Communication Activities: CIE has begun its activity in 2015 through MENTOR programme for the teachers of formal education and New Education Forum ("NEF"). NEFs are organized in the EU Member States. The Forum’s primary aim is (i) a constant search for tested educative solutions and (ii) building support for their effective implementation. Our NEF horizontal priority is bridging local and regional solutions with the European institutions to help adjust education to dynamically changing labor market. Since 2016, we meet at the end of the year in the European Parliament tin Brussels to summarize lessons learned from the regional NEFs and to present and discuss with European decision-makers recommendations reached during the year. 23rd Forum, organized in January 2022 was moved from December 2021 in Brussels EP to online version because of Covid-19. There we presented Youth's endorsements and proposals from NEF Comillas, NEF Sopot and NEF Ireland, benefiting from valuable insight of the EC officials as well as representants from the European Parliament. NEF January 2022 evaluated proposed Outdoor Learning solutions also addressed to enhancing VET. 26thNEF Brussels organised in November 2022 in the European Parliament begun with young people from the EU countries presenting their recommendations for changes in education. Further we beneftied from networking and conference part which took place in the European Economic and Social Committee. The debates and presentations focused mainly on: - European Green Deal - European Skills Agenda, with strong emphasis on transversal and digital skills. More information is provided in the Reports from regional and European Forums available at neweducationforum.com. New Education Forum - NEF, created in 2015 by the Center for Innovative Education, is a platform for exchanging knowledge, experience and contacts in the field of educational innovations. NEF works across Europe, bringing together representatives of over 380 institutions from 17 EU Member States: European regions and cities, higher education and research institutions, as well as employers from a variety of industries. The first NEF meeting - cohosted by MEP Mr Jerzy Buzek, the Forum’s First Ambassador - was in 2015. Since that time, 29 regional and annual NEF meetings (including 6 in the European Parliament) have been held, each on international level, attracting over 3.760 participants. We have been proud to host many outstanding panellists, enough to mention Mr Tibor Navracsics, the EU Commissioner for Education who opened the first New Education Forum Warsaw in 2015, Valdis Dombrovskis (the EU Commissioner), Montserrat Gomendio (Deputy Director, Education and Skills, OECD), Thérèse De Liedekerke (Deputy Director General, BusinessEurope), Dominika Bettman (CEO, Microsoft Poland), Sophia Eriksson Waterschoot (Director, Youth, Education and Erasmus+, DG Education and Culture, European Commission) and many others. While defining the goals of these meetings, it is worth underlining: - Promotion of transversal competences as essential labour resources; - Improvement of the perception of vocational educational and training by preventing prejudice and exclusion; - Finding innovative directions for education, aiming to engage individuals in difficult circumstances, particularly NEETs, refugees, persons with disabilites; - Building bridges between EU regions and cities and European institutions with respect of the abovementioned issue. So far, NEF has taken place around Europe, including Gdańsk, Linz, Caserta, Edingurgh, Limerick, Santander, Warsaw, Brussels, Poznań, Comillas, Turin, Berlin, Olsztyn, Aberdeen, Opole, Bielsko-Biała giving the opportunity to build innovative education network, conduct debates and create valuable partnerships, analyze local conditions, raise questions and look for answers and practical solutions, meeting the needs of the local and European labour markets.
