ABOUT THE GRUNDTVIG WORKSHOPS - LEARNER MOBILITY 

Grundtvig Workshops are one of the actions in the Grundtvig Programme which have been 

launched in 2009. 

The objective of this action is to enable adult learners to participate in Workshops (learning events 

and seminars) taking place in another European country participating in the Lifelong Learning 

Programme. 

This is a form of individual mobility offered to adult learners in the Lifelong Learning Programme. 

The Grundtvig Workshops bring together individuals or small groups of learners from several 

countries for a multinational learning experience relevant for their personal development and 

learning needs. 

A minimum of 10 up to a maximum of 20 learners in total from countries other than that in which 

the Workshop is being organised, can be funded. 

Workshops will last a minimum of 5 days (excluding travel), up to maximum 10 days and take 

place between 1/9/2012 and 31/8/2013. 

The Workshop Organiser is responsible for organising the Workshop, its advertisement, the 

recruitment of learners, their travel and appropriate board and lodging. 

PROFILE OF THE LEARNERS 

The Workshops are open to any adult citizen; however, particular attention is given to including 

people from vulnerable social groups and in marginal contexts, in particular older people and 

those who have left education without basic qualifications, in order to give these 

disadvantaged social groups alternative opportunities to access adult education. The action is 

open to any adult person who is a national of or permanently residing (or registered as refugee or 

asylum-seeker) in one of the Programme countries, namely: the 27 Member States of the European 

Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland (EFTA-EEA countries), Croatia and Turkey 

(candidate countries). Participants must come from at least three different participating countries, in 

addition to the host country, and no more than 1/3 of the participants should originate from the 

1

same country. Nationals of the country where the Workshop takes place are eligible to participate in 

the Workshop but cannot be funded through Grundtvig.

CATALOGUE D'ATELIERS DE GRUNDTVIG 

2012 - 2013 

LES ATELIERS DE GRUNDTVIG - MOBILITÉ D'APPRENANTS ADULTES 

Les Ateliers de Grundtvig est une des actions dans le programme de Grundtvig qui ont été lancées 

en 2009. 

L'objectif de cette action est de permettre aux apprenants adultes de participer à des Ateliers (des 

groupes de travail et des séminaires d'apprentissage) ayant lieu dans un autre pays européen 

participant au Programme pour l'Education et la Formation tout au long de la Vie. 

Il s'agit d'une forme de mobilité offerte aux apprenants adultes dans le cadre du Programme de 

formation permanente. Les Ateliers Grundtvig rassemblent des personnes ou de petits groupes 

d'apprenants adultes de plusieurs pays pour une expérience d'apprentissage multinationale, 

appropriée à leurs besoins de développement et d'apprentissage personnels. 

Un minimum de 10 et un maximum de 20 apprenants des pays autres que le pays dans lequel 

l'Atelier est organisé, peuvent être financés. 

Les Ateliers dureront un minimum de 5 jours (à l'exclusion du voyage) et maximum 10 jours et ils 

auront lieu entre 1er septembre 2012 et 31 août 2013. 

L'organisateur d'un Atelier est responsable d'organiser cet Atelier, sa publicité, le recrutement des 

apprenants, leur voyage et leur logement pension. 

PROFIL DES APPRENANTS 

L'action est ouverte à tout citoyen adulte. Néanmoins, une attention particulière sera accordée 

aux candidats appartenant à des groupes sociaux vulnérables et/ou marginalisés. Les 

personnes âgées et/ou les personnes ayant quitté l'école sans avoir acquis les qualifications de 

base seront particulièrement prises en compte, afin de leur offrir des activités alternatives 

d'éducation pour adultes. L'action est ouverte à tout citoyen adulte qui est un ressortissant de ou 

résident de manière permanente (ou enregistré comme réfugié ou demandeur d'asile) dans l'un des 

pays participant au Programme, à savoir : les 27 États membres de l'Union européenne, l'Islande, le 

Liechtenstein, la Norvège, la Suisse (pays AELE-EEE), la Croatie et la Turquie (pays candidats). 

Les participants doivent venir d'au moins trois différents pays participants, en plus du pays 

3

d'accueil, et pas plus de 1/3 des participants devraient venir du même pays. Les ressortissants du 

pays où l'Atelier a lieu sont éligibles pour participer à l'Atelier mais ne peuvent pas être financés par

PROGRAMM DER EUROPÄISCHEN UNION FÜR 

MOBILITÄT UND ZUSAMMENARBEIT IN DER ERWACHSENENBILDUNG 

KATALOG DER GRUNDTVIG-WORKSHOPS 

2012 - 2013 

DIE GRUNDTVIG-WORKSHOPS – MOBILITÄT DER LERNENDEN 

Die Grundtvig-Workshops gehören zu den Maßnahmen im Rahmen des Programms Grundtvig, die 

2009 angelaufen sind. 

Mit dieser Maßnahme soll es erwachsenen Lernenden ermöglicht werden, an Workshops 

(Weiterbildungsveranstaltungen und Seminaren) in einem anderen europäischen Land, das sich am 

Programm für lebenslanges Lernen beteiligt, teilzunehmen. 

Damit steht eine Mobilitätsform für erwachsene Lernende im Rahmen des Programms für 

lebenslanges Lernen zur Verfügung. Die Grundtvig-Workshops führen Einzelpersonen oder kleine 

Gruppen von Lernenden aus mehreren Ländern zu einer multinationalen Lernerfahrung zusammen, 

die für ihre persönliche Entwicklung und ihre Lernbedürfnisse relevant ist. 

Mindestens 10 und höchstens 20 Lernende aus anderen Ländern als dem Land, in dem der 

Workshop veranstaltet wird, können bezuschusst werden. 

Die Workshops dauern mindestens 5 und höchstens 10 Tage (ohne An- und Abreise); sie finden 

zwischen dem 1.9.2012 und dem 31.8.2013 statt. 

Der Organisator des Workshops ist für dessen Durchführung, die Werbung, die Rekrutierung der 

Lernenden, ihre An- und Abreise sowie eine angemessene Unterkunft und Verpflegung zuständig. 

PROFIL DER LERNENDEN 

Die Maßnahme steht allen erwachsenen Bürgern und Bürgerinnen offen. Allerdings gilt der 

Einbeziehung von Menschen aus benachteiligten und marginalisierten sozialen Milieus, 

insbesondere Älteren und Menschen ohne bzw. mit geringer (Grund-)Qualifikation besondere 

Aufmerksamkeit, um ihnen alternative Zugänge zur Erwachsenenbildung zu ermöglichen. 

Die Maßnahme steht allen erwachsenen Bürgern und Bürgerinnen offen die die Staatsangehörigkeit 

eines der Programmländer besitzen oder ihren ständigen Wohnsitz in einem dieser Länder haben 

(bzw. dort als Flüchtlinge oder Asylsuchende registriert sind); Programmländer sind: die 

27 Mitgliedstaaten der Europäischen Union, Island, Liechtenstein, Norwegen, die Schweiz (EFTA- 

5

EWR-Länder) und Kroatien und die Türkei (Bewerberländer). Die Teilnehmer müssen aus 

mindestens drei verschiedenen Teilnehmerländern zusätzlich zu dem Gastland kommen; höchstens 

ein Drittel der Teilnehmer sollte aus demselben Land stammen. Staatsangehörige des Landes, in 

dem der Workshop stattfindet, kommen für die Teilnahme am Workshop in Frage, können aber 

keine Grundtvig-Zuschüsse erhalten.

Mentoring School Children – A Job For Volunteers / Schüler/innen- 

Mentoring – eine Aufgabe für Freiwillige 

Subject area: Learning opportunities for people at risk of social marginalisation 

Intercultural education 

Volunteering 

Working language(s): EN 

Target Group + Translation: 

Adult learners, non experts. 

Mentoring is widely discovered as a very effective strategy of inspiring non-formal learning for 

disadvantaged school children. A lot of risks and difficulties children may have because of 

migration or/and a poor background with few opportunities, can be improved by mentoring. 

Mentoring is not necessarily a business of specialists with long term trainings. Mentoring can be 

given to school children, for example with migrational background, after a short term training. In 

the Workshop we are going to learn more about different concepts and try to develop guidelines of 

effective mentoring school schildren and we will assemble a toolkit for setting up a mentoring 

network of volunteers at the place we are active in our everyday lifes. 

Main activities Programme + Programme translation: 

The workshop will provide know-how in a very old and effective technic of learning and 

transmitting knowledge from an older person to a younger one. In the Greek myths, Mentor, 

Odysseus´friend, did it to Odysseus`son Telemachos, while Odysseus was out on the sea. So he was 

the name-giving historical figure for a concept that works until now. 

Lessons about basics of mentoring / practical exercises on mentoring school children / different 

concepts on mentoring in different countries / guidelines of good mentoring / Analysis of benefits 

achieved by mentoring / creating an mentoring network

Venue: Vienna Date of the Workshop: 24/03/2013 - 30/03/2013 

Pimp My Europe. Ideas for Refreshing Europe 

Subject area: Basic skills for adult learners 

European citizenship and European dimension 




Adults interested in sharing and promoting creative ideas and common values, – specially persons 

with a migration background (external or inner European) and/or persons interested in migration 

and social issues in its widest sense including language, – people motivated by a creative 

intercultural exchange, who whish to strengthen their communication skills in the European 

context. 


„Pimp My Europe. Ideas for Refreshing Europe“ will be a methodical and informal handling, 

assessing and enhancing of ideas proposed by each of the participants in a short and succinct 

presentation during the workshop. In a further step those ideas will be re-worked in the group in 

order to empower and encourage the participants to present them on video and to promote them 

through social media. The core ideas that are going to be presented should be of personal concern 

and social relevance, in the scope of our daily experience, simple and refreshing. With regard to the 

topics of personal concern a number of thematic fields are going to be suggested in the form of 

mind maps and questions. (These topics will be published on a website to be accessed upon 

registration for the workshop.) It will be the task of the participant to identify aspects of this 

personal concern in his daily experience. By recognising the core element of his daily experience he 

will be able to simplify and articulate original ideas in a new form. These ideas are the material for 

a short presentation aiming to illustrate the concern of the person and creating awareness about it. If 

these ideas require further actions they should be self sustained and have a minimum dependency 

on state or other official institutions. (On our homepage we will provide a fair amount of examples.) 

Key tags for the presented ideas are: self dynamics, refreshing, coherence, potential to grow, 

rhyzomatic, group process, living in Europe, Europe as a shared space, relevance to every 

European, getting away from cultural (national) stereotypes, from meta-ideas and solutions of 

global dimensions, from imposing (as opposed to suggesting and motivating) ideas on other people. 

Central to this workshop is the discussion in the group. The presenter then has the possibility to fine 

tune his argument that will lead to the final presentation where he can launch his “proto”-idea 

through video and/or social media. These videos can include appeals for action and – by mutual 

consent – can be published on video channels like You Tube, Vimeo, etc. There will training 

sessions for voice development and body expression to help and coach the participants with their 

presentation skills. Visits to institutions, places and cultural events will be synchronous with the 

aims of the workshop, i.e. public presentations and informal media. The work in the group will be 

moderated on the basis of mutual respect, help, creativity and empathy.

Interessenten aus den verschiedensten gesellschaftlichen Bereichen, vor allem Personen die in 

ländlichen Gebieten leben und für die dieser Grundtvig Workshop möglicherweise die einzige 

Möglichkeit darstellt an einem europäischen Workshop, ausserhalb des eigenen Landes, 

teilzunehmen. Vor allem mächten wir auch MigrantInnen aus ländlichen Gegenden und aus den 

osteuropäischen Ländern ansprechen. Da dieser Workshop auf alle Teilnehmer sensibilisierend 

bzw. auch selbststärkend im Bezug auf Diskriminierung wirken wird. Ein lebhafter Austausch 

zwischen Betroffenen und nicht Betroffenen von Diskriminierung, wird angestrebt. 

Interested persons from different social backgrounds, especially people who live in rural areas, for 

whom this Grundtvig workshop is the only possibility to participate in a European workshop 

outside their own country. We want to reach migrants who live in rural areas in East European 

countries because this workshop has the effect of sensibilisation and empowerment regarding 

discrimination. We want to reach a lively exchange of victims and people who are no victims of 

discrimination. 


Jeder einzelne Tag des Workshops steht unter einem speziellen Thema, es werden Inputvorträge 

gehalten, Filme gezeigt, die zu Diskussion und Reflektion aller Teilnehmer untereinander führen. 

Weiters wird ein Stadtspaziergang mit historischen Ausführungen in Wien organisiert, interaktive 

Rollenspiele werden initiiert und psychologisch begleitet. Während des gesamten Projekts wird es 

auch täglich Zeit geben für gemeinsame Entspannungsübungen, die mithelfen sollen das neu 

Erfahrene besser zu verarbeiten, in Rollenspielen spontaner zu agieren und die Gruppe als gesamte 

zu stärken. 

Der erste Vormittag beginnt mit einer Kennenlernrunde und Selbstreflexion über eigene 

Vorstellungen, diskriminierende Erlebnisse, Klischees über Schwarze Menschen in Europa und 

Reflexion über die Entstehung dieser. Anhand von Filmen wird die Darstellung Schwarzer 

Menschen in Unterrichtsmaterialien sowie in den Medien aufgezeigt und regt zu Diskussionen 

zwischen den Teilnehmern an. 

Am 2.Tag dient ein historischer Abriss zur Entstehung rassistischer Stereotype und Strukutren, 

besonders im deutsch-sprachigem Raum vom Mittelalter über Neuzeit und Aufklärung, 18./19.Jhdt, 

Sklavenhandel, Kolonialismus, ‚Völkerschauen’ als Input für die Fortsetzung der Diskussionen. 

Anschliessend wird ein geführter Stadtspaziergang in Wien, auf der Spurensuche zu AfrikanerInnen 

18

in Wien, sowie die verschiedenenen Darstellungen Schwarzer Menschen in unterschiedlichen 

Epochen, mit den Teilnehmern unternommen. 

Der 3.Tag widmet sich dem Thema‚ Konstruktion und Dekonstruktion von rassistischen 

Vorstellungen’ in Bezugnahme zur Vorkriegszeit und Zeit des Nationalsozialismus und seinen 

Folgen. Eine international anerkannte Diversitätsspezialistin (Präsidentin des Black European 

Women Councils) leitet die Diskussionen. Die Aufarbeitung von Rassismen nach dem II.Weltkrieg 

und deren Auswirkungen bis heute, werden anhand von anschaulichem Material, untereinander 

diskutiert. Es gibt auch einen kurzen Exkurs zu den Bewegungen weltweit gegen Rassismus und 

Unterdrückung im 18.,19., 20. Jahrhundert in den USA. 

4. Mit interaktiven Rollenspielen wollen wir sowohl die Sensibilisierung, als auch die Stärkung des 

Selbstbewusstseins und der Zivilcourage aller Teilnehmer anregen. Psychologische Hintergründe 

von Täter/ Opferrollen zum Thema Diskriminierung werden beleuchtet und diskutiert. 

5. Der vorletzte Tag widmet sich der Berichterstattung in den Medien über Afrika, die 

Wahrnehmungen der einzelnen Teilnehmer in ihren unterschiedlichen Ländern werden miteinander 

verglichen und analysiert. 

6. Der letzte Tag dient dem Blick in die Zukunft und Möglichkeiten werden aufgezeigt wie das neu 

erfahrene Wissen des Workshops konstruktiv im alltäglichen Leben implementiert werden kann, 

durch konkrete Beispiele. Abgerundet wird der Workshop an jedem einzelnen Tag mit 

Entspannungsübungen eines Shaolintrainers/ Meditationslehrers zum Thema Zvilcourage. Die, zu 

Beginn des Workshops angeregten Tagebuchnotizen jedes einzelnen während der Workshopzeit, 

werden zusammengefasst. Durch Feedback wollen wir Entwicklungsprozesse verfolgen und 

erkennen. Alle Teilnehmer werden eingeladen in monatlichen Abständen ihr Notizen 

weiterzuführen und mit uns per Mail auszutauschen, um wertvolles Feedback über die mögliche 

Implementierung jedes Einzelnen in seinem Umfeld zu bekommen und um in Kontakt zu bleiben. 

Every day of this workshop has a special topic, short lectures and videos lead to process of 

discussions and reflection of every participant. A guided tour in Vienna with a historian is 

organised, interactive role plays with psychological support are initiated. Throughout the whole 

project daily relaxing exercises will help to understand the absorbed information, to act more 

spontaneously in the role plays and to reinforce the whole group. 

1st day: The first morning starts with the introduction of all participants. After that there will be a 

phase of reflection of the participants ideas, experience of discrimination and their perception of 

Africa and Black People. Video documentations will show the representation of black people in 

educational materials and in the media and lead to discussion. 

2nd day: The creation of racist stereotypes and structures are put in the context of history. The focus 

will be especially on the history of the German territories from the Middle Ages to slavery, 

colonialism. This input will lead to a continuation of the reflexion and discussion process. After that 

a guided tour through Vienna with the title ‘African Vienna’, History of Africans here in Vienna” 

with a historian will take place. The aim of that guided tour is to perceive the different ways in 

which black people were presented in the different times. 

3rd day: The focus of that day is “How to construct (Focus on Nazional Socialism) and deconstruct 

stereotypes (Movements against racist oppression, Civil Rights Movements, Anti Apartheid). An 

international diversity specialist leads the discussion. How to overcome racism after the second 

world war and the effect till today will be reflected with the help of visual materials. A brief look at 

the movements against racism and oppression worldwide and in the 18th, 19th and 20th century in 

the USA will round up that theme. 

4th day: With interactive role plays we will raise sensibilisation, empowerment and the civil 

courage of the participants. 

5. The psychological backgrounds of victims and perpetrators of discrimination will be examined. 

5th day: The fifth day will be dedicated to European media-news reports on Africa. The perception 

of the different participants in their countries will be compared and analysed. 

6. 6th day: The focus of the last day will be how to further implement the knowledge acquired and 

the experience made during the workshop in everybody’s daily surrounding (we look for concrete 

examples like “go into shops and challenge, set up courses in schools, firms”…) The last activity 

19

every day will be some relaxing meditation exercises on the topic civil courage. In the beginning of 

the workshop all participants are invited to take small notes in form of a diary (in the end of the day 

every participant shall write about her/his feelings about new information she/he got during the 

workshop). On the last day we bring the information of these diaries together. Through this kind of 

feedback we want to make aware the process of development made during the workshop. All 

participants are invited to continue their diary and exchange it regularly of every month, in order to 

stay connected and get some feedback on eventual implementation in their daily surroundings.

