2 OPEN DIGITAL BADGES MANY MORE WAYS TO GO WITH RECOGNITION. In the late 2011 I was introduced to Open Badges. Since becoming a member of Youthpass Recognition Team, I was much involved in promoting Youthpass for the recognition of learning. I can see how Youthpass may bring benefits to learners and how Open Badges can support the Youthpass process. During the last 3 years I was involved in exploring what Open Badges are and how we can adapt them to our youth work activities in Europe. Currently, 3 badge systems created then are still in use now. 06
