Riza Performing Arts GbR (Germany), Etaireia Symvouleftikis Ypostirixis kai Politistikon Drastiriotiton EN ARMONIA (Greece), Association-Compagnie NOURA (France)
are organising a blended training activity as part of the implementation of the "Raising adults’ environmental consciousness through creative training by redefining the human-nature relationship" project and are inviting 24 adult trainers in art and humanities. It will take place on Skiathos Island in Greece from July 1 until July 11, 2024, in an exterior place in nature, which will be equipped by the Municipality of Skiathos.
In this activity, 24 adult trainers in art and humanities (12 with fewer opportunities) and 6 staff members (2 from each partner) will participate for 10 days. The 24 adult trainers will be selected by this open call. Eight (8) will be selected by RIZA (4 with fewer opportunities), 8 by EN ARMONIA (4 with fewer opportunities) and 8 by NOURA (4 with fewer opportunities).
The criteria for the selection of the 24 adult trainers will be the following:
- to be adult trainers in art (dance, theatre, dance-theatre) and humanities (literature, philosophy, sociology), with half of them to be adult trainers with fewer opportunities,
- good communication in English,
- permission to travel around Europe,
- interest in sharing and promoting the results of the project,
- gender balance.
Through this activity, the participants, the partners and the target group will benefit by:
- raising awareness about environmental and climate change challenges and redefining the human-nature relationship through an art-based training module,
- promoting equal opportunities by involving participants with fewer opportunities in the project,
- developing environmental consciousness, adopting sustainable practices.
The expected results of this activity are:
- improvement of the capacity of adult trainers to teach adult learners to become environmentally conscious through creative methods,
- enhancement of the ability of adult trainers to support adult learners to raise awareness about environmental and climate change challenges and redefine their relationship with nature through an art-based training module,
- promotion of environmentally sustainable and responsible behavior by integrating sustainable practices in this activity,
- enhancement of diversity awareness and promotion of equal opportunities and access, inclusion and fairness by involving participants with fewer opportunities in this activity,
- reinforcement of cooperation with partners and participants from other countries,
- enhancement of the access of open source art-based training tools to adult trainers and learners, including those with fewer opportunities, thus reducing disparities and promoting social inclusion.
In this blended training activity, the three organisations will cover the cost of the accommodations and meals of the participants for 10 days on Skiathos Island. Also, each France-based and Germany-based participant will receive 300 euros for travel expenses and each Greece-based participant will receive 180 euros for travel expenses.
Obligations of the participants:
Before this activity, the participants will be trained virtually for one month by the 3 partners.
The participants will be advised before travel to issue a European Health Insurance Card.
The participants will participate in daily workshops taught by the staff members of the three participating organisations who will use a digital handbook and a case study as a training tool. This art-based training tool aims to help the participants to develop their professional skills and capacities, using as a tool the digital handbook and the case study.
At the end of this blended training activity, the participants will evaluate the quality of the organisation of this activity, its content and its impact on them.
