Dear friends!
Our nongovernmental organisation ACHO wants to prepare 8 day training course from the 1st to the 8th of June 2013.
ACHO
is an NGO which helps people to use their leisure-time actively through art,
dance and crafts. It organizes courses, (holiday) workshops, (summer) camps,
festivals, presentations, seminars, and many other things. The target group is
youth, but adults are welcomed as well.
The training
will take place in the Dancing
Cottage in a village called Miloslavov
situated in the south-western part of
GPS –
Grassroots Prop-art for Social-move
By using creative artistic methods we will explore possibilities to
spread own ideas such are:
-
Social
action
-
Rural
development
-
Saving
environment
-
Matters
you are interested in.
The
main theme of our project is ´media and communications/youth information´ and
´urban/rural development, so how to successfully spread information for the
rural and urban social development – creatively
and artistically. How to propagate an action
from below for the social matters throughout artistic methods, so that it
leaves visible footprint – that is the question we propose
to answer. Plus we will make the effort to create eco-friendly community. Inseparable parts of the project will be also visits, cooperation, and
working with other governmental and non-governmental entities in small villages of West Slovak region and
Bratislava and also presentation – and its propagation - of the project
outcomes and activities for the local community. We aim to work all together
during the project and, as an outcome, not only the performance, but also get a
bundle of exercises, methods, and tools to use in work with young people, for young people, or for local community.
