MTP – CooperationNew Working Methods • Set up of “Learning Teams” (LT); • Participation of WG’s chairs in all other WG’s meetings in each presidency; • Virtual Meetings by using the potentialities of the CIRCA website.
MTP- Cooperation- LT • Within each WG can be set out temporary LTs on the basis of particular common interests of some members, with the objective to produce outputs to share within the WGs. • Relate the LTs theme to WGs/EUPAN mission • The LT could have two primary kinds of outputs: • Innovative: to develop new themes. • Sharing: to find transferable practices between MS
The Learning Teams participants could be: MTP- Cooperation- LT • Members of one group; • Members of different EUPAN WGs; • Experts/consultants of MS invited by the LT
LT guidelines & principles MTP- Cooperation- LT • The LG philosophy of action should be “win-win”: all LT members should learn with the LT experience. • The LT nature is not academic but practice. • The LT “clients” are the LT members, the WGs members, the EUPAN network and the European public services. • The LT is free to set up the form of work, namely the coordination, the responsible for the minutes of the meetings, the possible reports and presentations, etc. • The LT is free to set up the most appropriate way of work .To avoid extra costs to MS attendance meetings it is not a prerequisite, but LT members are free to decide on this.
Main advantages of the LTs MTP- Cooperation- LT • Aligning the WGs activity to the Member States needs and expectations (volunteer basis). • Covering more themes in the MTP which increases the WGs results. • Sharing practices and findings among MS in a more deep way. • Working on specific themes which don’t have the necessary consensus of the WGs to be a common project.
MTP- Cooperation- WGs Chairs • Formalization of theparticipation of WG’s chairsin all other WG’s meetings in each presidency Active participation in order to contribute with knowledge/experience of a different WG to the work developed in the host WG
MTP- Cooperation Virtual Meetings Exploiting the CIRCA website potentialities to: • Exchange information between the WGs; • Ask/answer questions related to a specific project or subject ; • Develop a common project.
