We are doing science for policy
The Joint Research Centre (JRC) is the European Commission's science and knowledge service which employs scientists to carry out research in order to provide independent scientific advice and support to EU policy.
LifeComp is a conceptual framework. It is non-prescriptive and can be used as a basis for the development of curricula and learning activities.
The framework describes nine competences (P1-3, S1-3, L1-3) that are structured in 3 intertwined competence areas:
Awareness and management of emotions, thoughts and behaviour
Ability to manage transitions and uncertainty, and to face challenges
Pursuit of life satisfaction, care of physical, mental and social health, and adoption of a sustainable lifestyle
The understanding of another person’s emotions, experiences and values, and the provision of appropriate responses
Use of relevant communication strategies, domain-specific codes and tools depending on the context and the content
Engagement in group activity and teamwork acknowledging and respecting others
Belief in one’s and others’ potential to continuously learn and progress
Assessment of information and arguments to support reasoned conclusions and develop innovative solutions
The planning, organising, monitoring and reviewing of one's own learning