In methodischer Vielfalt wird vermittelt, dass weniger Konsum/Wachstum nicht Verzicht, sondern 

Bereicherung – im Immateriellen – sein kann und dass das nicht nur eine Überlegung im Kopf ist, 

sondern auch eine des Bauchgefühls und der Herzensbildung. Den TeilnehmerInnen wird Wissen 

zum Themenkomplex Nachhaltigkeit vermittelt, das gemeinsam mit Motivation die Basis für 

mögliche Lebensstil-Änderungen bilden kann. Sie werden mit verschiedenen Methoden aktiv in den 

Lernprozess einbezogen und mit ihnen gemeinsam werden individuelle Ideen entwickelt, wie sie

Menschen, die sich in vielerlei Hinsicht um einen nachhaltigen Lebensstil bemühen, runden das 

Programm ab, und sollen unterstützen vom Wissen zum Handeln zu kommen. 

In methodical diversity we will show, that less consumption/growth isn’t a disclaimer, but is 

enrichment - in immaterial contexts. It is not only a brain decision, but as well a gut decision and 

nobleness of heart. Participant will be taught some knowledge in the field of sustainability, which 

together with motivation can build the bases of lifestyle changes. They will be involved actively 

into the learning process by different methods and will develop concepts together, how to become 

active to shape a more sustainable lifestyle for themselves respectively trigger changes of social 

relations by European active citizenship. The subjects of the workshop include: Evaluation of the 

sustainability of our consumption according to the method cleanEuro (www.cleaneuro.eu), 

21

alternatives to consumption, ecological footprint, mobility, personal happiness, visions of a good 

life. Many opportunities for reflection of the heard are given as well as personal meetings with 

people, who already live sustainable, support the shortcut from knowledge to action.

fields aim to show real life examples. We will visit a local farm and a settlement developed 

according to ecological standards. The second day trip will bring us to an ecological business that 

also initiates regional cultural and educational activities. People will get hands on experience in the 

garden and explore, collect and process local wild herbs as example of nutritious and healthy local 

food. The social parts of the program will include open and playful activities (as singing, story 

telling, open fire, games etc.), where participants can share experience of their life.

Between Nature & Culture 


Artistic education, also including Arts and Crafts and Music 


Working language(s): 

Target Group + Translation: EN 

Tout citoyen européen curieux d’envisager de manière créative son lien à l’environnement et à la 

société (anglais parlé : niveau A2 et +). 

Anyone who would like to have a creative approach of social & environmental debates (english 

level required A2 and +). 


L’atelier thématique, « Between Nature & Culture » propose aux participants d’utiliser l’expression 

artistique pour nourrir des réflexions liées à l’actualité et aux débats de société comme le 

développement durable, l’aménagement du territoire, le vivre-ensemble. Les participants auront 

pour objectif de réaliser une œuvre d’art qui parle d’eux et de leur relation à l’environnement 

(naturel et culturel). Les participants feront l’expérience d’une démarche créative (les moyens 

symboliques de l’art) pour s’engager dans une citoyenneté active. L’Asbl propose une formule 

inédite autour de la thématique Nature-Culture. Dans une première phase, grâce à un dispositif 

nomade, les participants seront plongés dans une phase d’observation de leur environnement, 

alternativement naturel puis urbain. Cette phase d’observation se déroulera avec la complicité 

d’intervenants scientifiques et artistiques. L’objectif pour les participants sera de récolter, dans un 

va et vient permanent entre eux-mêmes et l’extérieur, des sons, des images, des intuitions, des 

sensations qu’ils utiliseront par la suite pour réaliser leur objet artistique. Dans une deuxième phase, 

à partir des images récoltées (dessins-photos), des observations (carnets de bord, enregistrements), 

ils travailleront avec une équipe de professionnels (graphistes, direction artistique) pour réaliser une 

micro-édition qu’ils apprendront à sérigraphier (impression manuelle). Les participants repartiront 

avec leur objet artistique et un exemplaire sera exposé en partenariat avec Mons 2015 – Capitale 

européenne de la culture (vernissage le dernier jour de l’atelier). L’exposition pourra ensuite 

voyager dans des structures partenaires en Europe et être diffusée dans une galerie sur le web. 

Thematic workshop « between Nature & Culture » offers participants to explore and use artistic 

expression to change their look at actuality, and topics like sustainable development, town planning, 

community living. Participants will be involved in an artistic process to elaborate an artwork that 

will reflect their thoughts, what they are and their relationship with their environnement (natural 

and cultural). This workshop aim at making people expérience a creative process and the symbolic 

function of art to develop ative citizenship. Façons de Voir’s approah focuses on Nature-Culture 

relationship. In a first step , an itinerant structure ( observatory-workplace and photo lab) will allow 

26

the participants to rediscover and observe their environnement through strategic natural and urban 

places. They will be guided in the methodology by experts with scientific and artistic backgrounds. 

This methodology is an unique opportunity to move the way we look a tour daily life and our 

contemporary world. In this stage of the process, the participants will collect sounds, images, 

intuitions, feelings, through a permanent back and forth between themselves ans the outisde. This 

colletion will feed their oncoming artwork. In a second step, thanks to the images they will have 

collected (drawings, pictures) , their observations, feelings (diary, radiorecording) of the previous 

days, they will oraganise and design a micro-edition of their work (together with graphic designers) 

that they will print manually by themselves thanks to screensilk printing process. Participants will 

conserve their personal artwork and edit a second specimen that will be exhibited by our partner 

Mons 2015 – European Capital for Culture (that will organise an Art Preview the last day of the 

workshop with local audiences – professional and non professional). This exhibition might be sent 

to European partners that could be interested in disseminating the artworks and the pedagogical 

process. Pictures of a artworks will be exhibit in a webgallery.

Subject area: European citizenship and European dimension 

Cultural heritage 

New technologies, ICT 



De gemotiveerde volwassen burger, jong en oud die zich bewust wil engageren in Europees 

burgerschap in relatie tot verdraagzaamheid en solidariteit in Europa. De burger heeft affiniteit met 

het thema Grote Oorlog, interesse in digitale fotografie en beschikt over basiskennis van computers 

en internet. Prioritaire doelgroep zijn de inwoners van de West- Europese landen, in het bijzonder 

Duitsland, Frankrijk, het Verenigd Koninkrijk, Ierland, Wallonië(B), Oostenrijk en Nederland (the 

Western front’ in WOI). Met het oog op intergenerationeel leren is de helft van de deelnemers 

ouder en de helft jonger dan 50 jaar. 

Adults from all ages interested in European citizenship, digital photography and the history and 

(cultural) heritage of the Great War. This workshop is open to people from Western European 

countries historically involved in World War I, in particularly Germany, France, the UK, Ireland, 

Wallonia, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands and also other countries in Europe. In order to 

stimulate intergenerational learning, half of the participants should be over the age of 50 whereas 

the other half should be younger than 50. Besides age the selection will be based on the degree of 

motivation and affection for the themes of European citizenship, the Great War and international 

tolerance and solidarity. Qualifications are not requested, but basic knowledge of computer is 

required. 


In deze10-daagse workshop werken de deelnemers concreet aan bezieling en versterking van 

Europees burgerschap door de historische context, in het bijzonder WOI tot leven te brengen. De 

deelnemers werken in een joint-venture aan een expositie van expressieve 

oorlogsherinneringsbeelden. Daarvoor volgen zij zowel theorielessen en outdoorpraktijklessen in 

digitale fotografie op de erfgoedsites van Flanders Fields, als lezingen over Europees Burgerschap 

en WO I. Steeds worden de deelnemers in hun affectieve en cognitieve vermogens – inleven in en 

kennisvergroting van WOI en Europees burgerschap – en in hun creatieve vermogens – het maken, 

bewerken en exposeren van foto’s - uitgedaagd. In contrast met de tentoongestelde foto’s, 

verwoorden de workshopparticipanten boodschappen van solidariteit en tolerantie die het besef van 

lotsverbondenheid het belang van Europees burgerschap bij het grote publiek doen gronden. Meer 

informatie vindt u op onze website www.cervogoesinternational.be. 

During this 10 day workshop the participants work tangibly upon inspiration and reinforcement of 

European citizenship by bringing alive the historical context, especially World War I. Participants 

in a joint venture work on an exposition of expressive war remembrance photo shoots. With this 

28

purpose they follow theoretical lessons as well as practical outdoor lessons in taking digital pictures 

on cultural war sites of Flanders Fields. They also attend classes in European citizenship and World 

War I. By appealing to their affective and cognitive capabilities - immersing in and gaining 

knowledge of World War I and European citizenship – and by appealing to their creative skills - 

taking, editing and exposing digital pictures - participants continuously will be activated and 

challenged. Participants are also supposed to give their exposed photographs meaningful messages 

of solidarity and tolerance. They do this in order to make the general public realize the ground of 

solidarity and European citizenship. You can find more information on the website of the workshop 

organiser (www.cervogoesinternational.be).

May 3 to May 10 – City Museum Sint-Niklaas (Belgium) 

Participants will learn to use the techniques and technologies of sound recording and explore the 

possibilities of locative media (smart phones, tablets) in an alternative exploration of the 

contemporary European city. Our point of departure is the memories and the emotions of the 

inhabitants and visitors of the city, stimulating as well alternative ways of moving on through the

way to learn, focusing on themes as the presence and absence of nature in the city and the presence 

of and the memory about various cultures in the city. 

The workshop offers surprising, enriching and unexpected encounters with the city of Sint-Niklaas, 

its history and its inhabitants and incites to reflect upon European urban realities and the 

contemporary human condition in a broader sense. The workshop reflects explicitly about the 

presence and absence of nature in European cities and about human aspects of the city as a place of 

living together. The workshop connects with the International Art Biennial Coup de Ville in Sint- 

Niklaas. 

We aim to realize together with the participants ‘a listening book of the city’, a collective sound 

walk, conceived as an alternative and non-touristic gps-audio-guide for the visitors of Sint-Niklaas 

with narratives about the city, about nature in the city and about living together, with soundscapes 

and personal stories of the participants. 

Our aim is to have people communicate about their immediate surroundings in a non-verbal way by 

using sounds taken from those surroundings. 

We will study the experience of listening and all the complexities that have affected the 

development of sound in the history and focus on the practical configuration of a digital sonic 

cartography of the city, materialized in the composition of a GPS-sound walk. 

No previous knowledge of or experience with contemporary technology or locative media is 

needed. The workshop is accessible for everybody with an interest in the poetic and communicative 

potential of sound linked with memories, regardless educational background, knowledge, etc. The 

workshop is based on exchange of experiences out of the daily life of the participants, with 

experiential learning and collective creating as point of departure. 

Applying is especially encouraged to participants +50 years.

Boost your tourism initiatives through digital technologies 

Subject area: New technologies, ICT 

Media and communication 



Local hospitality structures owners (such as Bed & Breakfast and guest houses), associations of the 

former and organizations engaged in local territory and tourism promotion. Seniors and people 

coming from rural areas will be privileged. 


The workshop is structured around the development of a customized online communication strategy 

for each of the participants. For this reason, day 1 focuses on the Finding values and messages held 

as most relevant to be communicated for each of the represented hospitality structures or services, 

in the effort of identifying key content to convey. Before coming to the workshop, participants will 

be asked to collect good practices about hospitality and web communication that they experienced. 

They will be also asked to reflect on motivation and relevant prior experiences and felt needs. 

Finally they will have to bring some supporting material about their hospitality offers. 

Day 1: Hospitality: your values and messages This day is focused on the identification of the unique 

messages and values to be communicated through digital media. Rural tourism in fact is not 

definitely perceived in the generic tourism market: each structure or service should find its voice 

and image in order to effectively reach its potential clients. The focus is on WHAT will be 

communicated, and TO WHOM: each participant will create her/his own specific communication 

map. Emphasis will also be given to potential intercultural pitfalls in tourism communication, which 

are especially tricky in local tourism. 

Day 2: Digital communication on the web Day 2 provides an introduction to the wide palette of web 

communication channels and instruments. The focus is on the MEDIA, both on tools (how they 

work) and on applications (how they are actually used), namely through the analysis of case studies. 

That will help to develop a shared vision of what must or could be included in a hospitality 

offer/territory promotion web site, and on the basic procedures to create a simple set of instruments. 

During day 1 and 2 different moments will be dedicated to the collection and discussion of 

experiences and good practices brought by participants. 

Day 3: Atelier activities In this moment, participants will have a communication map, and an 

overview of basic digital instruments. Implementing that plan will probably take more effort, but it 

is important that participants are made aware that the basic entry point in digital promotion can be 

lowered through proper design and rapid development models. To this purpose, day 3 will propose 

an atelier activity, where participants will be engaged in developing small digital communication 

objects for the promotion of the local territory. The focus will not be on technical development 

39

tricks, but on lowering costs and barriers to the use of digital media for local tourism promotion in 

practice. 

Day 4: Web promotion Once digital communication instruments are ready, promotion sets in. Day 

4 is dedicated to presenting and understanding the basics of web promotion, how it works and how 

to take advantage of it. This will include a discussion about e-mailing, search engine optimization 

and promotion, and viral marketing. Also, these techniques will be analyzed with respect to the 

various moments in the yearly lifetime of a hospitality service/attraction. The focus is on the 

CHANNELS to promote the media and convey desired messages to the target audience. 

Day 5: Action! Day 5 will be devoted to the actualization of the proposed path for each of the 

participant's own hospitality structures and services. Each participant will (a) revise the 

communication map (b) select relevant media and develop a communication plan, and (c) develop a 

realistic implementation plan. The groups will provide “critical friend” reviews, with proper 

scaffolding from trainers. After the workshop, some follow-up activities will be organized, mainly 

to support and evaluate the activities put in practice by participants and in order to activate the 

network of the participants and stimulate communication. Expected outputs (especially in terms of 

the learning outcomes for the participants) In general, participants will acquire information and 

develop skills on how to promote their own hospitality offers and the territory (both culture and 

landscapes). In particular, at the end of the workshop the participants will be able to: - identify key 

messages and values to communicate to promote their own hospitality offer; - develop a 

communication map connecting values, messages and audiences; - design and develop basic media 

items for digital promotional activities; - recall case studies of good practices in web local tourism 

promotion; - identify proper instruments and tools for web promotion; - exchange cultural views 

and interpretations of what hospitality is; - devise an implementation plan. Also, the workshop 

aims at creating a professional network among the participants, including the trainers. For this 

purpose, a workshop website will be made available also after the workshop.

Frauen / Women 


Unterrichtseinheiten, Vorträge, Diskussionen und Austausch von Erfahrungen (oral-history 

Konzept). 

Durch eine Öffnung für Bildung sollen Suryoye-Assyrer-Frauen die Möglichkeit erhalten, Zugang 

zu Bildung zu finden. Dies soll sie dabei unterstützen, ihre an das Haus gebundene Rolle als 

Hausfrau und Mutter zu relativieren, um mehr Selbstbewusstsein und Stärke zu erlangen und ein 

europäisches Verständnis und eine gesunde Integration in die "europäische" Gesellschaft zu finden. 

Bei dem Workshop werden Suryoye-Assyrer-Frauen aus verschiedenen Ländern Europas 

zusammengeführt und ihnen wird die Chance gegeben, mit Frauen in derselben Lage zu 

kommunizieren und bedarfsgerecht gemeinsam zu lernen. Durch die Teilnahme von Frauen aus den 

einzelnen Ländern können unterschiedliche Kenntnisse und Erfahrungen eingebracht werden. Der 

Workshop wird ein umfangreiches Bildungsprogramm bereitstellen, das dazu beitragen soll, dass 

die Frauen aus der defizitären Situation herausgeführt werden. Denn nur durch ihre (Weiter-) 

Bildung kann ihre gesellschaftliche und kulturelle Lage verbessert werden. Sie lernen selbstsicherer 

und selbständiger zu werden. Die neuen Bildungschancen für die Frauen werden grundlegende und 

nachhaltige Auswirkungen auf ihre familiäre Situation haben. Die Frauen lernen im Workshop 

neben den Bildungsinhalten im engeren Sinn sich selbst zu organisieren: ihr Wissen an andere 

Suryoye-Assyrer-Frauen weiterzugeben, diese zu aktivieren, ihnen durch ihr Vorbild Mut zu 

machen und sie dazu zu bringen, sich an Bildungsangeboten aktiv zu beteiligen.

Break the silence 



Inclusive approaches 



Deaf and hearing people. 


The project “Break the silence” is an integrative workshop that will bring together both deaf and 

hearing adults. The main topic of the workshop will be culture in different points of view, through 

which we would like to show that deaf and hearing worlds are alike. Culture is a great tool how to 

integrate different groups of people and the workshop will be an innovative international learning 

experience. The mix between the 2 worlds: people who cannot hear and the ones who can will be an 

enrichment for all the participants and other people outside the group, breaking certain barriers and 

prejudices. During the workshop, we will use creative pedagogical tools like theatre, music, poetry 

and other cultural workshops in order to create a group dynamics, learn more about the cultures of 

deaf and hearing people and to empower participants. We will also concentrate together on 

intercultural learning. The non-verbal communication will be used as a working method and 

international sign language will be taught to all the participants.

DiG - Deaf in the Garden 






Hörgeschädigte und Gehörlose Erwachsene in Europa mit Interesse an der aktiven und kreativen 

Auseinandersetzung mit Natur und Kunst. 


DiG ist ein Bildungs- und Begegnungsprojekt, das sich explizit an die Zielgruppe der gehörlosen 

und hörgeschädigten Menschen in Europa richtet. Diese Bevölkerungsgruppe ist oft strukturell aus 

dem europäischen Programm Lebenslanges Lernen ausgegrenzt, weil z.B. keine Gebärdensprachdolmetschung 

vorgesehen ist. DiG will zeigen, dass Gärten und Parks für das partizipative und 

gemeinschaftliche Lernen von gehörlosen Menschen ein ideales Handlungsfeld sind. In Gärten kann 

eine aktive Einbindung der gehörlosen Teilnehmer in den interkulturellen Austausch ohne die 

Kenntnis anderer Gebärdensprachen, und oft auch ohne Dolmetscher, ermöglicht werden. DiG 

verbindet künstlerische und gärtnerische Aktivitäten und stellt die non-verbale Kommunikation in 

den Vordergrund. Die Aktivitäten Kräuterkunde und Gemüsekunde stellen Elemente der 

Gartennutzung dar. Pflege dekorativer Gärten (Blumenkunde) ist ein Element der Gartenästhetik. 

