In the EU LLP project 2011/2012 “eScouts - Intergenerational Learning Circle for Community Service” (www.eScouts.eu), the ILBES methodology (Intergenerational Learning in Blended Environments and Spaces) was developed and is currently implemented to facilitate the socio-digital inclusion of elderly and the youth joining the labour market and adult life, while improving local community life by means of the intergenerational dialogue and mutual support. Thus, the learning circle enables youth to support elderly people in ICT usage and, in return, seniors mentor the youth in their efforts to access the labour market and to face the challenges of adult life, completing in this way a circle of learning, exchange and conviviality, mediated by ICT, social media, and BLES. ILBES methodology is backed on two consolidated learning methodologiess, Community-Service Learning (CSL) and Participatory and Appreciative Action and Reflection (PAAR), and was tested by a group of EU third sector organisations and telecentres in Spain, United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Bulgaria and Poland.
