DIP
DIP serves as a methodology and epistemic partner in European consortia
We help partners frame complex challenges, design research and intervention architectures, and build robust evaluation frameworks at the intersection of democracy, cognition, and social resilience.
DIP brings together people, scientific approaches, and artistic creativity.
We work where new meaning takes shape: in dialogue, collaboration, and the shared search for answers across people, institutions, and cultures. Our innovative methodologies help shift from reaction to foresight—and see the future as something created today, through concrete solutions and collective action.
The organisation was established in 2022. The team has prior experience in projects funded by the European Commission ( Erasmus+, CERV etc).
Our Role in European Consortia
In EU-funded projects (Horizon Europe, Erasmus+, CERV), DIP operates at the level of methodological and epistemic architecture.We move beyond content delivery to ensure that the project’s design, indicators, and impact logic are sound, coherent, and actionable.
We typically contribute as:
We map manipulation patterns and narrative distortions, then translate findings into evidence-based tools, trainings and policy briefs.
Outputs: Youth/Community Labs, counter-narrative toolkits, early-warning briefs for cities.
Indicators: trust checks, quality-of-engagement, reduction in share-intention.
We strengthen value–action consistency and protective social norms to grow information and social resilience.
Outputs: Values-in-Motion modules, resilience playbooks, educator training.
Indicators: pre/post value alignment, resilience profiles, replication in partner institutions.
We identify loneliness configurations and vulnerability patterns to support wellbeing and participation without stigma.Outputs: light screening tools, referral/safeguarding protocols, group workshops.Indicators: wellbeing scores, participation/retention rates, referral follow-through.
We create safe participation spaces and facilitation processes that turn debate into shared decisions and local action.
Outputs: dialogue position maps, community forums, policy co-design sessions.
Indicators: diversity of voices, agreements reached, actions implemented by municipalities/schools.
We build the capacity to spot opportunities and craft unique, most-effective solutions in fast-changing environments—individually and in teams.
Outputs: creative scene mapping, micro-innovation sprints, prototyping labs.
Indicators: prototypes piloted, adoption by host organisations, learner self-efficacy gains.

DIP
In projects on this topic, DIP provides:problem framing for consortia, design of mixed-method evaluation,and logic models linking activities to societal impact indicators.
We provide methodological models for analysing lived experience, designing field instruments, and connecting psychosocial data to policy-relevant indicators.
We work with creativity as a methodological resource, designing experimental formats and evaluation models for innovation and social resilience.
We design dialogical methodologies, evaluation logic, and field-tested formats that connect participation processes with measurable outcomes.
We contribute by translating value-based concepts into measurable frameworks, indicators, and applied methodologies usable in EU projects.
• Our Research Hub adds rigor: publications and reports (DOI where possible), two-page policy briefs, concise methods & data notes, and ethics-by-design (GDPR, DPIA, accessibility). • Independent advisors review quality quarterly.
• We combine research, design, pilots, and scale, working across more than 15 countries. • We operate end-to-end: from comparative studies, field research and evaluations to full-scale programmes with schools, cities, NGOs and media. • Our portfolio spans longitudinal research and policy analysis, educator training and city-level interventions, as well as creative labs that translate insight into services and tools. • This breadth — combining research depth with implementation capacity — lets partners rely on evidence that is actionable, shareable, and ready to scale.

Integrated End-to-End Model
DIP
Our project portfolio reflects a sequence of methodological and epistemic roles, rather than a list of activities.
In each initiative, DIP’s core contribution lies in framing the approach, designing tools and indicators, and creating replicable evaluation frameworks — enabling partners to scale impact beyond the pilot phase.
WARRIOR — Warrior’s Values (2023–2025)
warriorproject.eu
Ref. N. 2023-1-IT03-KA220-YOU-000153640
Programme: Erasmus+ cooperation partnership in youth
Partnership: EURO-NET (Italy) - project coordinator, DIP (Poland), Innoved (Greece), Erasmus Me Academy (Germany), UCF (Ukraine)
Young people spend much of their lives online, where targeted feeds and “filter bubbles” amplify one-sided content and increase exposure to propaganda and manipulation. The most effective influence tactics tap into deep personal values and emotions. Aligned with our mission to build resilience and public trust, WARRIOR helps youth recognise these levers and respond with informed, value-consistent choices.