Trommeln, Malerei und Pantomime schaffen den Übergang zur künstlerischen Betätigung in Gärten 

und bedeuten eine erweiterte Form der Kommunikation der Gehörlosen mit hörenden Menschen 

untereinander. 

The workshop DiG is a European education project within the EU’s Lifelong Learning Program 

project designed specifically for the needs of the hearing impaired adult population of the continent. 

Hearing impaired Europeans are often structurally excluded from projects that typically depend on 

verbal communication as a tool for education, and translation always comes with a certain loss of 

information. Gardens, Parks and urban green spaces represent an ideal field of action for 

participative, collaborative and intercultural learning approach to be applied within this project. 

Productive and creative garden(ing) activities allow a proactive involvement of hearing impaired 

participants from different countries without the need to learn foreign sign languages or to be 

dependent on translation. The workshop DiG combines art and gardening using non-verbal 

communication. The activities concerning herbs and vegetables show how to use gardens in a 

practical way. Also experiencing the beauty of gardens by using the senses (touching, smelling, 

visualization) will open the access to the esthetics of cultivated green spaces. Percussion, 

Pantomime and painting will be the elements of DiG using a garden as a background to create art.

Impressionen: von Augenblicken und Blickwinkeln 

Subject area: Intercultural education 





Generationsübergreifender Workshop für Erwachsene über 18 Jahren, die Impressionen und 

Augenblicke unter verschiedenen Blickwickeln fotographisch festhalten möchten, die die kulturelle 

Vielfalt Bayerns entdecken und sich interkulturell austauschen möchten; die bestrebt sind, ihre 

Deutschkenntnisse zu verbessern. 


Den Augenblick festhalten, ein flüchtiger Moment des Glücks, der Schönheit, der Freude, den 

Lichteinfall auf einem Gesicht, auf einer Blume, auf einem Kunstwerk, auf einer Landschaft zu 

verewigen, das wünschen wir uns oft. Beim Fotografieren versuchen wir es auch. Und danach bei 

der Betrachtung der Bilder sehen wir diese immer wieder mit anderen Augen, von einem anderen 

Blickwinkel. Ist aber das, was uns bewegt auch das, was andere bewegt? Ist unser Verständnis für 

das Schöne und für die Kultur das Gleiche wie bei unseren europäischen Mitbürger/innen? Welchen 

Einfluss hat unsere Herkunft auf unsere Sichtweise, auf unsere Betrachtungsweise? Welche 

unterschwelligen kulturellen Elemente prägen unbewusst unsere Sichtweise und Impressionen? Wir 

gehen gemeinsam auf Jagd nach Augenblicken, die wir fotografisch versuchen festzuhalten, die wir 

aus verschiedenen Blickwickeln betrachten und die wir als Impressionen wiedergeben. 

1.Praktische Tipps rund um das Fotografieren 

2.Kleine Geschichte des bayerischen Alltags 

3.Augenblicke festhalten, ist es möglich? Augenblicke in unserer Erinnerung. 

4.Was sehe ich in diesem Bild? Über Sichtweise und Blickwinkel. 

5.Prägung der Menschen durch ihren eigenen Kulturkreis und ihr Einfluss auf unsere 

Wahrnehmung von kulturellen Gegebenheiten 

6.Gemeinsamkeiten des europäischen Erbes Die Aktivitäten rund um das Fotografieren, das eine 

Vielfalt von Vergleichen ermöglicht, gestalten sich auf vier Ebenen: das Entdecken, die Kreativität, 

der Blickwinkel und die Reflexion.

Sprachenlernen anders - Im Dialog mit Johann Sebastian Bach 

Subject area: Methods to increase students motivation 

Foreign language teaching and learning 

Recognition of non-formal and informal learning 



Erwachsene, die einst erlerntes, jedoch nicht mehr anwendungsbereites Wissen in der deutschen 

Sprache durch informelles und nonformales Sprachenlernen verbessern möchten und die sich für 

Kulturgeschichte (Musik/ Bach) interessieren. 


Der Workshop bietet die Möglichkeit, einst gelerntes, jedoch nicht mehr anwendungsbereites, 

Wissen in der deutschen Sprache zu aktivieren und zu erweitern. Hierzu werden verschiedene 

Methoden des informellen Lernens genutzt. Am Beispiel der Biografie und den Wirkungsstätten des 

weltberühmten Komponisten Johann Sebastian Bachs werden die Themen Familie, Kindheit, 

Jugend, Arbeit und Musik behandelt. Exkursionen zu verschiedenen Wirkungsstätten in der 

Umgebung des Workshops dienen dazu, die Themenfelder selbst zu erschließen und das Erlernte im 

Sprachgebrauch zu trainieren. Die Exkursionen werden durch die Teilnehmenden selbst organisiert, 

was ihre Sprachkompetenz in Bezug auf das Thema „Reisen“ festigt. Die Teilnehmenden erkunden 

das Geburtshaus Bachs in Eisenach, Städte, Dörfer und Kirchen Thüringens, in denen Mitglieder 

der Bach-Familie – der Bache – geboren, getauft und getraut wurden und nicht zuletzt die 

Thomaskirche in Leipzig, wo Bach als Thomaskantor tätig war. Sie lernen dabei anhand von täglich 

gestellten Arbeitsaufgaben, die deutsche Sprache zu verstehen und in ihr zu kommunizieren. Der 

Lernfortschritt wird täglich in dokumentiert (z.B. in Mindmaps, Interviews. Präsentationen). 

Natürlich wird auch die Musik nicht zu kurz kommen: Wir lernen Instrumente kennen und 

besuchen ein Abendkonzert. Wir nehmen am Hausmusikabend einer Familie teil und frönen so 

einer Tradition, die in Erfurt wieder öffentlich praktiziert wird. Wir werden über die Verbindung 

von Bach und Luther den Bogen schlagen zu Lutherdekade.

Kunst als Sprache entdecken - Ich nehme wahr und ich teile mich mit. 






Der Workshop richtete sich an Menschen in Europa, die ein Interesse daran haben, mehr über das 

Medium Kunst zu erfahren und selbst künstlerisch aktiv zu werden. Besondere Vorkenntnisse sind 

hierbei nicht erforderlich. Bewerbungen von Menschen mit Behinderung werden bevorzugt 

behandelt. 


Im Rahmen des Workshops treffen Menschen aus unterschiedlichen europäischen Ländern 

zusammen, um gemeinsam künstlerische Werke zu betrachten und gleichzeitig selbst künstlerisch 

aktiv zu werden. Kunst wird hierbei als ein Kommunikationsmedium gesehen. Mit Hilfe der Kunst 

werden wir uns in einer Art und Weise austauschen, die uns im alltäglichen Leben nicht zugänglich 

ist. Die künstlerische Arbeit ermöglicht es uns darüber bewusster zu werden, wer wir selbst sind 

und versetzt uns gleichzeitig in die Lage, dieses auszudrücken. Indem wir uns selbst ausdrücken 

erlauben wir es wiederum anderen, uns wahrzunehmen und diese Wahrnehmung für den eigenen 

künstlerischen Prozess nutzbar zu machen. Durch dieses gegenseitige Geben und Nehmen entsteht 

ein künstlerischer Raum, in dem wir ein tiefes Verständnis füreinander und für uns selbst 

entwickeln können. Der Workshop besteht aus einem Wechsel von Führungen durch die Berliner 

Kunst- und Kulturlandschaft einerseits und Kursen der Malerei und Fotografie andererseits. Am 

letzten Tag des Workshops werden wir gemeinsam eine Ausstellung organisieren. Jeder, der sich 

angesprochen fühlt, kann an dem Workshop teilnehmen. Vorkenntnisse in der Malerei oder im 

Fotografieren sind hierfür nicht notwendig, da jeder Mensch das Potential zur künstlerischen 

Selbstdarstellung von Natur aus in sich trägt.

Green Learning: Energie sparen – Klima schützen 

Subject area: Environment / sustainable development 



Menschen die an Nachhaltigkeit, Klimaschutz und praktischer Energieeinsparung interessiert sind 

und die Freude haben, in einer multinationalen, alters- und geschlechtergemischten Gruppe mitund 

voneinander zu lernen. Menschen, die über ein geringeres Einkommen verfügen und sich 

Kompetenzen aneignen möchten, die ihnen helfen, Energiekosten zu sparen. 

Adult learners, who are interested in sustainable development, climate protection and energy 

savings and who like to work and learn within an international group of mixed age and gender. 


Die Teilnehmer/innen erarbeiten sich den Themenkomplex Klimaschutz, Energieeinsparung und 

Kostensenkung. Wir bieten einen experimentellen Erfahrungs- und Ideenraum für nachhaltiges 

Leben und Wirtschaften. Während der Woche werden wir unterschiedliche und sehr praktische 

Möglichkeiten und Technologien kennenlernen, die uns helfen, Energie zu sparen und Kosten zu 

senken. Wir untersuchen zum Beispiel verschiedene Energieverbräuche im Bildungszentrum und 

vergleichen diese mit Verbräuchen von Häusern in der Nachbarschaft. Die unterschiedlichen 

Resultate und Lösungsvorschläge werden diskutiert und visualisiert. Inspirierende Experten, eine 

Vielzahl zukunftsweisender Beispiele zur Energiekostensenkung und die Erfahrungen der 

Teilnehmenden regen die Arbeit in der Gruppe an. Der Workshop findet in einem Plus-Energiehaus 

statt, in dem auf anschauliche Weise anwendungsorientiertes Wissen über Möglichkeiten der 

Energie- und Kostensenkung auch in Mietwohnungen angeeignet werden kann und das auf das 

tägliche Leben der Teilnehmenden übertragbar ist. Zusätzlich werden wir ein Entwicklungszentrum 

für erneuerbare Energien und Offshore-Windkraftanlagen besuchen. Theoretisches und praktisches 

Lernen ergänzen sich während des Workshops. Zudem verbleibt ausreichend Zeit, um während der 

Woche individuelle Erfahrungen und Kenntnisse zu Klimaschutz und Energieeinsparung 

auszutauschen. 

The participants will consider the context of climate protection, energy savings and cost-saving 

opportunities. We offer a meeting place for exchange of experiences, ideas and methods of learning 

and acting for a sustainable development. We will acquire knowledge about different practical 

technologies for saving energy. The participants explore for example the size of the annual use of 

energy within the building we live and work in as well as in houses of the neighbourhood. The 

results and solutions will be discussed and visualised. We will become inspired and motivated by 

impressing examples, fascinating experts and trough the members of the group. The workshop will 

take place in a plus-potential energy-building. We are looking for descriptive and clear examples 

for applied knowledge, that could transferred to every-day use. Additionally we will come to see a 

development center for regenerative energy production and offshore technology. Theoretical and 

56

practical learning will come together throughout the course. There will be sufficient space during 

the week for the exchange of individual experience and knowledge about climate protection and 

energy savings. After completing the workshop, the participants will: - gain knowledge on 

sustainable development and energy savings - be inspired by real examples of climate protection 

and sustainable lifestyle practices - be able to transfer their experience and practical solutions to 

every-day use

“Mein Schatten – Mein Licht”, ein integrativer Coaching-Workshop 

für europäische Frauen mit und ohne Behinderung 


Methods to increase students motivation 



Frauen mit und ohne Behinderung ab 25 Jahren 


In diesem Workshop werden wir uns mit der Rolle von behinderten, europäischen Frauen in der 

Gesellschaft auseinandersetzen. Am Beispiel von berühmten europäischen Frauen, deren 

Behinderungen im öffentlichen Leben nicht wahrgenommen wurden, werden wir erarbeiten, 

inwiefern sich das Bild der Frau in Europa im allgemeinen und das der behinderten Frau im 

besonderen, im Laufe der Zeit geändert hat. An Hand von Bildern und Filmaufnahmen werden wir 

differenzieren, wie diese Frauen von der Gesellschaft wahrgenommen wurden und wie sie sich 

selbst wahrgenommen haben. Wir werden das Geburtshaus einer berühmten Frau mit Behinderung 

besuchen und ihre Lebensgeschichte erfahren.

Kreative Wege aus der europäischen Identitätskrise – jeder Europäer 

behält seine Identität und ist trotzdem Teil eines 

zusammenwachsenden Europas 






Europäische BürgerInnen verschiedener Altersgruppen, mit oder ohne Behinderungen, die sich auf 

kreative Weise mit ihrer europäischen Identität sowie mit Europas Zukunft beschäftigen möchten 

und die Interesse an einer gemeinsamen, intensiven und internationalen Lernerfahrung haben. 

European citizens of both genders and all ages, with or without disabilities - who want to find out 

more about their European Identity and about Europe’s future in a creative way - who are interested 

in an innovative and common multinational learning experience 


Der Workshop bietet den Teilnehmern unterschiedlicher kultureller und religiöser Herkunft die 

inklusive und multinationale Lernerfahrung, ihre eigene europäische Identität zu entdecken, sich 

mit der europäischen Identitätskrise auf kreative Weise auseinander zu setzen und sich Gedanken 

über Europas Zukunft zu machen. Wir unternehmen mit den Teilnehmern zunächst eine Zeitreise 

zurück in das Jahr 1685, um mehr über europäische Geschichte zu erfahren. Durch gemeinsames 

Kochen und Backen in der Gegenwart lernen wir, auch ohne große Worte miteinander zu 

kommunizieren. In der abschließenden Zukunftswerkstatt beschäftigen wir uns auf künstlerische 

und kreative Weise (Collage, Patchworkarbeit) mit unserer eigenen Identität und der Zukunft 

Europas. Wir planen nur mit 12 Teilnehmern, um eine persönliche und entspannte Atmosphäre 

während des Workshops zu gewährleisten. Grundkenntnisse in Englisch oder Deutsch wären gut, 

aber wir als Workshopveranstalter sprechen auch mehrere Sprachen. 

The workshop will offer to the participants with different religious and cultural backgrounds an 

innovative and multinational learning experience to find out more about their European Identity and 

about Europe’s future in a creative way. We will travel with the participants back in the year 1685 

for a better understanding of European history. Back to the present, we learn with the help of 

common baking and cooking to communicate informally. The future session gives us the 

opportunity to express our future visions and shared European identity in a creative way (collage, 

patchwork). We only have 12 participants to guarantee a personal and relaxed atmosphere during 

the workshop. Basic skills in German or English would be of advantage but we also speak various 

languages.

Kraftquellen - Schatzsuche in Frauenbiographien 



Health education 



Women in the age above 60 and young women in the age between 25 and 40. They should like to 

enter a mutual process by looking on their biographical experiences which they have made across 

generations. 

Women in an intercultural exchange to acknowledge the different biographical as enriching and to 

use them. 

Women looking for means to shape their lives in a healthy, committed, and responsible way. 

Frauen im Alter von 25 bis 40 und zum Anderen an Frauen über 60 Jahren, die in einen 

gegenseitigen generationsübergreifenden biographischen Austausch treten möchten. 

Frauen interessiert sind im interkulturellen Austausch die unterschiedlichen biographischen 

Erfahrungen als Bereicherung zu erkennen und zu nutzen. 

Frauen die Wege suchen, gesund, engagiert und selbstverantwortlich ihr Leben zu gestalten. 


In this workshop we will bring again to our awareness the competences, potentials, and coping 

strategies gained in our lives so far in order to use them in a healthy, self-conscious and selfresponsible 

way to structure our lives. The intercultural exchanges which goes over different 

generations leads to mutual strengthening and enlargement of conceptions of life. Women can be 

models for each other and exchange strategies of life and coping with difficulties in life. Sources of 

strength and health are to be looked for and exchanged and made usable for the future. This will 

lead to the recognition that women will be able to manage their numerous roles and tasks in society 

in a more self-confident and self-responsible way. For this endeavour we will take inspiration from 

the theory of salutogenesis which poses the question what keeps us healthy in contrast to the factors 

which make us ill. Thus in this exchange we will stress the “treasures”, resources and potentials 

which we easily forget in times of crises. We will approach this topic in turning in the first place to 

historical biographies of women in Weimar which can serve as models. After having looked at the 

salutogenic aspects of historical biographies of women, we will turn to our own life histories. 

Employing creative methods as e.g. painting, theatre without words, working with inner images and 

so forth we will try to overcome language barriers in a rather personal exchange and to find out the 

personal abilities and potentials which at times are more recognizable in images and stories. By this 

procedure their relevance for a future vision of life-concepts will emerge. 

61

Wir werden uns in diesem Workshop die bisher im Leben erworbenen Kompetenzen, Potentiale 

und Bewältigungsstrategien wieder bewusst machen, um diese für eine gesunde, 

selbstverantwortliche und selbstbewußte Lebensgestaltung zu nutzen. Die Lebenswege von Frauen 

sind in den verschiedenen europäischen Ländern sehr unterschiedlich. Der interkulturelle Austausch 

ebenso wie der generationsübergreifende führt zu einer gegenseitigen Stärkung und Erweiterung 

von Lebenskonzepten. Frauen können füreinander Vorbilder sein und in der generationsübergreifenden 

Erfahrung Lebens- und Bewältigungsstrategien austauschen und erweitern. Kraftund 

Heilquellen werden aufgespürt, ausgetauscht und für die Zukunft nutzbar gemacht. Dies wird 

dazu führen, dass Frauen ihre vielfältigen Rollen und Aufgaben in der Gesellschaft gesünder, 

selbstbewußter und selbstverantwortlicher gestalten können. Für diese Arbeit lassen wir uns 

anregen von der Theorie der Salutogenese, die die Frage nach dem stellt, was uns gesund erhält, im 

Unterschied zu der Frage nach den krank machenden Faktoren. So werden wir in diesem Austausch 

"die Schätze", Ressourcen und Potentiale betonen, die wir auf dem Weg unserer bisherigen 

Lebensbewältigung gesammelt haben. Nachdem wir uns mit den salutogenen Aspekten der 

historischen Frauenbiographien aus Weimar beschäftigt haben, wenden wir uns unseren eigenen 

Lebensgeschichten zu. Mit kreativen Methoden werden wir versuchen, Sprachbarrieren in dem 

doch eher persönlichen Austausch zu überwinden und die manchmal mehr in Bildern oder 

Geschichten erkennbaren persönlichen Fähigkeiten und Potentiale zu erarbeiten. Dabei wird ihre 

Relevanz für eine Zukunftsvision sichtbar werden.

