The event was attended by 23 participants with different profiles: women entrepreneurs from rural areas, staff of women's enterprises, civil society organizations, providers of adult education.
This event was an opportunity to present the tools and methodologies developed during the project. The ME covered all project outputs, the WIDE OER platform (PR1), the Rural Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Manual (PR2) and the trainings (PR3).
The participants were very interested in the project and the results of the project which contributes to the strengthening of digital and entrepreneurial skills.

On 15th November 2023, the consortium joined the 4th and last Transnational Project Meeting of the WIDE project, which was held virtually.
WIDE – Women Integration through Digital Entrepreneurship – is a project co-funded by the EU Commission through the ErasmusPlus Programme. The initiative, which officially ends in December 2023, successfully reached its objective by equipping women with the tools needed to thrive in a digital age. Partners managed to produce effective training resources, incorporating those skills and competences necessary not only to enhance employability but also to open doors to online entrepreneurship.
The WIDE project has received positive feedback from women and training providers who joined the Test & Validation sessions carried out by partners, in the previous months, to test the quality and relevance of the WIDE Training Toolkit. Moreover, Multiplier Events have been organised in the different partner countries. These initiatives brought together key stakeholders, including policymakers, educators, and community leaders and helped partners in ensuring a long-lasting impact to the project’s results; indeed, they represented a platform to showcase the achievements of the WIDE project, share best practices, and foster collaboration for continued digital empowerment in rural areas.
The Closing Meeting represented an opportunity to share the results of each national T&V session and Multiplier Event. At this stage of the project, the meeting was also relevant for the coordination of the final administrative and financial tasks. Partners’ contributions to the meeting proved that the WIDE project prides itself also on the successful management of all transversal activities, such Dissemiantion, Quality Assurance and overall Project Management. From inception to conclusion, WIDE demonstrated meticulous planning, efficient execution, and effective coordination.

The WIDE Consortium has successfully piloted the four training modules and related resources developed during the first year of project’s implementation, to exhort and support women living in rural areas to create their own online business.
Each partner has reached representatives of the target group and stakeholders at local and national level to test the quality and relevance of the WIDE Training Toolkit and collect feedback. Participants expressed overwhelming satisfaction with the initiative and its concrete results, highlighting its practical approach and real-world relevance.
Encouraged by the success of the pilot sessions, partners committed to expanding the WIDE Training Toolkit to reach more women entrepreneurs in rural areas. For this purpose, the Consortium developed operational and straightforward Guidelines to support trainers and educators in the exploitation of the WIDE training resources. The document is now available online and, by leveraging on the WIDE project’s experience and lessons learnt, guides users through the following topics:
Training programme structure
Structuring training initiatives
Designing training curriculum
Recruitment and enrollment strategies
Attracting and enrolling participants
Effective classroom management
Managing training environments
Final recommendations
Optimizing training in diverse operational settings
