<< Objectives >>Tourism and performing arts are fundamental sectors for their impact, not only on the economy and employment as a source of innovation, but to generate a positive social impact also in other areas such as inclusion, urban renewal and education. The objective is therefore the consolidation between the parties to generate a value and quality touristic offer and to converge in an innovative way towards a single objective that sees together the territory development and travel experience.<< Implementation >>The project includes 3 macro activities:- The project kick-off meeting will be held in person to establish points, risks and interpersonal relationships.- Training in e-learning mode, so as to give as many people as possible the opportunity to participate even from European countries that are not project partners.- Transnational mobility. The workshop will be held with the project participants. This action is taken after training to test the real skills acquired in the field.<< Results >>Expected results are:- creation of European partnerships - deepening of European priorities and objectives- achievement of cross-sectoral skills, both in the tourism and digital fields, which will allow the opening of new professional growth opportunities that will contribute, thanks to the co-working and co-creation formula, to the development of a tourism offer that protects the territory, generate development and guarantee experiential quality and knowledge to tourists.

Rationale of the projectThousands of society members in different regions of Europe, especially young people on the move, have to solve their daily issues with alimentation. Erasmus students, young people in the beginning of their career, free movers, daily workers or unemployed people can not afford to eat qualitaly each day. Lots of them end up eating fast food or semi-prepared products, often of poor quality. General longer term objective The project aims to promote healthy cooking patterns of easy but quality recipes to push people to make and create their own healthy meals instead of going to fast food chains or buying semi-prepared food. Specific objective of the projectThe project’s objective is to set up a collaborative multi platform interactive tool (web interface followed by the interactive applications for touch screen devices and a printable eBook edition) presenting recipes adapted to the identified needs. With the multi-platform project we intend to show an alternative way to improve quality of people's lives, reduce dependence on the consumption system and make them active and self-sufficient for their own life and their own health.ActivitiesThe collaborative work process is focussed on compilation of food research, development of healthy life patterns and recipes collection, as well as on media creation, creativity, innovation and strategic use of information technologies. In collaboration with young professionals, structures and a designed community we will research and establish the principal criteria for the choice of recipes, such as the easiness (time limit, dish limit, material limit, storage), affordability (price) of finished meal, limited number of ingredients, nutritious quality and learning process (some competence or basic cooking skills for future experimentation should be given). Based on similar criteria we will look for and collect recipes, which will have to be verified afterwards. We design a research summary that will serve also as an introduction about alimentary systems, about food and its importance. During the program, a series of cooking workshops will be held for local target groups in the partner countries. During the Transnational Project Meetings all partners will test the recipes in practice and will document all activities. A final manifesto including informations on how to organize similar local events, how to work and involve people will be published on our website. The dissemination of our project will start with the creation of a web interface with an interactive collection of recipes and food-related information. During the whole process we will discuss all issues and consider feedback from the community in order to produce a tool responding directly to our target group's needs. A management community and its rules, including technical aspects, will be set up at the final stage of the project.Sustainability of the projectThe project's sustainability will be assured by the active collaborative community around the project and by the renewal of users, based on a sustainable crowd sourcing model.The aim is to guarantee an autonomous and independent e-community which will contribute to the project's continuity and future development. With the sustainable crowd sourcing model and a sustainable and self-powered tool management, the project community will have a constant renewal of users and continuous promotion.Partnership“Veni Vidi Comedi : The Cooking Europe Project” is a project undertaken, set up and carried out by young people. A partnership of 4 countries and 5 different partners is established: Luxembourg (Lisel), Italy (Fuori Programma), Greece (CulturePolis & Creative Web Applications) and Latvia (Social Innovation Centre) will participate in the project.The coordinating organisation Lisel is an association for students initiatives and services and during all project activities Lisel will cover Central European, Slavic and Germanic countries. Fuori Programma, a non-profit young association which focuses on the promotion of young people's needs, will cover Mediterranean & English speaking countries. CulturePolis, a forum for culture sustainability and innovation, represents the Balkan region. Social Innovation Centre establishes the networking for social innovation thus enhancing the sustainable development of society and covers the Baltic and Nordic countries. Creative Web Applications is an IT startup company providing solutions for Internet applications and has experience in developing websites and apps.Each of the 5 partners works with young people and pushes the youth to be active in society. Most of the structures work closely with EVS and have networks of youth volunteers in the regions they cover as well as connections with supporting structures that will help to bring the project to a successful end.

