Role in the Generation Infinity project
As the leader of Work Package 3, Fundacja “Fundusz Inicjatyw” oversees the entire development cycle of the eight-module ‘Gen-Infinity Digital Skills’ curriculum. This includes convening the WP3 kick-off meeting, designing the common module template and writing the “Everyday Digital Life: Staying Social” module, coordinates partner contributions and rigorously reviews each draft to ensure pedagogical quality, relevance and user-friendliness. The organisation then organises and supervises the pilot delivery of the curriculum, collects structured feedback from senior learners and trainers, and leads the fine-tuning that produces the validated, multilingual package ready for integration into the digital platform.
Beyond WP3, Fundacja „Fundusz Inicjatyw” contributes technical insight to the specification of platform user requirements in WP4. As part of the dissemination work, the organisation will also host Poland’s national multiplier event, presenting project results to policymakers and adult education stakeholders to ensure that Generation Infinity’s innovations gain traction both locally and across Europe.