"...when borders turn into bridges" - A Graffiti Workshop on Borders 






European citizens with interest in a multinational week on graffiti and the topic “internal and 

external border”. 

Interessierte europäische Öffentlichkeit Bürger mit Lust auf Graffiti-Kunst und Interesse am Thema 

innerer und äußerer Grenzen. 


The workshop invites you to explore the topic “borders” – internal and external ones, political and 

cultural ones, historical and individual ones. Borders don´t only meander through Europe but also 

through regions, cities; they separate young from old, rich from poor, they separate fan 

communities. Borders can appear as massive walls. We will dare to tackle those walls – and paint 

them! By the help of graffiti and other street art techniques we will turn bare walls into paintings. 

That´s how borders can turn into bridges, voiceless borderlands become places of communication. 

Graffiti professionals will accompany us while developing our own concept for a masterpiece and 

while realizing it. You don´t have to be an expert in spraying at all; experienced participants are 

welcome, though – everybody is welcome. We also want to go on a Berlin excursion to see the 

famous Berlin Wall. We will walk along this former border that really became a wall. We´ll get to 

know various places of the graffiti scenes in Berlin and Dresden. Finishing our masterpiece in 

Dresden, there will be a vernissage party to which we will invite publicly. 

Der Workshop lädt ein, das Thema „Grenzen“ zu erkunden – innere und äußere, politische und 

kulturelle, historische und zwischenmenschliche. Grenzen durchziehen nicht nur Europa, sie 

durchziehen auch Länder, Regionen, Städte, Familien; sie trennen zwischen Altersgruppen, 

Bildungsschichten, Fangemeinden. Grenzen können sich aufrichten wie hohe Mauern. Wir wollen 

uns an diese Mauern wagen - und sie anmalen! Wir werden mit Graffiti und Streetart-Techniken 

kahle Mauern in Bildern verwandeln. So werden Grenzen zu Brücken; stumme Grenzen werden zu 

Orten der Begegnung! Graffiti-Profis werden uns begleiten, wenn wir ein Konzept für die 

Wandgemälde entwickeln und umsetzen. Vorkenntnisse sind nicht erforderlich; wir freuen uns aber 

auch über Erfahrene – alle sind willkommen. Wir werden für einen Tag nach Berlin fahren und die 

Berliner Mauer besuchen, an ihr entlang wandern und so eine ehemalige Grenze erleben, die 

wortwörtlich zur Mauer wurde. Wir werden Orte der Graffiti-Szene in Berlin und Dresden 

kennenlernen. Zum Abschluss unserer künstlerischen Arbeiten in Dresden wird es eine Vernissage 

geben, zu der offen eingeladen wird.

Health at every size 






People who want to deal with the topic Health in relation to bodyweight. 

Menschen, die sich mit dem Thema Gesundheit in Zusammenhang mit Körpergewicht 

auseinandersetzen wollen 


With our workshop "Health at every size" (HAES) we want to focus on an aspect of critical health 

care, the assumption that a healthy life often demands a change in weight. In the concept of "Health 

at Every Size" body weight plays no role, instead, it is looked at the whole person and the social 

environment. The assumption of HAES is, that a life of love and acceptance creates a good 

condition in order to live a healthy life. Including the experience that weight changes, especially 

weight loss, very rarely leads to a longlasting success. The goal, an establishment of HAES in 

Europe, will be too big for such a workshop, but we want to go a step into that direction, knowing, 

that we face lots of other very tight ideas in health politics concerning the ideas of weight loss, 

including the economic interest of the whole diet industry. We want to deal with both within the 

workshop, we want to discuss the social-political context, as well as new ideas with our own 

possibilities of a healthy life. 

Mit unserem Workshop „Health at every size“ (HAES) wollen wir uns dem Gesundheitsaspekt des 

Körpergewichts und der damit verbundenen Gesundheitsvorsorge kritisch widmen. Bisher wird in 

der Medizin viel der Gedanke, „Gesundheit durch Gewichtsreduktion“ vermittelt. Bei „Health at 

every size“ spielt das Körpergewicht keine Rolle, stattdessen wird auf den ganzen Menschen und 

sein gesellschaftliches Umfeld geschaut. Dahinter steckt die Annahme, dass ein Leben in Liebe und 

Akzeptanz zu sich selbst, aber auch durch andere Menschen, eine gute Voraussetzung schafft, um 

gesund leben zu können. Diese Annahme ist verbunden, mit der Erfahrung, dass 

Gewichtsveränderungen sehr selten zum Erfolg führen, stattdessen Gesundheitsrisiken und 

verminderte Lebensqualität mit sich bringen. HAES in Europa zu etablieren oder zumindest die 

Vorstellung, dass dies eine Option sein könnte, heißt dicke Bretter in der Gesundheitspolitik zu 

bohren. Sehr fest ist die Vorstellung, ein gesundes Leben ist nur mit Gewichtsabnahme zu 

erreichen, in Gesundheitspolitik und Medien verankert, vom wirtschaftlichen Interesse der 

Diätindustrie ganz zu schweigen. Wir wollen uns im Workshop sowohl mit den gesellschaftlichen 

Rahmenbedingungen auseinandersetzen und diese diskutieren, genauso wie mit den eigenen 

Vorstellungen und Möglichkeiten eines gesunden Lebens.

The Visionary Europe – Visually impaired rethink the world they live 

to design an accessible and comfortable environment 






Visually impaired people from all over Europe (in particular with Retinitis Pigmentosa and Usher- 

Syndrome) who are interested in intercultural exchange and who enjoy creative and experiencebased 

learning. 


Visually impaired people from all over Europe come together to exchange positive and negative 

aspects of their own lives and places concerning mobility and create a visualy impaired friendly 

model of Europe in order to use it as an inspiration for changes in the real world. The realisation 

will be based on the so-called future workshop method and encompasses three phases. The first 

phase serves to establish a critical understanding of the theme and the problems in question. Hence, 

the participants will be asked to explore Berlin and document (writing, photo, clips) all what they 

discover as problematic in connection to their impairment and compare it to the situation in the 

places they come from. The results will be categorized on a visual map showing Europe as it is now 

for visually impaired people. In a second phase the participants work out a utopia, an exaggerated 

picture of future possibilities. In this so-called Fantasy phase the participants use brainstorming 

techniques and creative games to find and to reflect utopian solutions. They will imagine and create 

(draw, making a collage etc.) an “visionary” model of Europe where all the mobility-related 

problems they experience in the real world are solved. In the last phase, the participants will 

withdraw from these imaginary world ideas that have a realistic and possible application and will 

work out practical next steps in order to realize them. Also they will be informed about self-help 

structures of visually impaired people and possibilities for participation on a national and European 

level. The workshop will be accompanied by activities for intercultural learning and empowerment. 

The organizers strive to achieve an environment of inclusion by its accessibility, non-discriminatory 

and respectful atmosphere and professional educational guidance, staffing and resources.

Imagine: Math could be fun 

Subject area: Mathematics 





Menschen der Altersgruppe 50Plus, die Mathe mögen 

People in the age of 50 Plus who like math 


Der Workshop richtet sich an Erwachsene, die früher in der Schule gern Mathe machten und noch 

heute Spaß am Rechnen oder Knobeln haben. Die Alterseingrenzung auf die Zielgruppe 50Plus soll 

einen Rahmen bieten, in dem sich ältere Menschen nicht dem Konkurrenzdruck der „Jungen“ 

ausgesetzt fühlen. Der Workshop zeigt auf anschauliche Weise, dass Mathe überall ist, Spaß macht 

und aufregend sein kann. Auf Exkursionen erleben wir Geometrie in Natur und Architektur. Wir 

zeichnen die Formen nach. Wir lernen, Statistiken auszuwerten und kommen den Tricks der 

Darstellungen auf die Schliche. Wir beschäftigen uns mit optischen Täuschungen. Wir „spielen“ 

mit der Mathematik und lösen Fermi-Aufgaben. Der Workshop findet in Erfurt statt – der Stadt, in 

der Rechenmeister Adam Ries das „Rechnen auf den Linien“ entdeckte. Sie werden Erfurt als eine 

der schönsten Städte Deutschlands mit mathematischen Augen erleben. Das Ausgangsniveau der 

Teilnehmenden kann und soll unterschiedlich sein, damit kooperatives Lernen gefördert wird. Die 

Lust an der PC-Anwendung soll gefördert werden. Dafür steht jedem Teilnehmenden ein PC zur 

Verfügung. Der Einsatz eines Aktivboards erleichtert auch Ungeübten den Zugang zu den neuen 

Medien. Das Arbeiten am PC ist NICHT Pflicht. Auch althergebrachte Hilfsmittel wie Zirkel und 

Schablone können zum Einsatz kommen. 

The workshop targets at people who liked math in school lesson and are interested in counting and 

riddling till today. It offers the chance to re-activate and increase hidden math skills – knowledge 

which had been acquired once but which isn’t available well enough yet. Targeting people of an age 

of 50 Plus avoids that elder people could feel pressure of competition regarding “Youngsters”. The 

workshop shows attractively that math is everywhere, funny and exiting. We experience via 

excursions that geometry accompanies us in nature and architecture. Transferring nature shapes to 

abstract figures we reactivate formulas that we had learned in school We learn to evaluate statistics 

and to discover tricks of presentations. We deal with optic deceptions. We “play” with math and 

solve Fermi tasks. We deal with a lot of media using all our senses. By visiting a company we deal 

with optimization. The workshop is located in Erfurt – the city where the “Counting master Adam 

Ries” discovered the Counting on lines.

Licht & Schatten Bildende Kunst und Performance 






Erwachsene mit geistiger und körperlicher Behinderung sowie Menschen ohne Behinderung 

(inklusives Setting). 


Der Workshop Name Licht & Schatten soll dazu anregen, über die Licht und Schattenseiten im 

Leben zu reflektieren und die eigene Persönlichkeit ins „rechte Licht“ zu rücken. Hauptziel des 

Workshops ist es, Menschen mit und ohne Behinderung aus verschiedenen europäischen Ländern 

zusammenzubringen und den internationalen Austausch zu fördern. Der Workshop setzt sich 

intensiv mit neuen Lernwegen auseinander, wobei in einem integrativen/inklusiven Setting kreativ, 

künstlerisch und darstellerisch gearbeitet wird. Die Lernziele werden aus Gefühlen, Stimmungen 

und eigenen Erfahrungen generiert. Durch gezielte Unterstützung von professionellen Referenten 

und Therapeuten soll Menschen mit Behinderung die bessere Teilhabe am Gemeinwesen 

ermöglicht werden. Während des Workshops können die Teilnehmenden (TN) anhand von 

kreativen Arbeitsweisen (z. B. Brigitte Guggenbiller (Kunsttherapeutin); Vanessa Werneke 

(Tanzpädagogin); Barbara Hartmann (Theaterpädagogin)) ihre Fähigkeiten und Ausdrucksformen 

im künstlerischen und darstellerischen Bereich erfahren. Der Workshop ist in drei Hauptmodule 

gegliedert. Jedes Modul setzt sich intensiv mit verschiedenen Inhalten wie „Ausdruck von 

Erlebnissen und Gefühlen“ mit Hilfe von Techniken wie z.B. Malerei, Bildhauerei, Tanz und 

Pantomime auseinander: 

(1) „Kennenlernen“ (Spiele zum Kennenlernen z. B. Speeddating, kleine gegenseitige Interviews, 

Austausch von Informationen über Lieblingsfarben, Lieblingstätigkeiten oder Lieblingsessen), 

(2) „Bildende Kunst“ (spielerisches Gestalten eines großen Gemeinschaftsbildes auf Nessel mit 

Gouachefarben, Malen mit Dripping Technik, Gestalten eines Zaubersteines aus Ytong, Malen 

eines Teppichs aus der Märchenwelt, etc.), 

(3) „Performances“ (Ausdruck von Gefühlen durch Körpersprache z. B. Pantomime, Darstellen von 

Geschichten durch Lichtspiele, Simulation des Spielens von Instrumenten z. B. der „Luftgitarre“). 

Der Workshop wird vervollständigt durch Exkursionen und gemeinsame Abendgestaltung wie z. B. 

einen Besuch mit Nachtführung im Stuttgarter Zoo, um die Aktivitäten von Nachttieren zu 

beobachten oder eine nächtliche Stadtführung. 

The Workshop „Light & Shadows“ will inspire to reflect on the lighter and shadier sides of life and 

to put the own personality in the “right light/perspective”. The overall objective is to bring together 

people with and without disabilities from different European countries and to foster European 

exchange. The workshop takes intensive stock of new learning methods, working in an 

72

integrative/inclusive setting in a creative, artistic and performing way. The learning outcomes will 

be generated by feelings, spirits and own experiences. During the Workshop the participants work 

together with experienced trainers (Brigitte Guggenbiller (arts); Vanessa Werneke (dance); Barbara 

Hartmann (theater)) on different fields of creative and artistic expression to increase the 

inclusion/integration of persons with disabilities in society. The Workshop is structured in three 

main modules. Each module deals intensively with different topics as “Expression of Experiences 

and Feelings”, „Express Your Motions“ or „Put Yourself in Perspective“ supported by techniques 

as e.g. painting, sculpturing, dance, pantomime. The three main modules are: 

(1) „Teambuilding“ (e.g. “speed dating”, short interviews, exchange about favourite colour, food, 

etc.) 

(2) „Graphic and Visual Arts“ (hands-on design of a large community-painting on nettle cloth using 

Gouache colours, design of a “magic stone” out of Ytong stone) 

(3) „Dance & Performance“ (e.g. expression of feelings by body language e.g. pantomime, 

performance of stories by shadow theatre). The workshop is completed by a study-visit and cultural 

programme in the evenings for example a visit to the zoo during the nightfall and darkness to watch 

special animals and their activities at night.

Wheels in Motion - wheelchairs and positive emotions! 

Subject area: Physical education and sport 





EU-BürgerInnen im Rollstuhl / EU citizens who are wheelchair users 


Austausch, Diskussion und eigene Erfahrungen mit dem Rollstuhl als Sportgerät stehen im 

Vordergrund des Workshops. Die Lernenden erhalten verschiedene praktische Bewegungs- und 

Denkanstöße. Die Ziele sind: neue Bewegungsformen als Rollstuhlfahrer_innen zu entdecken 

(Rollstuhlbasketball, Bogenschießen, Cheerleading, Tanzen) Freude an Bewegung im Rollstuhl in 

einer interkulturellen Gruppe zu erleben Positive Einstellung zum Rollstuhl als Bewegungsmittel 

und als Sportgerät zu festigen und weiter auszubauen Die Teilnehmer_innen setzen ihre Erlebnisse 

untereinander in einen europäischen Zusammenhang. Sie tauschen sich über ihre persönlichen 

Erfahrungen im Rollstuhlsport aus, entdecken kulturell bedingte Unterschiede und stellen 

Gemeinsamkeiten fest. Sie stärken sich untereinander in der positiven Wahrnehmung der eigenen 

Behinderung und motivieren sich gegenseitig Neues auszuprobieren. Kennenlern- und 

Auflockerungspiele zwischendurch dienen zur Interaktion der Teilnehmer_innen untereinander. Das 

Zusammenkommen mit deutschen Rollstuhlfahrer_innen, die Basketball spielen, eröffnen den 

Teilnehmern die Möglichkeiten, als Rollstuhlfahrer nachhaltig Sport zu betreiben. Für die 

Teilnahme sind keine tiefen sportpraktischen Erfahrungen notwendig, es wird allerdings eine eigene 

Mobilität im Rollstuhl vorausgesetzt. Die Arbeitssprache ist Englisch. 

Exchange, discussion and personal experience with the wheelchair as a sports equipment is the 

basic objective of the workshop. The participants will receive a range of practical exercise and food 

for thought. The objectives are: discover new forms of exercise as wheelchair driver (wheelchair 

basketball, archery, cheerleading, dancing) to experience joy in a wheelchair in an intercultural 

group expand and consolidate a positive attitude to the wheelchair as a sports equipment The 

participants put their experiences with each other in a European context. They will exchange 

information about their personal experiences in wheelchair sports, discover cultural differences and 

identify similarities. They reinforce each other in the positive perception of their disability and 

motivate each other to try new experiences. Introductory and loosening games are in between for 

the participants' interaction with each other. The meeting with a German wheelchair basketball team 

will open to the participants the opportunities to sustainably operate as wheelchair sports. For 

participation no deep practical sport experience is necessary, however it is provided its own 

mobility in a wheelchair. The working language is English.

Kompetenz erfahren 






All people above 18 interested in photography, art and Interculturalism. 

Für alle Menschen über 18 Jahre, die sich für Fotografie, Kunst, und Interkulturalität interessieren. 


In the workshop "IMAGE-CULTURE - CULTURAL IMAGES" the digital photography is 

combined with the learning of intercultural competence. The basics of digital photography are 

explained and practically tested in the studio of the academy and during small tours in the 

surroundings of Rastatt. Lots of tips will be given in landscape photography, architecture 

photography, studio photography and digital imaging. 

Im Workshop "BILDKULTUR - KULTURBILDER" werden die digitale Fotografie und das

attraktiven Rahmen und viele phantastische Möglichkeiten für Fotografie und Kultur. Im Workshop 

geht es nicht nur darum wie man spannende Bilder machen kann, sondern auch um die Wirkung 

von Bildern. Mehr denn je bestimmen Bilder heutzutage unseren Alltag. Schon spricht man von der 

"Bildkultur". Bilder beeinflussen das menschliche Erleben und Verhalten. Wir denken sogar in 

Bildern und haben bildhafte Erinnerungen.

Europa schalom! - Jüdische Kultur erleben 



Teaching basic skills for adult learners 



Jüdische Migranten in Europa. ZWST (Zentralwohlfahrstelle der Juden in Deutschland) hat eine 

langjährige Erfahrung in der Integrationsarbeit mit jüdischen Einwanderern. Bildungsangebote mit 

lebensnahem Inhalt, die die persönliche Weiterentwicklung der Teilnehmer ermöglichen, spielen 

dabei eine zentrale Rolle. Dieser Workshop möchte vor allem Menschen ansprechen, die durch 

ihren Migrationshintergrund in ihrer neuen Heimat von sozialer Isolation bedroht sind. Durch ihre 

persönlichen Lebensumstände fehlt es ihnen an Selbstsicherheit, die jüdische Kultur als Teil der 

Europäischen kulturellen Vielfalt zu leben. Die Workshop-Aktivitäten, die aus dem Alltäglichen 

schöpfen (wie Kochen) und die die Teilnehmer kennen (wie Feste und Bräuche), werden im 

europäischen Zusammenhang aufgezeigt und helfen den Teilnehmern ihr Selbstbild zu stärken. Alle 

Teilnehmer können sich dabei selber und ihre eigenen Lebenserfahrungen in der Gruppe vorstellen. 

