Summary

Background
Through this project we want to bring our contribution in order to develop educational alternatives based on technology.
We appreciate that it will have an important impact because according to research studies we found that there are very few recovery services for the elderly who became ill with COVID and who were left with sequelae.
According to studies, specialists estimate that about 80% of the population have post-covid sequelae and the vast majority are affected by the lungs.
Because we need a society prepared to „fight” with this virus, we have chosen as representatives of our organization in the field of physiotherapy / psychology and social workers who work with the elderly to be able to benefit from international training, to later share knowledge with the elderly and provide them with specialized support.
They will contribute to the recovery of seniors who have gone through the disease and also to the stimulation of positive thinking.

Objectives
By developing a non-formal education based on technology, the beneficiaries will acquire new technological skills which is a plus in the teaching activity at the level of our organization and will also have the opportunity to use the tools developed in the teaching act and integrative activities, especially in the last during the period most of the activities were organized online.

Thus we will contribute to:
* facilitating access to continuing education for physiotherapists / psychologists and social workers;
* development of new educational alternatives based on technology;
* at the level of the organization the professional development of the specialists and of the organizational management;
* during the sustainability period we will develop an online course for seniors (post COVID) and other stakeholders;
* development of the linguistic and technological competences of the beneficiaries;
* establishing new contacts at international level and enriching the general culture;

Activities

Due to the current situation we face due to the pandemic, we have chosen to involve a large number of direct and indirect beneficiaries in order to have a prepared / trained society and to overcome the negative effects generated by the pandemic with COVID 19.
We also went on the idea that by perfecting an international number of specialists as much as possible, we will be able to respond to current needs.
They will have important tasks within the project, respectively for the elaboration of the didactic material for non-formal education (films with therapeutic activities – breathing exercises / physical exercises and motivational films and for stimulating positive thinking). During the sustainability period, they will contribute to the development of an online course for seniors. Popularization and dissemination of new knowledge.