We turned research on youth media behaviour into co-designed, piloted learning modules that combine:
Values work (surfacing personal values and value–action consistency);
Emotional literacy (spotting triggers before they steer judgement);
Verification in real contexts (practising checks on live content).
● Pilot course for young people on recognising manipulation and fake● “Fraud Identifier” training for youth workers.● Open e-handbook “Trickeries Guide.”● Public information days in Greece, Germany, Poland and Ukraine.● Final Anti-Fraud Festival in Italy.● Project website and four newsletters with open resources.
The materials are designed for reuse: one shared structure suggested baseline–midline–endline checks, and an open toolkit that organisations can localise while keeping results comparable and measurable.
Empowering Voices: Ukrainian Refugees and Social Co-creation (EMPOWER)
Programme/Call: Erasmus+ small-scale partnership in adult education (KA210-ADU)
Partnership: DIP (Poland)- project coordinator, UCC (Germany)
Europe is facing its largest refugee and humanitarian crisis since WWII. By 2023, Poland hosted ~1.55 million refugees from Ukraine. A substantial share are women and children who, despite favourable policies (e.g., immediate work eligibility) and generally high qualifications, encounter specific integration barriers: care responsibilities, risk of exploitation, family separation, and uncertainty about length of stay. Beyond basic integration, disinformation around migration polarises communities and undermines trust. In line with our mission to strengthen social resilience and public trust, EMPOWER develops skills that reduce tension and increase meaningful participation, directly connecting to our disinformation & influence, and dialogue & democratic culture clusters.
We translate research on integration and social cohesion into co-designed, piloted learning modules that combine:● Dialogue skills (listening, turn-taking, shared decisions in mixed groups);● Creativity for everyday problem-solving (navigating unfamiliar systems, micro-innovations);● Co-creation with local actors (NGOs, educators, municipalities), with practice in local languages.
As a methodology centre, we provide clear protocols, light indicator sets (participation, confidence/self-efficacy, quality-of-engagement), and an open toolkit so partners in other countries can adopt and scale.
● Result 1 — Training “Creative Pathways: Navigating a New Reality”.
Interlinked modules (dialogue, creativity, co-creation, interaction) delivered across Poland, Czechia and Germany; ≥60 participants with pre/post measurement.● Result 2 — Practical Guide “Pathways to Integration: Creative Tools for NGOs and Migrants”.
Three parts: evidence-based guidelines (~15 pp), handbook (~10 pp), best practices (~5 pp); in English and translated for partner countries; open access for replication.● Final national conferences to share tools with NGOs, educators and local authorities, securing uptake beyond the pilot.
All materials follow one shared structure. Outputs are released with open resources and validation labels (piloted / ready for wider use), enabling NGOs and cities to localise while keeping results comparable and measurable.
Job Reboot: Succeeding in a Changed World (Warsaw, 2024)
Programme/Call: National grant (Warsaw), POP Fund
DIP: Applicant & Coordinator
Our value: methodology-led career integration programme for refugee women (training, mentoring, light indicators) + open tri-lingual resource.
Women with refugee experience (primarily from Ukraine, also Belarus) face layered barriers to work: language gaps, care duties, social isolation and uncertainty. In line with our mission to build resilience and public trust, the project strengthens dialogue, creativity and participation so women can navigate local systems and (re)start careers — reducing vulnerability and improving inclusion in host communities.
We translated needs analysis into a co-designed, piloted path:● Group training (10 sessions / 20h): talents & career planning, learning how to upskill, job search, entrepreneurship, finance basics, networking, adapting to Polish work culture.● Individual support (2h per participant): psycho-social counselling and tailored career/enterprise consultations.● Short Polish course (6h): labour-market vocabulary.Integration mentor (≥2h): local professional supports each participant’s steps into work/education.● Open e-brochure (PL/UA/EN): career pathways guide incl. labour-market glossary and self-regulation tips.All elements follow one structure (objectives → roles → timing → activities) with light indicators (participation, wellbeing/psycho-social support, career steps).
● Two training cohorts (≈30 women) in Warsaw; mixed on-site/online delivery in cooperation with local centres.● Counselling & mentoring for each participant; short Polish course completed.● E-brochure published in three languages and distributed to NGOs and community channels.● Feedback targets: ≥80% positive course evaluations; 300+ brochure downloads (tracked).
All materials follow one shared structure. Outputs are released with open resources and validation labels (piloted / ready for wider use), enabling NGOs and cities to localise while keeping results comparable and measurable.
