The main goal of the project is to strengthen civic education in Poland by developing teacher competencies, building democratic and inclusive learning environments, and increasing the engagement of children and young people in social life. The project supports the implementation of civic education reform through the use of a comprehensive Whole School Approach, encompassing all elements of school and preschool operations. Key activities include appointing a team of 20 national experts responsible for developing methodological frameworks, training programs, and teaching materials, training 160 regional change leaders, and implementing a cascading training program for approximately 5,000 teachers and other stakeholders. The project also involves the development and dissemination of innovative educational materials on democratic competencies, critical thinking, countering disinformation, and social engagement. Key elements will include study visits and exchange of experiences with Norwegian partners, research and evaluation activities, and extensive information and promotional activities. The project will involve representatives from public administration, schools, preschools, NGOs, teachers, and the Norwegian partner – the European Wergeland Centre.

The objective of the component implemented by the Association of Polish Cities is to strengthen the institutional capacity of cities participating in the Local Development Programme by providing them with advisory, educational, communication and networking support at all stages of the programme cycle. The project aims to enhance cities’ ability to respond effectively to challenges and risks by improving the quality of planning, management, document preparation and the implementation of urban investments, including better use of integrated approaches and risk management. In parallel, the project builds a durable cooperation platform between cities, enabling knowledge exchange, dissemination of good practices, learning through experience and the development of bilateral cooperation with Norwegian partners. These objectives are pursued through: support to the Programme Operator in preparing documents and procedures; educational activities (seminars, webinars, tutorials, workshops, conferences); on‑demand individual consultancy; strategic advisory support for subregional cities; information and communication activities; development of a communication platform; organisation of study visits; experience‑exchange networks; a good‑practice competition; and publications supporting the implementation of urban solutions. The Association of Polish Cities serves as an entity enhancing the overall quality of programme implementation.

The project focuses on strengthening monitoring and preventive as well as corrective maintenance of cultural heritage by increasing the capacities of monument managers and owners in the fields of inspection, diagnostics, and preventive management. It also includes the development of modern digital tools to support these activities and support for raising public awareness. These measures aim to create a robust network of actors ensuring sustainable care for cultural heritage, support for local development, and increased resilience to climate change. At the same time, the project focuses on the systematic capacity-building of key owners and managers of national cultural monuments, especially those managing extensive and significant parts of cultural heritage. The aim is to expand their ability to carry out preventive inspections, ensure regular maintenance, and respond appropriately to minor defects in the structural parts of monument buildings. In the case of creating their own specialized preventive maintenance teams, the scope of inspections and the quality of ongoing care for monuments (domestic project partners) will be significantly increased, or through intensive training of existing employees carrying out maintenance of managed monuments, their competence and ability to intervene appropriately will be expanded. The project therefore also focuses on expanding the expertise and qualifications of employees of large owners/managers of monuments, whose job description includes care for real estate, and who should be able, after training, to perform preventive and corrective maintenance. Within the already existing inspection teams of the preventive maintenance department of PÚSR monuments, their experts should also be trained in assessing/diagnosing the condition of selected parts of movable heritage (made of wood) in line with the principles of preventive maintenance and the protection of historical materials. An important part of the project is the expansion of expert advisory services through digital platforms. Modern communication and IT tools will make it possible to provide support more flexibly to a wider range of monument owners and managers, not only in maintenance planning, but also in preventing damage caused by climate change or crisis situations. Digital solutions will also serve to share information and strengthen cooperation between experts and practice. A significant pillar of the project is also education and awareness-raising, both among monument owners and managers and among the general public, with the aim of strengthening the perception of cultural heritage as a shared value and responsibility. The project also focuses on the international transfer of know-how, with proven methodologies and experience being shared with partners abroad and supporting the introduction of preventive maintenance systems beyond Slovakia as well. It also includes acquiring knowledge from abroad, especially when addressing the issue of historic manor houses and mansions, with the aim of identifying innovative and sustainable approaches to their restoration and use.
