Competendo is committed to develop better learning spaces for civic competences and empowerment. The toolbox offers and shares experience, methods and inspiration for competency based learning in communities, schools, organizations, and non-formal groups or institutions.

Our mission is to build a bridge between the theoretical dimension of Education for Democratic Citizenship/Human Rights Education (EDC/HRE), the societal impact and quality dimension of education (in particular of non-formal education) and the concrete practice in the field of EDC/HRE.
We are making concrete methodology accessible and helping with the planning of trainings and empowerment programs. Also those facilitators and educators are in our focus who have less experience or are less involved in the European and national discourses on non-formal education or competency development. Because we believe, that innovative competency centered education is following a bottom-up approach. Change starts with empowering facilitators.

Increasing the Recognition and Visibility of Open Materials
Competendo collates also inspiring practice and materials from all over the world published in English language. Also our handbooks are published here for free use. In this sense, Competendo is aiming to increase the visibility and recognition of Open Educational Resources and other open accessible materials developed in many projects and by many passioned authors around Europe and beyond.