Ihre Integrationsfähigkeit wird geschult, damit sie sich perspektivisch pro-aktiv in ihre Gesellschaft 

einbringen und in ihrer Gemeinde beteiligen können. 

Jewish migrants in Europe. ZWST is an experienced provider of educational programs with 

everyday life oriented content. Such informal education plays an important role in enabling the 

personal development of participants. This workshop is addressed to Jewish migrants living in 

Europe, whose talents and competences are not used. They feel useless, suffer from social isolation 

but actually willing to strengthen their self-confidence, to face up to new tasks, to be able to live the 

Jewish culture as part of European cultural diversity. The workshop activities of everyday life (such 

as cooking) and activities that the participants are familiar with (such as festivals and customs) are 

shown in an European context. An issue of paramount importance is the social aspect of such 

workshops. While introducing themselves, relating their own life experience, describing problems 

they daily confront, listening to other participants all of them get a chance to improve their self 

perception and to train their integration capacity. All these aspects could help them to find their own 

way of overwhelming social isolation, very typical for this group and become an active member of 

the local Jewish community and society in general. 


1. Koscher Kochen: Bedeutung von Kaschrut. Gemeinsam wird der Unterschied zwischen 

koscheren und nicht-koscheren Lebensmitteln erarbeitet. Eine Auswahl an koscheren Rezepten für 

den Alltag und für Festtage (wie Chanukkah, Purim, Shawuot) wird besprochen - gemeinsames 

Kochen rundet diese Aktivität ab. 

2. Jüdische Feste: Themen rund um jüdische Feiertage begleiten alle Workshop-Aktivitäten (siehe 

Kochen, Tanzen, Hebräisch). Die Hauptfeste des jüdischen Kalenderjahres dienen der Erkundung 

der gelebten Traditionen und Bräuche in ganz Europa und bei den Teilnehmern. 

77

3. Hebräisch: hebräische Begriffe und Redewendungen werden in alle Aktivitäten eingebaut, 

zusätzlich wird es am Anfang eine Workshopeinheit zum hebräischen Grundvokabular geben. Die 

Teilnehmer werden am Ende ein eigenes Workshop-Hebräisch-Wörterbuch besitzen. 

4. Tanzen und Singen: den Ausgangspunkt bilden jüdische Feste. Tänze werden den Traditionen 

zugeordnet, Schritte werden erlernt und eine kleine Choreographie wird einstudiert. 

1. Kosher Cooking: meaning of Kashrut, difference between kosher and non-kosher foods; kosher 

recipes for the holiday and everyday (like Chanukah, Purim, Shavuot) and cooking together 

2. Jewish holidays, customs and traditions - the main festivals of the Jewish calendar; reflection on 

traditions and customs in European and individual context of the participants 

3. Hebrew – at the beginning the ABC-course of Hebrew concerning workshop topics. Participants 

will create their own Workshop-Hebrew-Dictionary 

4. Dancing and singing - dances as part of Jewish culture, basic dance steps will be learned and a 

little choreography rehearsed

Understanding Marginalisation - Working for Inclusion. The Case of 

Berlin /Ausgrenzung verstehen - Inklusion erleben. Das Beispiel 

Berlin. 

Subject area: Social integration / exclusion 





People of all ages, social backgrounds, abilities and economic status who are interested in the topic 

of marginalization and social inclusion / empowerment. Individuals who personally experience(d) 

marginalization and / or who benefited from empowerment policies and strategies are particularly 

welcome to join our workshop. 


Exchange and discuss (1) on one hand experiences of and knowledge on marginalization of 

different types and in different countries of Europe and (2) on the other hand strategies and policies 

aiming at countering these exclusions and at benefiting from diversity, such as quotas, negotiated 

agreements and cultural interventions of marginalized groups. The workshop aims at a critical 

evaluation of the effects and benefits of strategies of empowerment / inclusion through a precise 

understanding of the mechanisms that are at the basis of marginalization. The cases of 

marginalization and empowerment we will discuss refer to ethnic identity, special bodily needs, 

gender and sexual orientation. We will learn about them both in workshop sessions and through 

meetings with representatives of marginalized communities / groups and experts on empowerment 

policies. The case studies we will look at are particularly relevant for the context of Berlin. 

However, participants will be asked to contribute to the workshop with inputs on cases of 

empowerment and marginalization in their country of residence. On this basis, we will finally 

discuss how we can work for a European society committed to a positive perspective on diversity, 

to equality and inclusion.

Deutsch lernen durch die Poesie des Körpers, des Gedichtes und des 

Alltags 

Subject area: Foreign language teaching and learning 




50+ 


Mit täglichen spielerischen Übungen zu Haltung, Bewegung, Gleichgewicht, Atem und Stimme 

erfahren die TeilnehmerInnen die körperliche Grundlage der Sprache. Durch aktive körperliche 

Entspannung lässt sich eine Fremdsprache viel leichter lernen. Gedichte zeigen wunderbar den 

Sprachrhythmus und fördern auch den Sprachfluss. Während eines Spazierganges durch den Park 

an der Ilm werden die TeilnehmerInnen das erste Mal mit Goethe und seinem "Gedicht an den 

Mond" vertraut gemacht. Das Gedicht entstand in der Nähe das Goethe Gartenhauses und wird am 

Ende des Spazierganges dort im Orginal besichtigt. Auf den Spuren Goethes wandert die Gruppe 

den Maria-Pawlowna-Weg von Tiefurt nach Kromsdorf. Am Rande des Weges befinden sich 

Steintafeln mit bekannten Zitaten Goethes die gemeinsam gelesen und sprachlich erschlossen 

werden. In kleinen Alltagsdialogen lernen die Teilnehmer Fragen zu stellen und eignen sich einen 

Wortschatz zu Grundsituationen des täglichen Lebens an. Durch ein Sprachtagebuch bleibt das 

Erlebte und Gelernte sicher lange in Erinnerung. Der Höhepunkt des Workshops ist ein Dichterfest 

auf dem alle Teilnehmer mit neuem Selbstvertrauen etwas in deutscher Sprache vorlesen oder 

vorspielen. Die Fremdsprache wird zur Freundessprache.

Metropolis – Urban Learning 

Subject area: Pedagogy and didactics 





Erwachsene mit Offenheit und der Bereitschaft für interkulturelles Lernen. Der Workshop ist 

platziert inmitten von Parks und Häuserschluchten, Teilnehmende lernen zu improvisieren, 

probieren neue Wege aus und setzen Akzente im in mitten des urbanen Umfelds. Zudem spricht 

METROPOLIS vor allem Menschen an, die auf Grund ihrer Biographie, Herkunft finanzieller 

Ausstattung und Geschichte bisher schlechten Zugang zu Bildungsprogrammen hatten. 


Active exploration and urban learning between parks and street canyons: Participants can 

experience the City of Wiesbaden actively and inter-culturally. The urban environment offers a 

wide variety of possibilities to explore and activities to choose from and provides options for 

personality development. By means of educational play, theatrical pedagogy and experiential 

education, an early concept of urban learning is presented and executed. Soft skills, such as 

capacity for teamwork, decision-making ability, communication and empathy are to be made 

experienceable for the participants and can be exercised in the learning section „City“. The learners 

are motivated to act actively, interactively and communicatively. The activities should challenge the 

participants and allow for a change in perspective. The main principle involves the consolidation 

and deepening of the events and experiences by subsequent reflection. Over time applications of the 

different methods are to be highlighted and compared. Urban Learning is action-oriented and finds 

multiple uses in institutions of non-formal education. The participants have the opportunity to help 

shape the design of the course in the beginning phase. Emphasis can be placed on experiential 

education-oriented activities, on multimedia-based installations or on the creation of an animated 

film with urban objects. Experiences, creativity, imagination, curiosity and joy will be set free by 

the exploration of the city. Experiential opportunities and activities in the city are varied and the 

character-building possibilities are to be easy and effective. 

METROPOLIS ist aktive Stadterkundung und urbanes Lernen zwischen Parks und 

Häuserschluchten: Die Teilnehmer können die City von Wiesbaden aktiv und interkulturell erleben. 

Die Erlebnismöglichkeiten und Aktionsvarianten im urbanen Umfeld sind vielfältig und bieten 

Möglichkeiten zur Persönlichkeitsbildung. Mit Mitteln der Spiel-, Theater-, und Erlebnispädagogik 

wird ein erstes Konzept von urbanem Lernen vorgestellt und durchgeführt. Für die Teilnehmer 

sollen Softskills, wie Teamfähigkeit, Entscheidungsfähigkeit, Kommunikation und Empathie 

erlebbar gemacht werden. Denn diese fungieren als Schlüsselqualifikationen und können im 

Lernfeld „Stadt“ trainiert werden. Die Lernenden werden dabei zum aktiven, interaktiven und 

81

kommunikativen Handeln motiviert. Die Aktionen sollen bei den Teilnehmern einen 

Perspektivenwechsel ermöglichen und sie herausfordern. Das zentrale Prinzip ist es, die Erlebnisse 

und die Erfahrungen, die in den Aktionen gemacht werden, durch anschließende Reflexion zu 

vertiefen und zu verankern. Dabei sollen im weiteren Verlauf Einsatzmöglichkeiten der 

verschiedenen Methoden beleuchtet und verglichen werden. Urbanes Lernen ist handlungsorientiert 

und findet vielfache Verwendung bei Einrichtungen der nicht-formalen Bildung. Die 

Teilnehmenden bekommen in der Anfangsphase des Workshops die Möglichkeit das Kursdesign 

mit zu gestalten. Schwerpunkte können gelegt werden bei z.B. erlebnispädagogisch orientierten 

Aktionen, bei multimedialen Rauminstallationen oder bei der Erstellung eines Animationsfilm mit 

urbanen Objekten. Erlebnisse, Kreativität, Phantasie, Neugierde und Freude werden bei der 

Stadterkundung freigesetzt. Die Erlebnismöglichkeiten und Aktionsvarianten sind in der Stadt 

vielfältig und die Möglichkeiten zur Persönlichkeitsbildung sollen leicht und effektiv 

wahrgenommen werden.

interkulturellen Austausch. Für die Teilnahme am Workshop sind keine künstlerischen Kenntnisse 

oder Vorerfahrungen erforderlich. Ein Grundwortschatz in Deutsch oder Englisch ist empfohlen. 

The target groups are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersexual adult learners with a 

variety of social, ethnic and cultural backgrounds. The participants are interested in experimenting 

with techniques and means of expression in visual art, and are open for experiencing art 

individually and for intercultural exchange. To participate practical experiences with art aren't 

necessarily required. Basic language skills in German or English are recommended. 


Der Workshop bietet den Teilnehmenden die Möglichkeit, verschiedene künstlerische Materialien 

und bildnerische Gestaltungstechniken (Zeichnung, Malerei, Bildhauerei, Collage- und 

Drucktechniken) kennenzulernen und durch spielerisches Experimentieren ihre eigenen 

gestalterischen Vorlieben und Ausdrucksformen zu finden. Die TeilnehmerInnen haben 

Gelegenheit, gemeinsam in der Gruppe wie auch individuell für sich zu gestalten. Dabei wird mit 

künstlerischen Methoden sowohl themenbezogen wie auch in freier Gestaltung gearbeitet. Die 

Teilnehmenden werden von den Workshop-Leiterinnen bei der Umsetzung ihrer künstlerischen 

Vorhaben unterstützt. Es besteht die Möglichkeit, sich gemeinsam in der Gruppe über die 

entstandenen Arbeiten und die damit verbundenen persönlichen Erfahrungen unter 

Berücksichtigung von Herkunft und Kultur auszutauschen. Der Workshop bietet zudem einen 

geschützten Raum, um sich mit Themen wie z.B. sexueller und geschlechtlicher Identität, homound/oder 

transphoben Diskriminierungserfahrungen oder eigenen Lebensentwürfen im Kontext 

kulturspezifischer Rollenerwartungen künstlerisch auseinanderzusetzen. 

Workshop Language will be German and English. 

Participants are offered widespread possibilities to get to know various artistic materials and visual 

techniques (drawing, painting, sculpturing, techniques of collage and printing). By playful 

experimenting they can discover individual creative preferences and means of expression. 

83

The participants can be creative on their own as well as in the group. Artistic methods will be both 

issue-specific and focusing on free creativity. 

The workshop facilitators support participants in their artistic plans. Participants are invited to 

exchange about their artwork and related personal experiences in consideration of their social, 

ethnical and cultural backgrounds. 

The workshop wants to offer a safe space where experiences around sexual and gender identity, 

homophobic and trans phobic discrimination or individual life scripts are dealt with by art in mutual 

respect and in the context of culture-specific role expectations. 

The main focus of the workshop is the participants' mobilization and strengthening of positive 

resources of power and individual coping strategies. The creative process results in relaxation, relief 

and self-empowerment. By creative dealing with topics related to sexual and/or gender identity in a 

safe space, participants are supported to find empowering coping strategies and transfer them 

afterwards in their local and regional contexts into action. 

The participants' learning experiences will be intensified by the intercultural exchange and are 

planned to strengthen the capacities and strategies for empowerment. 

Part of the workshop is also a jointly prepared public showing at the TrIQ e.V. space, plus a 

brochure and documentation on the workshop. The showcase will be jointly developed by the 

participants throughout the workshop.

Der Tod und das Meer 


Ethics, religions, philosophy 




Menschen jeden Alters, die sich mit dem Thema Sterben und Tod auseinandersetzen, die Wege 

finden möchten, wie sie damit umgehen wollen. Auch ältere, kranke Menschen oder Menschen, die 

in der nahen Umgebung von Älteren und Kranken leben, mögen sich angesprochen fühlen. 

Persons of every age trying to find ways to deal with Death and Dying. We would like to invite 

elderly and/or needy people as much as people who care for or live together with sick and/or senior 

persons. 


Der Ort Nebel auf der Insel Amrum, die historischen Grabsteine auf dem Friedhof St. Clemens, der 

Namenlosenfriedhof, die Kriegsgräberstätte: Hier bietet sich die angemessene Kulisse für eine 

Auseinandersetzung mit dem Thema Tod – inmitten des Weltkulturerbes Wattenmeer. In diesem 

Workshop haben die Teilnehmenden die Möglichkeit, danach zu fragen, woher wir kommen und 

wohin wir gehen, wie wir das Altern und Sterben gestalten wollen, soweit uns dies überhaupt 

möglich ist. Individuelle Antworten sind hier gefragt, aber auch die Fragen, wie sich die 

Gesellschaft zu diesem Thema verhält und welche Rahmenbedingungen für unsere 

Lebensgestaltung vorbestimmt sind, werden aufgeworfen. Was bringt jede und jeder einzelne von 

uns mit in diese Gemeinschaft? Wie gehen wir mit Anforderungen und Ansprüchen um, die in 

diesem Zusammenhang an uns als Einzelpersonen und als Gesellschaft gestellt werden? Die 

Auseinandersetzung mit den verschiedenen Begräbnis- und Trauerkulturen, Überzeugungen und 

Werten – solche Fragen wollen wir uns im Rahmen des Workshops stellen. Teilnehmende 

verschiedener Altersgruppen und aus verschiedenen Ländern, Religionen und Kulturen, können hier 

mit ihren Ansichten und Wertvorstellungen im gegenseitigen Austausch zu neuen Denkanstößen 

verhelfen. Die Beschäftigung mit dem Thema Tod und Sterben soll nicht nur durch Gespräche und 

Diskussionen bearbeitet werden. Durch Exkursionen sowie künstlerische und gestalterische Arbeit 

soll breiter Raum gegeben werden für ein Lernen im multinationalen Kontext. Zum Abschluss des 

Workshops werden die Erfahrungen, Kompetenzen und Erkenntnisse der Teilnehmenden sichtbar 

und einem breiten Interessentenkreis zugänglich gemacht. 

Nebel is a little village on the Isle of Amrum/Nordfriesland, Germany. The historical graveyard 

with its „talking“ tombstones, the cemetary of the „Nameless“, the war memorial and old Teutonic 

graves on Amrum are most suitable to start a dialogue about Death and Dying – amidst the World 

Heritage of the Mud Flats in the North Sea.

Chancen europäischer Grenzerfahrungen - ein Szenario-Workshop 






Menschen mit Grenzerfahrungen, die keine Angst vor der Zukunft haben und die sich auf das 

Abenteuer einlassen wollen, einmal eine eigene Radiosendung zu produzieren. 

People with experiences in European boundaries who are not afraid of the future and who want to 

join the experiment to produce their own radio programme. 


Haben Sie Lust in die Zukunft Europas zu blicken? Wollen Sie herausfinden, wie sich das 

Alltagsleben an einer fiktiven europäischen Binnengrenze bis zum Jahr 2025 entwickelt? Das geht 

gar nicht, sagen Sie? Lassen Sie sich vom Gegenteil überzeugen. In diesem Workshop bekommen 

Sie das notwendige Handwerkszeug dafür. Sie werden mit Hilfe der Szenario-Methode 

unterschiedliche Zukunftsgeschichten für die Grenzregion in Europa entwerfen, und damit 

mögliche Realitäten des Jahres 2025 beschreiben. Und Sie werden anhand dieser Geschichten eine 

Radiosendung für das Internet produzieren. Zur inhaltlichen Vorbereitung wird ein Exkursionstag 

an die deutsch-polnische Grenze in die Doppelstadt Frankfurt / Slubice organisiert. Dort werden Sie 

Vorbildprojekte besuchen und die Grenze mit ihren Problemen, Chancen und Perspektiven hautnah 

erfahren. 

Would you like to take a look into Europe´s future? Do you want to find out, how the daily life at a 

fictional internal EU border will be in the Year 2025? You mean that doesn´t work? Get convinced 

to the contrary! This Workshop will offer you the necessary tools. The scenario-approach will help 

you to develop different stories about the future in a European border region and to describe 

different realities for the year 2025. Based on these stories you will produce a radio programme for 

the world wide web. In order to be suitable prepared we will travel to the nearby German-polish 

border towns Frankfurt (Oder) and Slubice. There you will have a look at best practice projects. 

