CCUV is an Erasmus+ project. It is the first time Inclusion Ireland
has been involved in an Erasmus+ project. CCUV stands for: “Capito! Compris! Understood! Verstanden!” These words mean “understood” in different languages.
We work with organisations and universities from different countries: Austria, France, Italy and Switzerland.
The project aims to develop common standards to translate language into three different levels of difficulty: B1 for plain language, A2 for easy-to-read language and A1 for the easiest level.

Curriculum
This curriculum provides the foundations for a course made for future Easy-to-read (ETR) training instructors. It can be used by organisations to train individuals with Easy-to-read needs. Following the course, participants can collaborate with other instructors (most often, individuals without ETR needs) as “co-trainers” to teach future Easy-to-Read translators.
There are also podcasts that explore easy to read across Austria, France, Ireland and Italy. You can listen to them here
