LEARN: Learning Environments for Active, Responsive and
Nurturing adults for Early Childhood in Europe“

The project „LEARN: Learning Environments for Active, Responsive and Nurturing adults for Early
Childhood in Europe“ aims to test tools and pathways for empowerment and validation of non-
formal and informal competences for responsive parenting and quality Home Learning Environments
(HLE) for the benefit of children in their first 1000 days of life. The project is based on the Nurturing
Care Framework (NCF) and it seeks to support and influence a variety of stakeholders involved in the
early stages of a child‘s life, including parents, guardians and operators of health, social and
educational services.

AIMS

• To combat educational poverty in the first thousand days of children's lives by experimenting
  with competence empowerment paths for responsive parental communities and quality
  family learning environments
• To create operational synergies between parents, health, social and educational services
  across Europe
• To support local communities of parents to feel part of an alliance that recognises, reassures
  and strengthens
• To make non-formal and informal parenting skills recognisable, including in the professional
  context

MAIN OUTCOMES

• Opportunity maps aimed at highlighting existing opportunities, services and networks
  supporting parenting during the first thousand days of children's lives, designed as a shared,
  engaging and collective framework covering various sectors and services
• Participatory training programmes for the empowerment of non-formal and informal skills
  useful for parents and professionals, providing support actions that promote responsive
  parenting, tailored to the specific needs and aspirations of local communities
• Methodological guidelines and a Toolkit for the transnational validation of parenting-related
  competencies, tailored to specific target groups (parents/operators)

The project is funded under the Erasmus+ programme for the period 2025-2028.