And you will experience the frontier with all its problems, chances and perspectives at first hand.

MentalTOP und Bewegung mit Tradition und Musik - geistig fit und 

aktiv ein Leben lang 





Erwachsene Lernende über 18 Jahre, Einzelpersonen oder kleine Gruppe von Lernenden aus 

unterschiedlichen Staaten, mit Interesse an gemeinsamen multinationalen Lernerfahrungen. 


1) Vorstellen der Nationalitäten und deren Brauchtumspflege: z.B. Bilder, Produkte, Erzählungen, 

Zeichnungen. Darstellung der einzelnen Nationen an Moderationswand. Vorstellungsrunde und 

Abfrage der Erwartungen: Die Erwartungen werden mit Karten gesammelt und an die 

Moderationswand gepinnt. Diese Übersicht dient im Verlauf immer wieder zur Überprüfung und 

zum Ende des WS werden die Erwartungen nochmals überprüft: wurden sie erfüllt?! Wenn nicht, 

was braucht der TN noch, damit er zufrieden nach Hause fahren kann. Verbesserungen für künftige 

Angebote. 

2) Einführung in MentalTOP: Geistige Fitness ein Leben lang im Alltag erhalten. Wichtigkeit der 

Bewegung, Funktion des Gehirns, was passiert beim Gedächtnistraining? 

3) Bayerns Bekanntheit in der Welt: Vorurteile, Stereotypen und Realität des bayerischen 

Brauchtums. Verknüpfung zur Traditionserhaltung in anderen europäischen Ländern (Gespräch und 

Diskussion mit Teilnehmern) 

4) Verknüpfung von Tradition und Bewegung: Bewegung zur Lernunterstützung anhand typisch 

bayerischer Tänze: Anleitung zum Schuhplatteln und Zwiefachen-Tanz durch Trachtenvereine und 

Musikkapellen. Erlernen von einfachem Liedgut. 

5) Gehirnjogging und Gedächtnistraining traditionell: Kartenspiele wie das „Watten“ oder 

„Schafkopfen“ stellen die Teilnehmer vor hohe kognitive Aufgaben. Auf diese Weise werden in der 

Freizeit und unter Einbezug traditioneller Freizeitkultur die „grauen Zellen“ der Teilnehmer 

gestärkt. 

6) Entspannung: Um gute geistige Leistungen abrufen zu können, darf die Entspannung nicht 

vernachlässigt werden. MentalTop bietet hier eine Reihe von Übungen zum Entspannen. Im 

Workshop erhalten die Teilnehmer bewusst freie Zeiträume, um diese zum „Runterkommen“ zu 

verwenden und/oder sich die Zeit zu vertreiben (z.B. Stadtbesichtigung, kulturelle 

Sehenswürdigkeiten)

Overcome Borders - Gain Mobility! 


Education of specific target groups: (occupational travellers, migrants, travellers, 

Roma) 




People from the age of 20 and older, who want to work and travel abroad and who want to 

experience the changes in border-regimes and mobility in Europe in the last thirty years. The 

participants will challenge their own borders in the head and gain strategies to cross borders in 

comfort, in order to perceive mobility as a natural part of their everyday life. 


The main activities will be interactive tools to ensure a permanent process of exchanging 

experiences and gathering individual experiences within matter of mobility and crossing borders. 

We will give an overview on the relevant tools and portals on mobility to learn how to deal with 

borders tomorrow but will experience as well borders yesterday and today. Part of the program will 

be a bike tour along the former wall stripe in Berlin, where will meet eye-witness of the wall time 

and see with our won eyes, how a former hard border disappeared. In an excursion to the German- 

Polish border region, we will meet current actors on the integration process and learn how life is 

today on both sides of the border. Therefore we will organise a “German-Polish Border Ralley” and 

make street interviews. Along with these activities we will meet representatives from the 

Euroregion, experts on mobility and share our experiences with each other.

Subject area: Other 




Cooperative Games and Circle Dances 

Adults of all age groups to apply. No prior experience is needed, though participants are welcome 

to share their experience if they have any. The many practical and non-verbal aspects of these 

workshops permit also those with a limited command of the English language to be able to follow – 

but participants should have some basic command of the language. 


We will alternate between practicing dances and games, small theoretical units and interacting with 

and getting to know the local intentional community of the Ecovillage Sieben Linden. The 

participants will get to know a variety of traditional dances from various countries around Europe 

and Israel, experiencing directly the diversity of temperaments among the different cultures as part 

of Europe’s cultural heritage. Cooperative games, as opposed to most traditional games have neither 

winners nor losers. This permits all players to have fun, relax and enjoy themselves. This type of 

games can enrich everyone’s lives and be used at parties, meetings, to get to know each other in a 

group of unfamiliar people and many other ways. This workshop focuses especially on the 

community building aspects of both games and circle dances. Participants will experience how 

dancing and playing together brings people closer, bridges differences in background, age and 

culture and builds group spirit. Partly, the work will be done in smaller groups assembled according 

to participant’s interests. Here, Participants will prepare and practice facilitating a dance or game 

and teaching it to others. On the last day, the workshop participants and facilitators will host an 

afternoon/evening open to the local public offering the games and dances learned during the 

previous days for all to participate, a moment of celebration.

Make Yourself Heard 






People of all ages with an interest in vocal music and the voice, and in intercultural dialogue, 

making music together and creative activity, especially people with: - migrant backgrounds - little 

formal musical education or training - little experience of foreign countries and working in a 

multicultural group 

Menschen aller Altersstufen mit Interesse an Vokalmusik und Stimme, und an interkulturellem 

Austausch sowie gemeinsamen Musizieren und kreativem Tun, besonders Menschen mit: - 

Migrationshintergrund - Wenig formalen musik-bezogenen Kenntnissen - Wenig Erfahrung in 

Auslandsaufenthalten und interkultureller Arbeit 


We will get to know songs and the cultures they come from through learning and singing them 

together. Each participant will bring songs from his or her original and new homeland to teach to 

others from other countries. We will talk about what these songs mean to us and what they say 

about our homelands and their people. You don’t have to be able to read music; we learn the songs 

by singing together, the most natural way in the oral tradition. We will also learn to use our voices 

more strongly, firmly, subtly and convincingly, without strain or stress, so that we can feel more at 

ease and make ourselves heard in the many everyday situations where we have to assert ourselves 

(speaking in front of a group, at work and in the neighbourhood) and take a more active part in our 

community. Two experienced breathing, speech and voice trainers will lead a varied and enjoyable 

programme of movement and voice exercises that will teach us a lot about the power and beauty of 

our voices. We will see and hear our progress by recording ourselves on video and audio, and with 

a computer-assisted voice analysis programme. We will also work on ‘stage fright’ and learn 

exercises that help us use our nervousness constructively. We will live and work together in a 

friendly seminar house next to a wood on the edge of Hannover. To celebrate we will invite guests 

and acquaintances to a ‘voice café’ concert, but our main purpose is to enjoy our own and each 

other’s voices and learn a lot about each other and with each other. 

Wir werden durch die Vokalmusik einander und andere Kulturen kennen lernen. Jede/r bringt 

Lieder aus ihren/seinen alten und neuen Heimatländer mit und bringt uns allen sie in der 

Originalsprache bei. Dabei erzählen wir, was diese Lieder uns bedeuten und was sie über unsere 

Länder und ihre Völker zu sagen haben. Noten muss man nicht lesen können; wir lernen die Lieder 

durch Nachsingen, wie es eigentlich am natürlichsten geschieht. Wir lernen auch, unsere eigenen 

Stimmen stärker, fester, überzeugender und schonender zu nutzen, und schöner und differenzierter 

zu sprechen, um in den vielen Alltagssituationen, in den wir uns behaupten müssen (vor einer 

96

Gruppe sprechen, bei der Arbeit und in der Nachbarschaft uns Gehör schaffen) wohler zu fühlen 

und effektiver in unseren Gesellschaften agieren zu können. Zwei erfahrene Atem- Sprech und 

StimmlehrerInnen leiten ein buntes Programm von Bewegungs- und Stimmübungen, die viel Spaß 

machen und viele neue Erkenntnisse über die Kraft und Schönheit unserer Stimme vermitteln. 

Unseren Fortschritt werden wir u.a. durch Video- und Tonaufnahmen und anhand einer 

computergestützen Analyseverfahren merken. Wir werden uns auch mit dem Thema 

‚Lampenfieber’ beschäftigen und Übungen lernen, damit wir unsere Nervosität positiv nutzen 

können, Wir wohnen und arbeiten zusammen in einem freundlichen Seminarhaus neben einem 

Wald am Stadtrand von Hannover. Als Abschluss laden wir Gäste und Bekannte zu einem Konzert 

mit Caféambiente ein, aber wir sollten in erster Linie Freude an unseren eigenen Stimmen finden 

und von- und miteinander viel lernen.

Meaningful Conversation – Insights and Skills for building bridges in 

communication 



Other 



Citizens of EU countries who are socially and economically disadvantaged and/or have limited 

access to opportunities of education; people being interested in understanding more about the nature 

of communication, and in learning how to communicate successfully and meaningfully; people 

wanting to participate in society. 


We will create a vibrant learning community meeting in a constructive and focussed as well as 

playful and relaxing atmosphere. We will enquire into the nature of communication and typical 

challenges like misunderstandings and conflicts. We will learn more about ourselves by exploring 

into our voice, body language and general characters in communication. We will write creatively, 

and learn to speak up in front of small groups. A lesson on the inner critique will tell us how to 

coach and support ourselves. We will learn how to listen deeply, and how to give and receive 

feedback. We will learn about modern tools for conflict-resolution and non-violent-communication. 

We will learn to mutually support each other with simple coaching techniques. We will experience 

world cafe and open space as settings for participatory and self-organized active citizenship. We 

will visit a regional citizens' initiative for an exchange on cultural differences in participatory 

citizenship. We will learn more about living in the self-organized ecovillage of Sieben Linden. 

Throughout the workshop we will celebrate cultural diversity and focus on the possibilities for 

mutual learning within an international group from all over Europe.

Our Berlin – Discover your intercultural skills through film 



Roma) 




Persons from 23 and older, who are interested in strengthening their intercultural competences 

through new techniques. In the Workshop we will use the method of “Digital Storytelling” and film 

making to gather another point of view on other cultures. Participants do not need any experiences 

in film making, but should be willing to work together in creative, open processes. In the week 

participants will meet other Europeans and will challenge their own image of living together in 

Europe. 


The main activities will be interactive tools to ensure a permanent process of exchanging 

experiencess and gathering individual experiences within matter of intercultural dialogue and sense 

of “EuropeanessEuropeanisms”. The goal will be reached by intercultural sensibilisation awareness 

trainings and discussions in a personal, nNon- formal atmosphere. The main focus will be 

nevertheless on the process of creating short movies on European and intercultural matters, taking 

Berlin as a stage.

Heimat Europa?!- Eine generationenübergreifende neue Impulse 

gebende Auseinandersetzung Lernender 






Haben Sie Spaß am interkulturellen Austausch und interessieren Sie sich für das Thema "Europa"? 

Möchten Sie sich auf die Suche nach Ihren europäischen Wurzeln machen? Möchten Sie Ihre 

Deutschkenntnisse ausprobieren? Wir laden Erwachsene aus den EU Ländern, der Türkei und 

Kroatien mit guten Deutschkenntnissen ein, an unserem Workshop teilzunehmen. 


Was ist Heimat? Ein Ort, an dem ich geboren bin? Meine Stadt, mein Land, meine Sprache, 

Religion? Meine Freunde, meine Familie? Fern der Heimat versteht man am besten was Heimat 

bedeutet. Heimat ist kein Ort, Heimat ist ein Gefühl" singt Herbert Grönemeyer. Was bedeutet 

Heimat in einer globalisierten Welt, im vereinigten Europa? Was ist Europa genau? Wo sind die 

Grenzen, wie ist die Geschichte? Welche Werte hat Europa? Worin besteht die „Einheit in Vielfalt" 

und was bedeutet für mich persönlich "Europabürgerschaft"? Wir möchten diesen Fragen 

nachgehen. Breiten Raum werden dabei das gegenseitige Kennenlernen und der Austausch mit den 

anderen internationalen Teilnehmer/innen des Workshops einnehmen. Jeder bekommt die 

Gelegenheit sich und seine Heimat am Beginn des Workshops vorzustellen. "Lernen durch 

Handeln" ist ein wichtiges Element unseres Workshops. Daher werden wir in Pforzheim nach 

Spuren einer gemeinsamen europäischen Vergangenheit suchen und die "Fundstücke" als Impulse 

für Diskussionen, neue Erkenntnisse und praktische Tätigkeiten (z.B. Schmuck- und 

Kalligraphieworkshop) nehmen. Auch eine Exkursion in die Hauptstadt Europas" Straßburg ist 

geplant. In Pforzheim wurde 1455 Johannes Reuchlin geboren. Er und sein Freund Erasmus von 

Rotterdam waren die bedeutendsten europäischen Humanisten. Reuchlin beherrschte fünf 

Fremdsprachen, hatte Verbindungen in ganz Europa und sprach sich stets für Meinungsfreiheit, 

Religionsfreiheit und Toleranz aus. Welche Impulse können wir von Johannes Reuchlin heute 

aufnehmen? Pforzheim ist die "Goldstadt" Deutschlands, 80 % des deutschen Schmuckexports 

kommt aus Pforzheim. Im weltweit einzigartigen Schmuckmuseum werden wir Hinweise zu den 

Wurzeln europäischer Kultur(en) finden - zu Besonderheiten und Gemeinsamkeiten. Weitere 

Spuren werden wir bei den Pforzheimern selber suchen. Pforzheim ist sehr stark international 

ausgerichtet. 42 % der Einwohner haben einen Migrationshintergrund. Wie sehen sie "Europa"? 

Und wie wird es in Ihrer Heimatstadt gesehen?

European transitions from dictatorship to democracy in the late 

1980ies and their relevance for Europe today 






Adult learners of all ages and educational backgrounds are invited. Participants are expected to have 

an interest in the political transitions in the late 80ies and their relevance for Europe today and a 

good oral command of English. Reading and writing skills are of secondary importance. 

Accommodation and workshop rooms are wheelchair accessible. 


The workshop starts by asking for your own memories, experience and knowledge of the political 

transitions in your own country and/or other European countries. We will share and illustrate our 

memories, perspectives and reflections through "objects" (pictures, newspaper clippings, letters, 

documents etc) related to the political transitions in Europe. Field trips to memorial sites in Berlin 

and discussions with eyewitnesses will help us to understand the variety and diversity of the 

political transition processes in Europe and their consequence for today's political and personal life. 

In the second phase of the workshop we will play a simulation reflecting several aspects of the 

transitions. The setup of this regime change simulation is a fictitious country, which allows us to 

focus on some basic elements and dominant interest groups involved in the political transitions 

throughout Europe.

Migration: Eine europäische Herausforderung 






All people who are politically interested in global interrelations and who would like to be part of a 

cross-national exchange of knowledge and experience in regard to refugee policy within the 

different EU countries. 

Menschen, die politisch interessiert sind und die Lust auf einen länderübergreifenden Erfahrungs– 

und Wissensaustausch haben, in dem es um die Auseinandersetzung mit gGlobalen Problemen und 

die Flüchtlingspolitik der EU-Länder geht. 


Through globalization, the internet and affordable ways of travelling the world has become very 

accessible for a lot of people. EU citizens travel as much as never before. On the other side there are 

many “involuntary travellers” in many places of the world. People who leave their homes searching 

for places that can offer them better chances. Current statistics from the UNHCR (United Nations 

High Commissioner for Refugees) count 43 millions of refugees. The workshop will look at this 

discrepancy by pointing out our life situations in Europe on the one hand and the situation of 

refugees coming to Europe on the other hand. Given the increasing numbers of people fleeing to 

Europe we also want to discuss the controversial question if our European societies will have to pay 

more attention to the circumstance of growing migration or if the EU already takes on enough 

responsibility. The Workshop opens space to look into current global problems, to share 

informations and to discuss them. The program will consist out of: presentations by experts of 

European foreign politics; meetings with foreign aid organizations; exchange about the refugee 

policies of our countries; discussion about perspectives – how can we face these global problems 

from a European perspective? 

Durch die Globalisierung, das Internet und günstige Reisemöglichkeiten ist die Welt für viele 

Menschen in hohem Maße zugänglich geworden. EU– BürgerInnen reisen heutzutage so viel wie 

noch nie zuvor. Auf der anderen Seite befinden sich aber in vielen Teilen der Welt „Reisende wider 

Willen“. Weltweit verlassen Menschen ihre Heimat, auf der Suche nach Orten, die ihnen bessere 

Chancen bieten. Die Statistik der UNHCR (der Flüchtlingsorganisation der UN) geht von 43 

Millionen Menschen aus, die sich derzeit auf der Flucht befinden. Im Workshop wird es um diese 

Widersprüche gehen. Wir befassen unsd zum einen mit unseren eigenen Lebensbedingungen in 

Europa, zum Anderen beleuchten wir die Situation von Flüchtlingen, die nach Europa kommen 

möchten. Angesichts der zunehmenden Flüchtlingsströme in die EU, möchten wir mit Euch (gerne 

auch kontrovers) die Frage diskutieren, ob Migration eine Herausforderung für unsere europäische 

108

Gesellschaft ist, der wir uns zukünftig noch stärker stellen müssen, oder ob die EU bereits genug 

Verantwortung übernimmt. Der Workshop eröffnet den Raum, sich mit hochaktuellen globalen 

Problemen auseinanderzusetzen– sich gemeinsam zu informieren und zu diskutieren. Das 

Workshop-Pprogramm wird u.a. beinhalten: Referate von ExpertInnen zur europäischen 

Außenpolitik; Besuche von Berliner Entwicklungshilfeprojekten; Austausch über die 

Flüchtlingspolitik in den jeweiligen Ländern, aus denen wir kommen; Perspektiven– wie kann den 

gGlobalen Problemen aus europäischer Perspektive begegnet werden?

Miteinander für Demokratie, Menschenrechte und Toleranz 



Working language(s): DE, EN 


Adult learners who are interested in gaining an understanding of conflicts and conflict resolution as 

a learning opportunity for oneself, for a group and for a democracy and who are ready to work on 

their personal attitudes towards conflict and notion of democracy by means of interactive methods. 

Even if the main working language will be English also participants with very basic English 

language skills are welcome as we can also hold sessions partly in German and Spanish and 

consecutive translation can be provided in the group sessions. 