The Creative and Cultural Sector belongs to those segments of society which are mostly effected by the 2020 novel COVID-19 crisis, causing an enormous social turbulence in European society: EU citizens experience the ‘new normality’ of staying at home and living under lockdown. While human interaction has been seriously wounded under these critical circumstances, EU values for social cohesion, inclusion, intercultural dialogue, community engagement, understanding of the “other” and tolerance, all of them conveyed by arts and culture, are into a great challenge. The project READ-IN-CLUB: READ-INg for CuLtUres across Borders – includes 6 partners (CulturePolis, Hellenic Foundation for Culture, iTSTudy, Slovene Writers’Association, Srsen Ivan - Sandorf Publishing and iED) from 5 different countries (Greece, Hungary, Slovene, Croatia and Cyprus) and derives from the need to equip our society with those skills and competences which are essential to ensuring a swift and smooth recovery from the crisis. In READ-IN-CLUB, the art of literature and the institution of book clubs and reading communities, together with the power of digital technology, comprise powerful facilitators of informal learning and dialogue and create a supportive cultural environment where people are encouraged to become innovators and effective lifelong learners. In this context, READ-IN-CLUB targets professionals of the book industry who organize and coordinate the operation of reading clubs or other educational activities related to literature: writers, authors, translators, directors and representatives of private and public libraries, moderators of reading clubs/book clubs, managers of publishing houses and literary organizations, publishers, editors; its objectives are to: a)Develop a cross-sectoral approach for cooperation - established in the EU values which are generated and conveyed by the art of literature. b)Address the challenge of ingraining the educational aspect of reading clubs for social inclusion and intercultural dialogue in the “digital, post- COVID agenda” of the book industry stakeholders. c)Qualify reading clubs coordinators through enhancing their training skills and digital competences and rendering them “Lit.Mentors” of intercultural dialogue. d)Develop and deliver a digital reading club platform, innovative training materials and content methodologies for successfully meeting the needs of reading clubs coordinators and their communities and empower them at all levels. The activities include the production of the following intellectual outputs; READ-IN-CLUB Research Report (IO1), the Virtual Training Seminars for «Lit.Mentors» (IO2), the #Read-IN-ClubDigital (IO3),and the READ-IN-CLUB e-Manual (IO4).

"Project ""Creating spaces for creativity - SPACES"" will be implemented by six partners from five countries: Foundation of Education Development SPATIA (NGO, Poland), IX Liceum Ogólnokształcące im. Wisławy Szymborskiej w Sosnowcu (school, Poland), Malatya Bilim Ve Sanat Merkezi (educational centre, Turkey), Edmund Rice College (school, Ireland), Escola Básica e Secundária Padre Manuel Álvares (school, Portugal), CulturePolis (NGO, Greece).Its main objective is supporting the development of creativity of students and teachers / educators through the exchange and dissemination of good practices and the creation of 3 intellectual outputs by 6 partners of the cross-sector consortium in the period from 01/04/2021 - 31/03/2023.Detailed objectives:- building a network of cooperation between 6 organizations diverse in terms of culture, competence, sector and experience, which will allow for the synergy effect;- strengthening cooperation between project partners, including between organizations operating in the field of formal, informal and non-formal education;- increasing students' knowledge of how to learn creatively;- increasing educators and teachers' knowledge of how to teach creatively;- increasing students' awareness of appreciating culture and nature as sources of inspiration for work and study;- developing the results of intellectual work that will contribute to the creation of a friendly, learning space in educational institutions.The project consortium will work out 3 intellectual outputs:1) How to learn creatively? - handbook for secondary schools students2) How to teach creatively? - handbook for teachers and educators3) How to build creative space? - teaching materials, recommendations.In the project there are also planned short staff joint training events and dissemination workshop in all participating countries. The project aims to contribute to the use of innovative tools and novel didactic methods in education (formal and informal), thus improving its overall quality and relevance. Achieving this goal will involve international experience and various profiles of involved institutions. The project aims to contribute to the creation of a friendly space for the development of creative thinking skills and quick adaptation through the exchange of experiences and good practices in this area between non-governmental organizations, educational institutions and organizations from the cultural and creative sector that deals with formal, informal and non-formal education. The aim of the consortium is also to develop international recommendations and solutions that will contribute to a permanent increase in the skills of independent, reflective and creative thinking among young people (secondary school students), who will soon enter the labor market and will face the choice of a career path. It will be possible thanks to supporting educators and youth workers in using the tools and methods of creative learning.Modernization and internationalization processes will strengthen the capacity building. The project's idea supports innovation and new educational solutions through international partnerships and inter- and transdisciplinary approaches. The project assumes that the created course will be universal, and the results of intellectual work will be available in English and in the partners' national languages. Thanks to the involvement of partners from different countries and various organizations, the results of the project will have an international dimension and can be used not only in the countries of the project partners, but also by educators from other EU countries. International cooperation will ensure the multicultural nature of the exchange of good practices, taking into account the experiences in the field of formal, informal and non-formal education of organizations from different regions of Europe."
