eCARE Multipliers main goal is to develop Dissemination and Exploitation of Results Activities (DERA).

The member of the Multiplier Programme may be any person representative of the target group, the beneficiaries or the stakeholders, and will be capable to take stock from the events organized for the multiplication of the project eCARE and its outcomes and deliver feedback to the project’s consortium, the Observatory Committee open web platform (policy analysis experts), or any other organisation or individual engaged in the process. In that way, the role of the Multiplier is to contribute to the main goal of the project, that is to have a positive impact at local and regional levels on the actors identified in the present project, regarding the topic in hand, considering the current policies, the cultural and social background of their communities.

Summarizing, a multiplying event can be: info-sessions, regular counselling, conferences, workshops, seminars, contact seminars, training courses, or a combination of these activities – at local or regional level, as per the project’s objectives, as far as it addresses eCARE project target group: teachers and their pupils (and the pupil’s parental sphere as well).
