PICESL (Promoting Inclusion to Combat Early School Leaving)
PICESL was being led by the Universidad Pablo de Olivide in Sevilla, Spain. This was a project was being implemented through 2022. PICELS was an Erasmus+ project that aimed to promote intercultural education for student engagement. In many countries within the EU, students with a migrant background are at a higher risk of leaving school early and PICELS aims to address the inclusive and intercultural aspect of students school experience as an important part of the puzzle to improve the well-being and longevity of students’ school careers.
PICELS brought together teachers and researchers, with both teams collaborating and participating in a project to further the cause of early school leaving among the students with a migrant background. The essential feedback and experience of teachers was placed within an established academic framework that allows the project to produce two essential outputs. Firstly a pan-European mapping of successful intercultural and inclusive practices in the classrooms, which includes a set of indicators with which teachers can evaluate their own practices in the classroom.
Secondly, a teacher training guide based on the above-identified effective practices. In addition to these outputs, teachers training and multiplier events highlight the work that took will take place through 2022.

Educational Needs of Teachers in the EU for Inclusive Education in a Context of Diversity (INNO4DIV)
Phosfluorescently e-enable adaptive synergy for strategic quality vectors. Continually transform fully tested expertise with competitive technologies. Appropriately communicate adaptive imperatives rather than value-added.
This was a project led by the Joint Research Center (JRC) of the European Commission. The project was building on the insights from research that teachers in the EU struggle to address increasing diversity in classrooms and often lack the necessary competences to successfully manage this diversity. The IAIE was responsible for identifying inspiring practices across the EU, as well as outside the EU, that focus on both pre-service and in-service education and training relating to intercultural competences.

GRUNDTVIG Learning Partnership
Using traditional and new media to increase the impact of adult education initiatives to fight prejudice, xenophobia and discrimination; this project was a GRUNDTVIG Learning Partnership project, consisting of 6 organizations from 4 countries: the Netherlands, France, the UK, and Turkey. It aimed at exchanging different European adult education strategies using traditional and new media to increase the impact of initiatives to fight prejudice, xenophobia and/or discrimination mechanisms. Special emphasis was put on low-threshold non-formal strategies targeting learners from underprivileged or marginalized backgrounds.
Over a period of two years, from 2012 – 2014, the partner organisations exchanged best practices in adult education to use traditional media (newspapers, documentaries, etc.) or new media (the internet, social media, phone-based applications, etc.) to fight various forms of prejudice, xenophobia and discrimination (racism, antisemitism, islamophobia, antitsiganism, homophobia, sexism, social marginalization, etc.). Their strategies were accessible and transferable in a low-income context.