Erwachsenen Lernenden die ein Verständnis von Konflikten bzw. von Konfliktlösung als eigene 

Lernchance sowie für Gruppen und Demokratien bekommen möchten und die bereit sind, mittels 

interaktiver Methoden, an ihrer persönlichen Konfliktfähigkeit und an ihrem Demokratieverständnis 

zu arbeiten. Obwohl die Hauptarbeitssprache Englisch ist, sind auch Teilnehmende mit wenig 

Englischkenntnissen willkommen, da die Workshop-Abschnitte sessions teilweise auch auf Deutsch 

oder Spanisch, bzw. mit konsekutiver Übersetzung gehalten werden können. 


The Workshop aims at approaching conflicts and to see them as learning opportunities as well as 

confronting ourselves with an understanding of democracy, which grants all people an equal right to 

freedom. Hereby we will acquire competences in dealing with minorities and majorities and with 

conflicts in everyday life. We will also deal with themes such as democratic principles, decisionmaking, 

basic rights, equality, etc. 

On the first workshop day, we will get to know each others well, in order to lay a good base for this 

experiential and learner-centered workshop. This includes the assessment of the wishes and 

expectations of each of us concerning the workshop as well as finding out about our background 

and connection to the theme. In form of an exercise we will lay the base for our personal interaction 

in the group during the workshop. 

On the second day we will already enter into the subject matter “conflicts” in the context of 

diversity, democracy and tolerance. The first part of the day we will do group exercises and in the 

afternoon we will jointly visit a best practice project dealing with the theme in Berlin. Based on 

this, the third day will enable us to discuss conflict in the context of human rights and equal sharing 

of natural resources at global level. This will be done by using exercises of the widely recognized 

“Betzavta” concept, which aims at imparting a different notion of democracy based on equal rights, 

followed by a transfer to different levels of decision-making. The mid-term evaluation will 

encourage participants to make proposals regarding the rest of the program days, which will aim at 

discussing different notions of democracy, freedom, (human) rights, justice, etc. This will be 

supplemented by a number of exercises, underlining the special importance of unbiased 

communication in situations of conflict and in negotiating. Towards the end of the workshop we 

112

will focus on steps to democratic decision-making and will discuss the possibilities to apply the 

workshop learning experience to our everyday lives after our return. 

Der Workshop möchte dazu anregen, sich Konflikten als Lernchancen anzunähern und sich mit 

einem Demokratieverständnis, das allen Menschen das gleiche Recht auf Freiheit gewährt, 

auseinanderzusetzen. Hierdurch werden Kompetenzen im Umgang mit dem Verhältnis von 

Mehrheiten und Minderheiten, Konflikten und Alltagsproblemen erworben, was u.a. auch zu einer 

Auseinandersetzung mit folgenden Themenbereichen beiträgt: Demokratische Prinzipien, 

Entscheidungsfindung, Grundrechte, Gleichheit, etc.. Am ersten Programmtag werden wir uns 

intensiv kennenlernen um eine gute Grundlage für diesen erfahrungsorientierten und interaktiven 

Workshop zu legen. Hierbei geht es auch um die Abklärung unserer Wünsche und Erwartungen und 

das Kennenlernen unserer unterschiedlichen Erfahrungshintergründe bezüglich des Themas. In 

Form einer Übung möchten wir hier auch die Basis für das Miteinander in der Gruppe besprechen. 

Am 2. Tag beginnen wir uns bereits intensiver mit dem Themenfeld Konflikte im Kontext von 

Vielfalt, Demokratie und Toleranz zu befassen: Am Vormittag dienen Übungen zur Anregung und 

am Nachmittag einen Besuch zu einem Praxisprojekt. Am 3. Tag möchten wir auf der Grundlage 

der ersten Tage vertiefend die Bedeutung der Menschenrechte im Kontext gerechter 

Ressourcenverteilung durch Übungen des anerkannten Betzavta Konzepts und den anschließenden 

Transfer auf verschieden Ebenen behandeln. Eine Zwischenevaluation unterstützt die 

teilnehmenden-orientierte Umsetzung der nächsten Workshop - Tage, an denen wir uns mit 

unterschiedlichen Aspekten von Demokratie, Freiheit, (Menschen)Rechten, Gerechtigkeit, etc. 

auseinandersetzen. Dies wird ergänzt durch Übungen zur unvoreingenommenen Kommunikation, 

der in Verhandlungen und in Konflikten eine ganz besondere Bedeutung zukommt. Gegen Ende des 

Workshops geht es schließlich stärker um das Ausprobieren von Schritten zur demokratischen 

Entscheidungsfindung und einemn Transfer der im Workshop gemachten Lernerfahrung in den 

eigenen Alltag nach unserer Rückkehr.

Life Balnace – Mit Bewegung, Ernährung und Entspannung neue 

Lebenskraft schöpfen 



Physical education and sport 



The workshop is addressed at all European citizens who want to enjoy creative cooking and 

explore their own eating habits. The main target group consists of adult learners with limited 

opportunities for travel and transnational experience. No professional skills are requested and a 

basic knowledge of English is sufficient. Preference will be given to adults older than 50 who are 

especially underprivileged concerning access to new learning experiences and who belong to the 

target group that primarily suffers from diet-related diseases. 

Der Workshop richtet sich an alle europäischen Mitbürger, die Spaß an kreativem Kochen haben 

und sich gern mit dem eigenen Essverhalten auseinandersetzen. Die Zielgruppe sind erwachsene 

Lernende, welche nur über begrenzte Reisemöglichkeiten verfügen und bisher kaum oder nur 

eingeschränkten Zugang zu länderübergreifenden Erfahrungen hatten. Es sind keine besonderen 

Fähigkeiten nötig und Grundkenntnisse in Englisch sind ausreichend. Teilnehmer über 50 Jahren 

werden bevorzugt, da es grade für diese Altersgruppe kaum Bildungsmöglichkeiten gibt und sie die 

Hauptgruppe darstellen die von Ernährungsbedingten Krankheiten betroffen sind. 


This workshop deals with a healthy and sustainable vegetarian diet in a fascinating and 

multinational context. A popular vegan chef will show us how to cook a variety of tasty 

international dishes. All participants are invited to share their knowledge on the local recipes of 

their European home countries. Traditional recipes can be exchanged and healthy vegetarian 

varieties discussed and tested. In addition to the cooking lessons a variety of information and field 

trips will be offered. The advantages of a plant-based diet will be discussed and we can learn how to 

prepare healthy, well-balanced and very tasty meals. Together we will discover new possibilities 

and have fun while cooking and exploring. 

The information will always be presented in practice and in an entertaining way. To reach this goal 

a movie night, presentations, workshops and a tour through Berlin's vegetarian shops and 

restaurants will be part of the programme. 

Unser Workshop vermittelt die Kunst der gesunden und nachhaltigen vegetarischen Küche 

spannend und multinational. Wir werden von einem veganen Star-Koch die Zubereitung leckerer, 

abwechslungsreicher und internationaler vegetarischer Gerichte erlernen. Dabei können wir von der 

Beteiligung der Teilnehmer aus den verschiedensten europäischen Nationen profitieren, die ihr 

Wissen zu regionalen Gerichten ihrer Heimatländer mit einbringen. Nationalgerichte werden 

114

ausgetauscht und leckere vegetarische Variationen besprochen und ausprobiert. Neben dem 

Kochkurs gibt es eine breite Palette an Informations- und Exkursionsangeboten. Es wird über die 

Vorteile pflanzlicher Kost aufgeklärt und gezeigt, wie man sich gesund , ausgewogen und dennoch 

sehr lecker ernähren kann. Wir entdecken gemeinsam neue Möglichkeiten und haben Spaß beim 

kochen und lernen. Es wird kurzweilige Aktivitäten, wie einen Videoabend, Präsentationen, 

Workshops und eine Führung durch Berlin, mit seinen vegetarischen Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und 

Lokalen geben.

MentalTOP und Bewegung mit Tradition und Musik – geistig fit und 

aktiv ein Leben lang 





Erwachsene Lernende über 18 Jahre, Einzelpersonen oder kleine Gruppe von Lernenden aus 

unterschiedlichen Staaten, mit Interesse an gemeinsamen multinationalen Lernerfahrungen. 


1) Vorstellen der Nationalitäten und deren Brauchtumspflege: z.B. Bilder, Produkte, Erzählungen, 

Zeichnungen. Darstellung der einzelnen Nationen an Moderationswand. 

Vorstellungsrunde und Abfrage der Erwartungen: 

Die Erwartungen werden mit Karten gesammelt und an die Moderationswand gepinnt. Diese 

Übersicht dient im Verlauf immer wieder zur Überprüfung und zum Ende des WS werden die 

Erwartungen nochmals überprüft: wurden sie erfüllt?! Wenn nicht, was braucht der TN noch, damit 

er zufrieden nach Hause fahren kann. Verbesserungen für künftige Angebote. 

2) Einführung in MentalTOP: Geistige Fitness ein Leben lang im Alltag erhalten. Wichtigkeit der 

Bewegung, Funktion des Gehirns, was passiert beim Gedächtnistraining? 

3) Bayerns Bekanntheit in der Welt: Vorurteile, Stereotypen und Realität des bayerischen 

Brauchtums. Verknüpfung zur Traditionserhaltung in anderen europäischen Ländern (Gespräch und 

Diskussion mit Teilnehmern) 

4) Verknüpfung von Tradition und Bewegung: Bewegung zur Lernunterstützung anhand typisch 

bayerischer Tänze: Anleitung zum Schuhplatteln und Zwiefachen-Tanz durch Trachtenvereine und 

Musikkapellen. Erlernen von einfachem Liedgut. 

5) Gehirnjogging und Gedächtnistraining traditionell: Kartenspiele wie das „Watten“ oder 

„Schafkopfen“ stellen die Teilnehmer vor hohe kognitive Aufgaben. Auf diese Weise werden in der 

Freizeit und unter Einbezug traditioneller Freizeitkultur die „grauen Zellen“ der Teilnehmer 

gestärkt. 

6) Entspannung: Um gute geistige Leistungen abrufen zu können, darf die Entspannung nicht 

vernachlässigt werden. MentalTop bietet hier eine Reihe von Übungen zum Entspannen. Im 

Workshop erhalten die Teilnehmer bewusst freie Zeiträume, um diese zum „Runterkommen“ zu 

verwenden und/oder sich die Zeit zu vertreiben (z.B. Stadtbesichtigung, kulturelle 

Sehenswürdigkeiten).

Europa zu Tisch 






Alle erwachsenen Männer und Frauen, die Wert auf gesunde Ernährung und interkulturelle 

Lernerfahrungen legen und gern kochen. 


Gesunde Ernährung ist in aller Munde – doch viele gute Vorsätze scheitern an der Praxis. Keine 

Zeit, kein Geld und keine Ideen sind die Hauptgründe, die uns davon abhalten, diese Vorsätze zu 

verwirklichen. In unserem einwöchigen Kurs werden wir uns mit gesunder, nachhaltiger und 

alltagstauglicher Ernährung beschäftigen. Im gemeinsamen Austausch erarbeiten wir die 

Zutatenlisten und probieren sie direkt am Herd aus. Die kulinarische Praxis verbinden wir mit 

Theorie und Besuchen auf einem Bio-Hof, einer Käserei u. ä. 

Kochen, Essen und Genießen sind elementare Bestandteile unserer Kulturen. In der Zubereitung 

von Speisen, dem Umgang mit Zutaten sowie beim Essen: Überall entdeckt man kulturelle 

Eigenheiten. In kaum einem anderen Bereich ist die Vielfalt der Regionen Europas mit allen Sinnen 

so unmittelbar zu erleben wie beim Kochen. Die Bereicherung des Speiseplans um Gerichte aus 

ähnlichen Klimazonen mit anderer kulinarischer Tradition ist demnach ein Ziel unseres Workshops. 

Teilnehmer aus verschiedenen Ländern werden jeweils ihr Ernährungs-, Einkaufs-, Koch- und 

Essverhalten gegenüberstellen, miteinander vergleichen und somit den Blick auf die eigenen 

Gewohnheiten erweitern sowie neue Impulse liefern. Darüber hinaus beschäftigen sie sich mit der 

Frage, wie eine verantwortungsbewusste Ernährung morgen aussehen kann. Wie kann man mit 

kleinem Budget und einfachen, schmackhaften Rezepten aus unterschiedlichen Regionen Europas 

die eigene Gesundheit fördern und die Umwelt schützen?

Education Through Sport 





15-20 adult learners from different European countries are expected, who are interested in 

developing their self-confidence and social skills through sportive activities. A wide range of 

participants can apply to the workshop; especially people with the disadvantaged background (e.g. 

unemployed) and from different cultures and regions are welcome. Participants are not required to 

have any previous skills in sports, but should have adequate knowledge in English. 


The aim of the workshop is to develop participants’ individual and social skills, relevant to their 

personal development and learning needs. During the workshop, the participants’ creativity, teamwork 

skills, self-confidence and readiness for collaboration with others will be enhanced. Sport has 

a power to influence people with very different cultural and social background, so it can be used as 

a tool in the education process, providing competence development for personal fulfilment and 

giving an impulse to live more actively. Main activities of the Workshop are planned following the 

prototype of the Olympic Games, where each activity gives us the possibility to learn and/or 

experience some new knowledge, skill or value. The programme of the Workshop consists of four 

different parts, where participants have an active role (learning through action): health, values in 

sport, teamwork and culture. The participants are expected to use their knowledge in their home 

countries, organising the model of “Olympic Games” for introducing Estonian culture as well as 

creating a bases for the uniting their community.

Lerning Spanish with Hispanic Literature 



Pedagogy and didactics 

Working language(s): ES 


Cualquier ciudadano adulto de la Unión Europea interesado en mejorar sus conocimientos de 

español mediante el uso de la literatura hispánica. Por las características del seminario, los 

candidatos habrán de tener, al menos, un nivel de español B1 de acuerdo al Marco común europeo 

de referencia para las lenguas. 

Any adult EU citizen who is interested in improving his/her Spanish through the experience of 

Hispanic literature. In order to be accepted into the seminar, future participants will have to accredit 

a knowledge of Spanish equivalent, at least, to B1 (in the Common European Framework of 

Reference for Languages). 


Actividades principales / Programa del seminario: Este seminario de siete días lectivos de duración 

se plantea como objetivo fundamental poner en valor la literatura hispánica como herramienta 

privilegiada para la introducción del horizonte cultural en el aprendizaje del español como lengua 

extranjera. En muchos casos, el aprendizaje de la segunda lengua se lleva a cabo desde una 

perspectiva exclusivamente lingüística, relegando la competencia cultural, que todo aprendiz debe 

desarrollar si de verdad quiere ser proficiente en la lengua que estudia, a un papel muy secundario. 

Este seminario defenderá precisamente las cualidades de la literatura hispánica para abordar el 

aprendizaje del español desde un punto de vista integral: no solo como vehículo de desarrollo de los 

aspectos más formales del idioma, sino también como herramienta de acercamiento cultural a la 

realidad meta. El seminario se dividirá en tres bloques: Bloque 1: dará cuenta de los debates más 

significativos en torno al uso de la literatura en el aprendizaje de la L2 a fin de que los participantes 

puedan encuadrar en las conclusiones que se alcancen su propia experiencia previa como 

aprendientes de una lengua extranjera (1 sesión). Bloque 2: proporcionará los marcos teóricos más 

relevantes que apoyan el uso de la poesía, el relato corto y el teatro en el aula de ELE (2 sesiones). 

Bloque 3: los participantes trabajarán directamente con textos literarios reflexionando, primero, 

sobre qué aspectos de los mismos podrían tener un mayor impacto en su propio aprendizaje de ELE 

tanto lingüística como culturalmente. En segundo lugar, sus conclusiones serán contrastadas con la 

explotación que el profesor haya realizado previamente de esos mismos textos. De este modo, los 

participantes, además de generar consciencia sobre cómo aprenden, recibirán también instrucción 

directa sobre aquellos aspectos que el profesor estime más adecuados (5 sesiones). El uso de las 

TIC se favorecerá sobremanera en el desarrollo de todos los bloques del seminario. 

125

Expected number of participants: 23 (20 foreigners+3 nationals) Activities / Program The main 

goal of this seven-day seminar will be to show that literature is a privileged tool for the introduction 

of the cultural horizon in the learning of Spanish as a Second Language. In many cases, language 

learning focuses on linguistic content and sidelines cultural competence, which is actually 

indispensable for true linguistic competence. This seminar will demonstrate how to use Hispanic 

literature to learn a language from an integral perspective, not only as a vehicle for formal linguistic 

aspects but also as a means of conveying the culture of the target language. The seminar will be 

divided into three blocks. Block 1: The first will cover the most significant debates on the use of 

literature in L2 learning (1 session). Block 2: The second (2 sessions) will furnish the most 

relevant theoretical frameworks for the classroom exploitation of poetry, short stories, and plays. 

Block 3: participants will work with literary texts to reflect, firstly, about which aspects in them 

might have a greater impact on their own learning both from a linguistic and a cultural perspective. 

Secondly, participants' conclusions will be compared with the instructor's exploitation of those 

same texts. In so doing, participants will not only become aware of how they learn, but they will 

also get direct instruction about the linguistic aspects the teacher considers more relevant (5 

sessions). Special emphasis will be placed throughout the seminar in the implementation of ICTs.

son image avec la méthode Val Real©, outil de construction de la confiance en soi et de valorisation 

de l'image. Il invite à la réflexion sur la Confiance en Soi, l'image de la femme du moyen - âge et 

d'aujourd'hui et la représentation du féminin. 

L'atelier favorise l‘expression et l'échange entre les participantes et créée une dynamique de groupe 

qui soutient et encourage chaque participante dans l'étude et la réalisation des objectifs qu'elle s'est 

fixée. 

L'atelier prévoit des mises en situation, des rencontres culturelles avec des personnages de la région 

et des visites d'étude sur des lieux sélectionnés par nos soins, qui ont été marqués par la vie de 

dames emblématiques: visites d'étude de la cité de médiévale de Carcassone (Dame Carcasse), 

Château De Montségur avec la découverte de l'histoire de la Grande Esclarmonde de Foix, 

Toulouse, capitale d'Occitanie et découverte des hauts lieux de culture et d'histoire.

