“Needs Analysis & Problem Identification for High-Quality EU Projects” is an essential masterclass dedicated to the most decisive phase of any EU-funded initiative: correctly identifying the problem, analysing its causes, understanding the context, and demonstrating clear relevance to European policies and priorities.In EU project development, the strongest proposals are not born from creative ideas alone — they are built on robust evidence, well-structured analysis, and a deep understanding of the real needs of learners, schools, organisations, or communities. This course provides a rigorous, practical and research-informed framework for conducting needs assessments that form the backbone of high-quality applications.
Participants explore how to gather and interpret data, analyse gaps, consult stakeholders, map local and European priorities, and articulate the rationale behind a project with precision and credibility. The programme combines methodologies from policy analysis, project management, education development, and organisational improvement to help participants understand not only what problem they want to address, but also why it matters and how it aligns with EU funding logic.
Through case studies, guided exercises, and structured analysis tools, educators and project developers gain the clarity, confidence and methodological competence needed to transform ideas into strong, relevant, EU-aligned project concepts. By mastering the foundational processes of needs identification and evidence-based justification, participants significantly increase the quality, relevance, and ultimately the success rate of their future project proposals.
