○ Motivated and willing to learn about organizing and producing cultural events and implement this knowledge in future;

Course description:

The methodology of the learning course is composed in a way to facilitate learning, knowledge and competence sharing and acquiring in an informal setting. The participants will be engaged into the learning process through role­playing games, simulations, researching and group work. There will be theoretical lessons and discussions and thematic workshops which will help understand the topics. During the course the participants will be able to take different social and organizational roles.

The course’s activities will let the participants gain new competences in the topic of youth cultural event organization, and experience for taking up the responsibility to create and implement new cultural event organizing initiatives on the local and international levels.

The program, as mentioned in the title, is structured as eight steps or blocks. These steps will be visualized, and each morning the participants will start the day with taking a symbolic step forward together. Each day is structured into four blocks — morning, day I, day II and evening, each about 1.5 h, with coffee and lunch breaks between them.

The generic timetable: ● 8:00–9:00 — breakfast; ● 9:30–11:00 — morning session; ● 11:00–11:30 — coffee break; ● 11:30–13:00 — day session I; ● 13:30–14:30 — lunch; ● 15:00–16:30 — day session II; ● 16:30—17:00 — coffee break; ● 17:00—18:30 — evening session; ● 19:00—20:00 — dinner and introspections.

The practical result of the participants’ work will be a product — a cultural event, a musical concert, which will also serve as a platform for bringing the local society’s attention to the ESSENCE project, Erasmus+ program, the project’s partners, and a place for interaction with the community.

To maximize the engagement of the local community in the final cultural event, the participants will create and send out press releases, announcements and other activities in social networks, visual invitations. The cultural event will provide the publicity for the concert itself and for the Erasmus+ program. During the preparational works the participants will meet members of the local community, inform them about the cultural event and invite them, strengthening the connections and providing a positive informational background.

Each lesson and workshop ends with its evaluation structured as follows: 1. Participants comments: a. positive elements of the activity; b. things that need changing. 2. Trainers comments: a. positive elements of the activity; b. things that need changing. 3. Comments about the possible method adaptation to work on the related topics in future in participants’ local communities. Before the course the participants will do some preparation: 1. think about the characteristics of the cultural events in their countries, provide examples; 2. take some of the local­branded candy; 3. think about questions they would like to get answers to from the guest experts (the list of guest experts and the meeting topics will be distributed to the partners).
