Links-up is an EU project looking at how ‘Web 2.0’ technologies – e.g. social networking software – are changing the face of education and training for disadvantaged people. The project puts together a picture of the ‘landscape’ of ‘Learning 2.0 for Inclusion’ by reviewing what has been done in the academic and research field, as well as by practitioners working on the ground. It uses a series of ‘action research’ experiments, collaborating with host projects working in the field, to evaluate the added contribution Web 2.0 can make to practices that use learning to support social inclusion. The website offers a collection of case studies as well as podcasts on local initiatives such as the Podcasting-Workshop in Senior citizen center of Walser Birnbaum.
