Balance4Autism – Digital Adult Learning Model for Family Wellbeing

The key activities of the project are:

1.-Methodological Blueprint for the Interactive Family Wellbeing Toolkit:

• Identify the learning needs and priorities of parent-carers
• Define measurable learning outcomes related to self-efficacy, emotional regulation, resilence and crisis prevention.
• Develop a structured and transferable adult learning model, including the learning pathway, toolkit architecture and pilot methodology.

2.-Development of the Interactive Family Wellbeing Toolkit

• Develop four structured learning units for parent-carers
• Create a practical library of simple strategies and activities that can be integrated into everyday family life.
• Develop a Family Wellbeing Plan to support personalised routines, early identification of difficulties and crisis-prevention strategies.

3.-Pilot Implementation and Validation

• Implement the learning pathway with parent-carers in Poland, Italy and Lithuania.
• Organise learning sessions in each country complemented by guided self-work.
• Collect quantitative and qualitative feedback throught pre and post-assessment tools, reflection activities and participant feedback
• Improve and finalise the Interactive Family Wellbeing Toolkit based on the result of the pilot phase.

4.-Learning Exchange and Dissemination Activities

• Organise one Family Wellbeing Learning Exchange Forum in each partner country.
• Present the project methodology, pilot experience and final results to an international audience.
• Share project news resources, practical activities and results through websites, newsletters, social media and relevant European platforms.
• Encourage adult education providers, NGOs and family support organisations to adapt and usethe Toolkit beyond the project lifetime.

The expected results are:

• Strengthened capacity of participating organisations and external stakeholders to deliver inclusive, digitally supported adult education for parent-carers, reflected in increased readiness to adopt the 8-week pathway and use the Toolkit tools (self-assessment, micro-practices, wellbeing planning).
• Increased cross-sector cooperation at local level through Forums, bringing together adult education, NGOs and social services around a shared, preventive model for families.
• Stronger European networking and shared learning throught the webinar, confirming that parent-carer challenges are comparable across contet and that the model is transferable.
• Higher sustainability and replication potential, as stakeholders leave with a validated, practical resource and clear minimum standars for implementation.
