Passed the Test
In the year 2009, the Nueva test was carried out in Prague, Berlin and Baerum/Oslo. In all three countries, groups of people with learning difficulties and disabilities adapted a part of the Nueva questionnaire for their region. Subsequently, this section was tested in short interviews with users of different institutions.
The preparation for this project was led by Austrian Nueva evaluators and by evaluators and assistants from the respective country.
Even though the different languages turned out to be a big challenge, all involved are convinced: "We want to carry on."
The next steps have already been planned, respectively are being implemented. Likewise, specialists from all over the Czech Republic are going to meet in order to discuss Nueva. The responsible people of Baerum Municipality are already negotiating the financial plan for a realisation of Nueva in Norway.
It is still a long way to go, but the Nueva network is beginning to spread out beyond the borders of Austria.
