ELEVATOR

The three-year international project (reg. No. 2015-1-KA204-014014), focused on adult education in the field of accessible tourism, started in September 2015.

The name of the project „Elevator“ represents the effort to raise the quality of human resources and services in tourism to a higher, more accessible and competitive level. Project responds to the lack of awareness and tools for the development of competences of workers in tourism in relation to clients with access needs and on mostly slow to dismissive attitude of operators and managers of tourist facilities and destinations to the issue of accessibility and to the business potential of clients with limited mobility and orientation.  

The aim of the project is to exchange good practices in education for accessible tourism and to develop and disseminate three innovative intellectual outputs:

1) Comparative analysis of existing tools and conditions for education in accessible tourism including the proposal of transferable curriculum for education in accessible tourism.

2) Open Educational Resource for Tourist and Travel Guides

3) Accessible tourism pocket guide   

There will take place 5 international meetings with thematic workshops and at the end of the project will organized international conference in the Czech republic.

Project partners:

• ENAT - European network for accessible tourism, Belgium
• PREMIKI, Slovenia
• TANDEM, Italy

This project is co-funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European union.
