"The COVID-19 pandemic has limited the collective creativity because most of the artistic and cultural activities in Europe and elsewhere have been interrupted. On the other hand, the current epidemic has caused social stigma and it has caused the physical and social isolation of people with fewer opportunities.In this context, our project aims to propose innovative solutions to access and develop artistic and cultural initiatives for all. We will create and implement a digital and inclusive platform, designed for dynamic information, training, networking and support for creative initiatives. The ""Multiculti ART"" platform is also part of the development of smart cities in terms of art and culture. It will make activities, visits, meetings and collective creativity possible for youngsters from various backgrounds and by reaching the various citizens of our communities. We will focus on networking (especially among youth), and the creation of tools for the development of creative, artistic and cultural skills. By following this orientation, we wish to anchor the basis of intelligent, artistic, cultural and creative cities with the commitment of diverse and complementary partners.Our 24 months strategic transnational partnership project will be lead with 4 NGO from France, Greece, Belgium and Turkey. It includes the following activities:1- Kick-off meeting in France, gathering all partner’s project manager, to establish the roles, modalities and methods of implementation for this project.2- Preparation and implementation of a survey to identify the expectations and needs for the various stakeholders (organizations, local citizens, artists, local representatives) regarding the development of skills, the accessibility to artistic and cultural activities, as well as benefiting from the smart city in the fields of art and culture.3- Creation of the platform ""MULTICULTI ART"" to develop a diversified network (institutions, associations, local authorities, cultural companies, artists, local decision-makers and youth), with an easier, clearer and dynamic information circulation about local cultural activities. This platform will also support initiatives in the artistic and cultural field. It will be the basis of the smart cities (in art and culture) for the involved communities.4- Creation of E-learning trainings accessible on the platform as micro-learning about social entrepreneurship in this field. 5- Creation of an interactive map (GIS) to promote and visualize the information related to cultural and artistic events, activities and initiatives which take place in the communities of the consortium members.6- A training course in Turkey for artistic and cultural educators from the institutions/ organizations, as well as for cultural stakeholders from the city halls, to develop their digital and pedagogical skills, in order for them to become co-administrators of the platform and e-mentors for the beneficiaries.7- Creation of a mini-tutorial, as an interactive video, which helps anyone to understand the advantages of the artistic and cultural smart city, and use efficiently the platform, contribute to it, and to its dynamism and durability.8- Creation of a promo-video of the platform ""MULTICULTI ART"" to increase the numbers of users.9- a remote mid-term evaluation meeting, with all partner’s project promoter, to share feedbacks and results, and to adjust the following parts of the project in consequence, in order to reach our objectives.10- A seminar in Belgium involving 2 local elected representatives, the participants of the previous training course, one active youth of our platform, from each partner community, and the person in charge of the project from each partner.
