Title:
Innovate Traditions
Dates:
1-9 august 2015
Location:
Baceno, Italy
Participants:
7 participants + 1 leader from Building Bridges Association
Course description
The Municipality of Baceno, through this project, aims to involve young people from 4 different countries (Italy, Spain, Estonia, Lituania) in comparing their views on the theme of new generations future in the European society and in the globalized world. The future is considered in the project as something to be creatively created by the youngsters by strengthening their consciousness about their own resources, and working on their capability to choose and pursuit a personal development path.
We will ask to the youngsters to recount their future, to imagine what sort of adult they would like to became and what sort of society they would like to build all together. With the project activities, such as organized games, simulations, and theoretical confrontations, we want to highlight the relationship between new generations future, new generations creative resources and capabilities and our cultural roots.
In fact the Youth exchange project is adressed to young people interested in developing some self employement chances through crafts, cultural, intergenerational coopeeration projects as well as in improving their community.
Activities
Specifically the project will empower 24 young participants from 4 countries in valuing traditionas as a tool for social inclusion in the community. Most part of the exchange activities will be adressed to enable the yong people to find out ways to play an active role for the preservation of the cultural heritage. We want to push the young people who are sensitive to their traditions and to traditional hand craft to turn this passion in a self employability chance; through sharing of methods and practices in which they can value creativity, recovering of the ancient crafts in a resource to foster sustainable youth enterpreneurship.
The youth exchange will be based also on the proposal and the sharing of some “do it yourself activities”; as well as some “Team work activities” to learn more about new ways of using materials and how to spread it around, to exchange ideas, and experiences with people who share common interests on the project topic.
