensive information was provided from the first day that was organized. All the announcements were gathered and sent from the youth to the local press and to the association's collaborating bodies, as well as the material with the used training material during the project was presented and distributed to youth organizations and associations from all the members.
In all our projects that we implement we are making open webpages to the public which always are there for a long time after the end of the project. Some examples of previous projects that were implemented by our organisation through the coordination of Nikolas the president of the applicant organisation our president are the following:

NGO Kreaktiva, Croatia/ Dissemination Plan
Covid-19 has pushed us to do all our activities in the open, even though we were very active even before on this topic. Slowly it has opened new doors for us, allowing us to try new types of activities with young people and nature was one of the directions that have proven to be very interesting and many of our members very gladly take part and new youngsters join. We invite young people to take a very active part in planning the activities after exchanges by providing them with the space and place to implement them. It is also done after and in between your YE organized within this project. Our members were supporting the implementation of small local activities in connecting with Nature which is a core of our NGO youthwork. We shared our results with the local government, other NGOs that we implement activities with and schools who are involved in any of the activities. We organized one activity in all of the areas of diversity and inclusion in environmental locations that were promoted by this project because our youngsters are very interested in this. Also, we have organized these types of activities before, with elderly members of our local communities and the unemployed so this might be a good direction for the promotion of this project too.
We support participants in the creation of their own activities and also support them by planning the workshop, so they invite their peers, friends, and family members and we create an event for multiple generations each time. This cross-generational activity has shown us that the inclusion of different local stakeholders is the best promotion of our activities and nobody feels excluded. This type of activity also empowers young people because it shows them how much they can accomplish and what they can create, which is something they have never done before. Small local initiatives are something that has been proven as a good tool for the inclusion of different age groups and also for empowerment.

Dissemination Plan/ NGO Socialnis Efektas, asociacija (Social Effect Network), Lithuania
Social Effect Network carried out online and physical dissemination activities for proper and wider dissemination of the project. The online activities were carried out through the company website and web-sites of the associated partners involved into the project; informative articles published in local and national web portals; by active discussions, regular posts regarding project activities; e-Newsletters delivered to partners emailing lists.
The physical dissemination activities included info day with the target groups and relevant stakeholders, meetings with local and national organisations working with youngsters, disadvantaged groups of people, meeting with Lithuanian Research Social Institute working on providing better insights on the empathy situation in Lithuania; the media via press info; educational fair at the local level, press conference on the occasion of the project.
Disseminating the project results was realized by:
- creating audio-visual products with information about the project;
- creating facebook page, with further collaboration between participants;
- collecting and further spreading the pictures from the project;
- recording workshops. Making the final video of the project and spreading in the webpages of all the partner organisations and their networks.
- informing about the project results and publishing an article in a local newspaper.
Before and after the action an article was written for local media and published at the partner organizations' websites/blogs. Participants also had the possibility to take part in writing their expectations, experiences and feelings on these articles.
Also at the beginning of the project, there was a questionnaire about their fears, motivations and their impact on the project and at the end there was a similar questionnaire, which we compared to see how many participants got their fears away, how many of them met their expectations and how did they feel their impact on the project, how satisfied are they from the activities, how well the learning process was structured.
From all activities, videos and photos were taken; articles were written; video created, (which is a part of the project), which was used for other dissemination of the project results. All promotional materials contained an official logo of the Erasmus+ programme. The materials were shared on social networks.
Since the dissemination process is an ongoing element during the whole project, all the associated partners were involved too. This commitment was documented in the signed cooperation agreement. In order to foster, implement and coordinate the dissemination of the overall results of the project, a work package was created, which included the coordination and steering of the dissemination. The partners took a lead in the working package and ensured with their expertise, knowledge and organisational power a strong dissemination of the results. The creation of the posters and booklets presenting the project results was covered too by the project implementation grant. No extra funds will be needed. The dissemination policy is based on the concept of using synergies with the existing organisational structure of the partners.
