Resources from the Hard Times - Soft Skills (Hati-SOS) project

Hard Times - Soft Skills (Hati-SOS) was an Erasmus+ project (2022-2024) that focused on training programmes creating a new culture of cooperation, communication and mutual care within our solidarity economy organizations and movement.

Introductory article on the need for Soft Skills

• HARD TIMES , SOFT SKILLS

The project was conducted in partnership by:

* Ekumenická akademie (Czech Republic), www.ekumakad.cz

* Fundacja EkoRozwoju (Poland), www.fer.org.pl

* Profilantrop association (Hungary), www.profilantrop.org

* Utopia (Slovakia), www.utopia.sk

* RIPESS Europe, www.ripess.eu

Main goal of the project has been to assist people in gaining skills to create new cultures of cooperation and care, as for instance the skill of self-care within the context of collective care - caring for ourselves and for other people in the movement.

To achieve that, project partners have developed trainings, a handbook and an application around ‘Soft Skills’.
