SHINE 2Europe and the National Association of Informal Carers (ANCI), signed a cooperation protocol under the project YoungCare – Relief for Younger People in Need of Care and their Informal Carers.    

ANCI is a Portuguese association that aims to defend the interests of Portuguese Informal Caregivers and the implementation of public policies to protect them, namely the Statute of the Informal Caregiver.    

YoungCare is an Erasmus+ project, which aims to promote strategies to improve the situation of informal carers and adult people (between 18 and 65 years old) who need their care. An online, low-threshold and easily accessible learning offer will be developed, with fun elements and learning units. To make this offer as relevant as possible for the target audience in question, SHINE will rely on the valuable input of the ANCI to bring in the voice of informal carers and co-create elements for the training.
