The arti­cle  pro­duced with­in this intel­lec­tu­al out­put will present the new method­olog­i­cal approach of the PSP mod­el and its the­o­ret­i­cal foun­da­tion at an inter­na­tion­al aca­d­e­m­ic symposium.

The objec­tive of the pro­posed sym­po­sium is to enable face-to-face peer learn­ing among par­tic­i­pants rep­re­sent­ing var­i­ous inter­na­tion­al stake­hold­ers. On the basis of the learn­ings from the sym­po­sium, the par­tic­i­pat­ing researchers from the LEMA project will col­lec­tive­ly pro­duce a joint aca­d­e­m­ic pub­li­ca­tion on the PSP mod­el. The pub­li­ca­tion will poten­tial­ly influ­ence the estab­lished prac­tices in social inclu­sion of mar­gin­al­ized youth.

The Symposium

Both well-estab­lished inter­na­tion­al researchers as well as pro­fes­sion­als and rep­re­sen­ta­tives of NGOs will be invit­ed to share their views on var­i­ous aspects of the approach of the PSP mod­el towards the chal­lenges of and prac­tices in urban social edu­ca­tion and mar­gin­al­iza­tion at an inter­na­tion­al con­fer­ence, such as ECER (Euro­pean Con­fer­ence of Edu­ca­tion­al Research), in 2021. 

Title of the symposium:

The Challenges and Approaches in Urban Social Education Research for Inclusion.

Dur­ing the sem­i­nar, par­tic­i­pants will exchange exper­tise and expe­ri­ences in order to devel­op and share knowl­edge that can address key social inclu­sion chal­lenges in Euro­pean cities in new and alter­na­tive ways. Specif­i­cal­ly, the par­tic­i­pat­ing part­ners from the LEMA project will present papers that explore the pos­si­bil­i­ties of youth par­tic­i­pa­to­ry action research as a rich source to co-cre­ate new knowl­edge, chal­lenge social and edu­ca­tion­al con­straints, and pro­duce a mean­ing­ful and sus­tain­able change col­lec­tive­ly — the PSP mod­el being an exam­ple of how to enhance the reper­toires of prac­tice in social inclusion.
