Empowerment, Vitality and Assertiveness - Female Education in Mentoring 2

2. ABOUT IKKAIDO
We take inclusive martial arts into Special Schools, Primary, Secondary and Colleges through a participation plan which takes athletes from 5 years old into adulthood.  This enables us to offer young disabled and non-disabled people sport, coaching, education and employment opportunities.
Teachers, carers and Teaching Assistants take part side by side with the young people to improve their health and physical literacy and add to their development and life-long learning
Non-disabled people take part in the same sessions and learn about disability, inclusion and volunteering

3. Project Summary
Empowerment, Vitality and Assertiveness - Female Education in Mentoring 2 (EVA-FEM2) is the second , improved edition of a project with 36 young women between 14 and 29 who do not normally participate in sport and physical activity from several different types of disadvantaged backgrounds & through self-defence & martial arts, we will empower them to become more active, effective and selfconfident people. The project objective is to empower young women and girls, giving them a stronger sense of the identity, competences, value and strengths by exploring the self-confidence gained through the increase of the knowledge of different tools, technology, use of communication skills and ultimately the exploration of the need to create the tools to do this. The context and objectives revolve around the topics of inclusion, technology, communication, social media, bullying, leadership, coaching and the empowerment of the young participants. Young females will come from different cultural and disadvantaged backgrounds including single parent families, orphans, disabled females, migrants, physical or sexual violence, stress or trauma, and victims from conflict or disaster. All will join together in activities and tasks and learn that everyone is "Different - just like me". The learning from this project will have a positive impact in improving their emotional and mental well-being as young people from vastly different backgrounds work together in non- formal activities. The promotion of equity and inclusion will be important objectives of EVA-FEM in terms of removing barriers to equal access to physical activity and martial arts, and promoting the empowerment of young women through self-defence tools. EVA-FEM will increase understanding and tolerance of other people's cultures and their and the wider community's sense of equality & equity by showing them that they are equally valued members of society. In accordance with these objectives of the Erasmus program, the young women will learn informally whilst assisting the partners in developing an informal and non-formal learning programme which will provide a psychosocial benefit to meet the needs of young women. Martial arts will resonate for all of the participants aligning with the objectives of the project because they are concerned with self-regulation through control of body and mind. The activities will be based on the principles of non-formal and informal education promoting interaction and encouraging participants to learn by doing, joining in with a positive spirit. All the participants and leaders will be involved in the ultimate learning outcome of a framework for a course of self- defence empowerment for young women and girls. We intend for this Framework to be further developed into elearning resources and workshops to provide long term benefits
