FEAT-DS is based on specific shared requirements in partner communities, which mirror the situation in the Consortium countries, both in terms of target group, people with Down syndrome and sector of adult education. The FEAT – DS project will enable partners to establish a process based on three primary pillars: exchanging, developing and sharing. Partners will share information and case studies about the present state of affairs in their respective countries and localities. This will result in the planning of collaborative initiatives capable of addressing national differences. The project envisions the development and implementation of customised educational materials and activities that combine existing methodologies and novel practices. These materials and activities will result in a qualitative upgrade of all partners’ capability and educational offer, as well as the competences of staff members involved in project implementation. The educational deliverables of the FEAT – DS project have a high potential for inclusion in the adult education systems of the Consortium countries and beyond. Furthermore, because of the typology of the chosen methods (tinkering and coding) and sector of action (electronics), the educational deliverables will be adaptable and transferable to stakeholders working in other sectors.
