6.	What dissemination activities did you undertake?
Euro-CIDES has presented to local public authorities’ actors (Mayors, Politicians, Representatives, persons in charge of non formal education, social workers,…)  the PIEEC as a new proximity service a Town Hall can offer to its inhabitants for helping them to voluntarily increase their basic knowledge. 

7.	Has the cooperation between the project partners continued after the project lifetime? If yes, please describe briefly how.
Yes, ACRE’ cooperation is partly still running. The network has lost one partner from south Italy because of a local political crisis inside the Council but we have pursued the partnership with the Spanish partner who is actually involved in a working group composed of disabled adults leading as “experts” in regard of pedagogical products, by testing them and validating their quality for specific target groups.

8.	Were the products tested/used outside the initial partnership? If yes, please describe briefly how.
A network of 7 partners (originally they were 9) is actually working on the phase 2 of ACRE project. All testing sites are public local authorities which must make running one (several) PIEEC on their local territories as well as involving new professionals who will be trained to acquire complementary competences for their job of PIEEC’ Facilitators.

9.	Were the products tested/used outside the initial thematic field? If yes, please describe briefly how.
One product has been tested several times outside the initial thematic field. 
In fact, the tool is a grid created by the first three partners as the result of a comparative study born from needs analysis realized on three different territories (rural - IT-, urban - ES -, mixed - FR -).  This grid is an help for professional actors to interpret story of one’s life, specifically adapted to low skilled adults.
The tool has been reinvested  :
•	at university level by a student presenting an autobiographic master’s thesis,
•	by a sociologist guiding audits in organizations such as public services, private companies,...
•	in an EQUAL project developed in Spain.
