Please describe the case in detail

In particular please consider (a)Objectives of the intervention; (b) Tools used to achieve the project goals; (c) Methodologies applied;

The aim is to analyze the needs of the society and the environment and to form different events that meet their needs. BY that manner, a series of activities aimed at the public with the purpose of regional integration is organized.
The reason for these activities is the integration of the institution into society. This is recommended as a characteristic of a good neighbor and a useful member of society.
The best example for this events are free workshops and educations or humanitarian activities that meets their needs. Aspira annually organizes several such events as education in the field of tourism, the educations for private renters, education for improvement of sales promotion, internet marketing etc.

What resources are required for the case?

Consider human resources, financial resources, infrastructure, in-kind resources and any other type required.

It takes a lots of effort to organize this kind of events because we're talking about events that are not a core business of the institution. It requires the engagement of a number of employees, students, members of Lifelong learning Centre, experts who are covering certain topics of the event, the venues where the event will take place and other technical prerequisites.

What are the enabling factors making this case successful?

Consider institutional support, environmental/social/political factors, etc.

Limiting factors may be the will and the time of all participants and the inability to recognize the right projects from the institutional side.

Why do you consider this case to be good/best practice?

Please consider that a best practice must (a) have a clearly defined objective to increase the connection with the World of Work, (b) address the target groups of the project, (c) be replicable and sustainable, (d) have clearly demonstrated evidence of effectiveness in increasing the connection with the World of Work

It is possible in this example to assess whether the institution is sufficiently socially active and thus to make self assemesment and improvements.
