Socially disadvantaged people as „experts by experiences”. This project, realised from 2018, involves people with various disadvantages (addiction, homelessness, anorexia, etc…) in the courses for students of Social work programme. Experts by experience have a history of using social services. Now they act as „co-teachers“. They share their life experiences with students through storytelling method and help students to identify the needs of people in difficult life situations. Through involvement of disadvantaged people students improve their skills and competences, especially their ability to communicate and to be oriented in different fields of social work practice. The project at the same time offers a prestigious work opportunity for disadvantaged people. Experts by experience are trained in storytelling participatory method, which helps them to integrate their difficult experience within their life story and openly communicate about it. Currently the platform of experts by experience consists of 9 people. They are a part of 15 courses and cooperate with 12 professor assistants. The project is run by a support team that consists of 2 academician and 2 PhD students. The team functions as an intermediary between experts by experience and teachers of selected courses.
