NICO-F is an international, sustainable network aiming to disseminate practical tools to promote Facilitation at the European level.

Objectives:

• Strengthening the work of intercultural communication organizations through FACILITATION to improve dialogue and integration within Europe;
• Training the participating program coordinators within an investigative working group, supported by professional FACILITATION trainers;
• Giving the participants the opportunity to work in different constellations and to bring the know-how of different countries together;
• Raising the knowledge about FACILITATION methods within the networks of the participating organisations and the Lifelong Learning Community

The partnership objectives will be achieved by way of the following approaches:

• Establishment of a network of intercultural communication associations willing to use and adapt FACILITATION tools, including trainers already speacialized in FACILITATION;
• Establishment of a team of participants, who will make a needs analysis;
• Identification of the appropriate FACILITATION methods;
• Verification of FACILITATION methods during a one year implementation period, in which each organisation will test these methods within their community and networks;
• Evaluation of this implementation by each organisation and inclusion of staff and trainees into the process