- encourager la rencontre entre les femmes de différentes cultures européennes 

- s'enrichir à travers les échanges entre les femmes 

- lever les freins à la mobilité et à leur réalisation personnelle par un travail sur l'estime de soi, la 

communication, l'image et par la découverte de la culture de ses dames sur leur lieu de vie 

- faire naître ou approfondir le goût de l'apprentissage tout au long de la vie (découvertes de 

l'histoire des cultures européenne, etc.) 

- approfondir ses connaissances et (re-)découvrir sa féminité.

This workshop is based on an interactive method of work alternating theoretical and practical 

exercises with the discovery of the ladies of Occitan. We plan to organize exchange with women of 

the host country who has followed self-confidence training, in order to share confidence's 

peculiarities of each country within the framework of the equality of opportunity. Personal work is 

done by each participant on the establishment of their own confidence and enhancing their image 

with the method Val Real ©, building confidence and self-image enhancement tool. It invites 

consideration on self-confidence, the image of women from the Middle Ages and today and the 

representation of femininity.

that supports and encourages each participant in studying the goals they have set. 

The workshop includes situational, cultural encounters with characters from the region and study 

visits to places chosen by us, which were marked by the life of iconic women: study visits to 

Carcassonne Mediaval City (Dame Carcass), Castle montsegur and discovering the history of the

La mémoire de l'Exil - S'approprier un sujet historique et politique 

par des moyens artistiques 






Des adultes (18 - 80 ans) qui parlent l'une des 2 langues de l'Atelier, soit le français soit l'allemand 

et qui s'intéressent au thème proposé.Les personnes intéressées par le sujet de l'Atelier disposent 

idéalement d'une expérience personnelle marquée par l'exil. A un moment de leur vie, ils ont du 

s'adapter aux règles sociales et culturelles d'un pays d'accueil et ont appris une nouvelle langue. 

Nous allons cibler des adultes qui viennent d'arriver au pays d'accueil (des primo-arrivants) ainsi 

que des adultes issus de l'immigration. Même si ces groupes d'adultes auront la priorité pour 

participer à l'Atelier, nous accepterons également des adultes sans expérience spécifique d'exil mais 

qui s'intéressent à la problématique et aux enjeux sociaux des identités multiples et multiculturelles. 

Nous apprécierons chez ces candidats l'aspiration à une citoyenneté européenne active et solidaire. 

Die Zielgruppe des Workshops sind Erwachsene zwischen 18 und 80 Jahren, die eine der beiden 

Werkstattsprachen - deutsch/französisch - beherrschen und die sich für das Thema interessieren. 

Idealerweise verfügen die KandidatInnen über persönliche Exil-Erfahrungen bzw. gehören zu der 

Gruppe von Menschen, die sich in ihrem Leben an die neuen sozialen und kulturellen Regeln eines 

Aufnahmelandes anpassen und eine neue Sprache lernen mussten. Zur Zielgruppe gehören ebenso 

Asylsuchende, Spätaussiedler als auch Menschen mit einem sogenannten 'Migrationshintergrund'. 

Kandidaten aus dieser Zielgruppe haben zwar Vorrang, aber wir werden ebenso sorgfältig Anträge 

von KandidatInnen prüfen, die keine eigene Exilerfahrung haben, aber die sich für das Thema und 

die damit verbundene Problematik der multiplen Identitätsbildung und dem Wert multikultureller 

Lebenszusammenhänge interessieren. 


Le programme de l'Atelier s'étalera sur 6 jours. Il y aura deux axes principaux à mettre en oeuvre; 

d'une part la transmission de connaissances approfondies sur l'histoire de l'Exil à Marseille et en 

région PACA qui se réalisera sous forme de conférences, d'explorations urbaines, de visites et de 

tables rondes. D'autre part, différentes pratiques créatives seront proposées aux apprenants, comme 

l'écriture sous contrainte, la photographie comme outil d'exploration urbaine et la création de cartes 

imaginaires en collages. Avant, durant et après l'Atelier, le principal moyen d'information, de 

communication et de publication sera un blog créé par Passage et Co… Il sera enrichi ensuite par 

les témoignages et les créations des apprenants. La formation à l'utilisation de ce blog et des médias 

sociaux sur internet sera le troisième axe de l'Atelier. 

144

Das Workshop-Programm dauert 6 Tage. Es besteht aus 2 Hauptteilen. Zum einen wird es in 

Vorträgen, bei Stadtrundgängen und Diskussionsrunden um die Vermittlung von grundlegenden 

und vertieften Kenntnissen über die Geschichte des Exils in Marseille und der Provence gehen. Der 

zweite Teil betrifft unterschiedlichste Kreativ-Workshops, in denen sich die 

SeminarteilnehmerInnen auf eigene Art mit dem Exil-Thema auseinandersetzen. Unter Anleitung 

von gestandenen KünstlerInnen und ErwachsenenbildnerInnen haben die 

WorkshopteilnehmerInnen Gelegenheit, sich mit experimentellem Schreiben (nach dem Prinzip der 

'Contrainte'), mit fotografischer Stadtrecherche und dem Herstellen imaginärer Stadtkarten 

(Collage-Prinzip) vertraut zu machen. Vor, während und nach dem Workshop wird als prinzipielle 

Informations- und Austauschplattform ein Blog eingesetzt, der von Passage et Co. entwickelt und 

anschliessend den WorkshopteilnehmerInnen zur Verfügung gestellt wird, um Diskussions- und 

kreative Beiträge zu posten. Der Einsatz des Blogs wird mit einer Einführung in «Social Media» 

verbunden und dient dazu, sich mit den vielfältigen Kommunikations- und 

Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten, die heute die sozialen Netzwerke im Internet bieten, vertraut zu machen.

La Marionnette au service des hommes 






Personnes intéressées (non marionnettistes professionnels) personnellement et/ou dans le cadre de 

leur activité professionnelle par la pratique de la Marionnette. Elles sont confrontées à des publics 

exclus et/ou en difficultés (handicaps, prison, exclusion sociale…) dans le cadre de leur cellule 

familiale ou de leur pratique professionnelle et veulent découvrir comment notre pratique artistique 

participe à apaiser les conflits. En apprenant à construire, manipuler une marionnette, interpréter un 

personnage elles veulent se doter de nouveaux outils, retrouver les chemins de l'échange, réduire les 

différences et/ou difficultés. 

People interested (not professional puppeteers), personnaly and / or in the field of their professional 

activity, by object manipulation and puppetry.They are working with people in social 

exclusion(jail,handicap, unemployment) or dealing with these kind of situations in their family or 

neighbourhood. They would be interested in knowing how an artistic process can become a tool to 

pacify people and overcome conficts.By learning how to create,manipulate and play a character, 

they will discover new tools, new way to communicate and way to decrease differences/difficuties 

of langage. 


Découvrir une technique artistique et marionnettique (construction manipulation et interprétation de 

personnage) qui, dépassant les différences, les transcendent. De la construction de sa marionnette à 

la découverte des techniques de manipulation, jusqu'à la présentation finale du travail réalisé 

l'apprenant découvrira les outils techniques et artistiques que nous utilisons et leur capacité à 

faciliter les échanges avec l'autre. En nous appuyant sur les expériences que nous menons auprès de 

publics en situation d'exclusion (Prison, Handicap, Publics défavorisés) nous amènerons les 

apprenants à découvrir comment la pratique artistique peut être mise au service d'un projet sensible 

à destination de publics particuliers et peut devenir un outil privilégié de dialogue. • MODULE / 

CONSTRUIRE (imaginer) La marionnette est un objet intermédiaire vers lequel se déplace le 

regard. Les participants découvriront dans ce module comment aborder la construction d'un objet 

personnel . A partir d'une base technique imposée (sculpture en volume), chaque participant 

construira le personnage qui deviendra objet et acteur du dialogue. En accompagnant les 

participants nous leur ferons dépasser les difficultés inhérentes à la sculpture en volume. De la 

sculpture à l'habillage chacun des participants construira une marionnette à gaine qui devenant son 

reflet et sa parole l'accompagnera lors de son retour en son milieu. • MODULE / MANIPULER 

(prendre de la distance) L'objet construit n'est rien sans le manipulateur. Chaque objet a sa 

respiration, son rythme, sa rapidité, son langage. A partir de l'objet construit, les participants seront 

amenés à découvrir les fondements de la manipulation. Ils chercheront dans leur approche à 

transférer à leur personnage le souffle de vie qui anime. Dans ce module, lentement nous 

148

chercherons à faire paraître un « double marionnette », objet ami de l'apprenant. Dans le cadre de ce 

module, nous amènerons les apprenants à découvrir comment l'objet transporte les émotions et 

volontés du manipulateur. Entre technique et sensibilité l'objet colporte une humanité à échelle 

réduite, celle que le manipulateur décide de donner à son objet. • Module / Interpréter (reformuler) 

ou La parole de la moarionnette es –elle plus fiable que celle de l'homme ? Dans ce troisième temps 

nous chercherons comme dans « le deuxième souffle sportif » à amener le manipulant à s'oublier 

derrière l'objet ; nous chercherons à pousser les apprenants à dépasser leur langue et à trouver dans 

celle de l'objet une parole plus universelle ; qu'elle soit parlée ou pas. Chaque marionnette 

construite aura un caractère, une couleur, une interprétation. Dans ce module et avant de le 

confronter au regard et à l'oreille du public feront apparaître leur double (ami/ennemi) et les 

questions qu'il portera. Pleine d'humanité ou véritable cauchemar la marionnette deviendra, 

poétique ou matéraliste, la petite de voix de « l'autre en soi ». • Clôture en RE(s) TITUTION(s). De 

ces modules, sortiront des RE(s)TITUTION(s) qui seront présentés au public. Ce temps de 

RE(s)TITUTION(s) permettra de valoriser le travail accompli par chacun et donnera à comprendre 

comment la marionnette « agit ». 

From construction of its own puppet and discovery of manipulation techniques, until the final 

showing, the learner will discover our aristic and technical process. We will show the way we use 

them as communication tools. Using our experience with people in great social difficulties (jail, 

handicap...) will lead the learners to understand how an artistic process can be put to service a 

sensible project targetting particular publics. UNIT Build / Imagin. A puppet is an halfway object 

on which the look mooves along. Participants will discover how to manage the construction of a 

personal object. Using our technical knowledge in sculpture, every participant will create the 

character that will become object and actor of the dialog. We'll help the participants to overcome 

the difficulties that they could meet with sculpture. From sculpting to clothing, each participant will 

create an hand gloved puppet. This object will become their reflect and word and will be a 

companion for coming back in their area. UNIT manipulate - Take distanc. A puppet is nothing 

without his puppet master. Each object has its own breathing, rythm,speed,langage.From the 

construct object, the participants will be led to discover the roots of object manipulation. They will 

be in search of insuflate a breath of life. In this unit, slowly we'll search to make appear the "dual 

puppet" friend object of the learner. We will lead people to see how an object can become the 

vehicle of emotions and wills of the puppeter. Between technicity and sensibility, the object brings 

a rduced humanity, tghe one the manipulator decides to give. UNIT - Play /Rephrase or Is the 

puppet talk weaker than the man's one? At this third stage we will ask the manipulator to forget 

himself behind the object. We will search to push the participant to pass over his own langage in 

order to find in the object's one in a more universal langage (talked or not). Each puppet will have a 

character, a color, a behavior. In this unit, before confronting the work to the look and ear of the 

public they willmake appear their double ( friend/enemy) and the questinonning it will bring with 

him .Full of humanity or real nightmare the puppetwill become poetic or materialistic, the tiny little 

voice of the other one. End - Re - Turns From these units will go out Re - Turns and they will be 

presented to the public. This Re-Turns period will allow to valorise the accomplished work by each 

one of the participants and will make the puppet acting understandable.

Environment / Sustainable development 



Personnes qui ont de l'intérêt pour l'éducation non-formelle ou qui ont déjà eu une expérience en 

tant que bénévoles ou volontaires dans le domaine de l'éducation non-formelle. Ils devront avoir de 

l'intérêt pour traiter des questions liés à l'environnment et des différentes activitiés de pleine nature 

possibles, hors activités nécessitant l'intervention de professionnels. 

People interested in non-formal education or who have experience as volunteers in the field of nonformal

various mediations possible, outside activities requiring professional intervention. 


Il existe dans différents pays d'Europe des aires d'activtiés polyvalentes et créatives en zone 

naturelle dans laquelle les participants peuvent faire l'exercice de l'apprentissage social par 

l'activité. Il s'agit dans cet atelier de se former à différentes médiations possibles dans ces espaces et 

de réfléchir à l'intérêt de ceux-ci dans l'éducation pour adulte. L'éducation nouvelle s'appuie sur 

l'appropriation du milieu quel qu'il soit, rural ou urbain comme un axe essentiel de l'éducation et du 

developpent de l'individu. Les activités proposées permettront aux participants de se former à 

dfférents types d'aménagement extérieurs (tels que la construction de cabanes, les parcours dans les 

arbres, l'aménagement des espaces de la vie quotidienne et la construction de tables à feu et objets 

de cuisson en terre), mais aussi aux pratiques physiques permettant l'appropriation et la découverte 

du milieu (randonnée avec différents supports, escalade) et en dehors de la nécessité d'interventions 

d'un professionel. Les trois types d'activités de cet atelier seront: les temps de pratique, les temps 

d'échange sur le sens éducatif et pédagogique de ces activités et les temps consacrés à la réalisation 

d'un document de synthèse sur les activités réalisées et leurs intérêts pédagogiques dans l'éducation 

non-formelle. Ce troisième temps devra être l'occasion pour les participants de formaliser leurs 

apprentissages. 

There are in Europe areas of creative activties in natural area in which participants can make the 

exercise of social learning through activity. In this workshop we will discover different kind of 

activities in these spaces and consider the value of these in education for adults. The new education 

is based on the relationship between human and and his environment as a crucial factor in education 

and development of the individual being. The proposed activities will enable participants to train for 

dfférents types of activities (such as the construction of huts, course in the trees, the space planning 

of daily life and the construction of tables and fire, cooking earth objects), but also practices 

physical ownership and enabling the discovery of environment (with different media hiking, 

climbing) and outside the need for a professional response.The three types of activities in this 

workshop will be: the practice time, the exchange time on the educational meaning of these 

150

activities and time devoted to the realization of a paper on the activitiesperformed and their 

educational interests in non-formal education. This third time will be an opportunityfor participants 

to formalize their learning.

porter un projet d'échange interculturel. Les jeunes seront sélectionnés et associés à travers le 

programme Ville Vie Vacances Solidarité internationale (VVVSI) du Ministère des Affaires 

Etrangères et Européennes. Le programme Ville Vie Vacances Solidarité internationale vise à 

permettre l'échange entre jeunes du Nord issus des «quartiers sensibles», et jeunes du Sud. 

L'échange interculturel et la recherche du bien commun sont des vecteurs essentiels d'apprentissage 

de la citoyenneté et d'insertion, voire de réinsertion sociale pour les publics les plus 

marginalisés.Ces jeunes seront associés au projet d'atelier lors d'une journée de restitution et 

d'échange autour de l'éducation interculturelle. 

Young adults (core target: youth from 18 to 35) interested in international cooperation and 

development issues. This workshop is not intended for professionals in the development education 

field. We will take a close look at the applications of non-EU citizens who work or study in the EU. 

Etudiants et Développement will pay a particular attention that the workshop associates an equal 

number of male and female participants. Secondary target-group: youth with less opportunities and 

socio-economical difficulties having their first experience of a voluntary work at an international 

sacle. They will be selected and associated to the project thanks to their participation in the program 

Ville Vie Vacances Solidarité Internationale leaded by the French ministry of Foreign Affairs. This 

program aims at developing the international voluntary work of youth with few opportunities. The 

young people will be associated to the workshop by being part of the intercultural activity created 

by the European participants. 


'L'atelier vise à développer la créativité, les savoirs et les compétences communicationnelles de 

jeunes européens en matière d'éducation interculturelle et de citoyenneté active, dans un échange de 

pair à pair. L'atelier est conçu comme un cadre créatif et motivant d'apprentissage entre 

participants, intervenants et organisateurs. Les participants apprendront à exprimer etmettre en 

scène des situations interculturelles à travers différentes techniques telles que la vidéo, le théâtre, le 

jeu etc. Les créations issues de l'atelier auront toutes pour objectif d'interpeller des jeunes 

intéressés par la solidarité internationale sur l'importance de l'éducation interculturelle dans les 

152

échanges Nord-Sud. Les jeunes du programme VVVSI, issus de quartiers sensibles en France, 

seront associés à l'atelier lors d'une journée de restitution et d'échange autour des créations. Les 

participants seront accompagnés dans leurs créations par une équipe professionnelle d'artistes d'une 

part et d'animateurs en éducation au développement d'autre part. Les supports créatifs feront une 

large place au TIC (utilisation de la vidéo notamment) et aux pratiques innovantes dans le domaine 

de l'éducation des adultes (utilisation de techniques de théâtre forum, de jeux de rôles etc.). 

One of the workshop's goals is to increase the learners ability to initiate, organise and deliver a 

collective awareness raising activity on intercultural education and active citizenship. The 

workshop will follow a methodology developed in our last Grundtvig workshop (Wiki Week for 

Development) in which the learners and staff together come up with an idea for an action (or 

actions) in awareness raising, and then carry out a programme of activities to make the idea a 

reality. The additional step in this workshop is to discover and use ITC, especially video, and to 

focus on theatre and other communicative tools to break ignorance and indifference among youth 

about intercultural dialogue. The workshop will offer a creative learning framework that delivers 

practical outcomes, embeds the learning from these outcomes through reflection and validates the 

learning process. Our learners will improve their competencies in communication and the creative 

use of ICT, especially video. The wokshop is based on a peer-to-peer approach, using the high 

level of knowledge, skills and experience in the partner organisations, and the learners. Our learners 

will create 3 tools that can alert young people on North-south situations of misunderstanding with 

people from other cultures and mechanisms that can settle a successful communication in North- 

South relations. Youth with less opportunities having its first experience of a voluntary work at an 

international scale, will be associated to the workshop by being part of the intercultural activity 

created by the European participants.

ETHNOFONIK - about pedagogy for traditional music transmission 



Artistic education, including Arts and Craft and Music 



Adultes, musiciens amateurs ou étudiants en musique, n'étant pas musicien professionnel. Nous 

cherchons à avoir une importante diversité de nationalités et des musiciens pratiquant les musiques 

traditionnelles de leur pays. Notre attention portera sur la sélection d'un groupe de nationalités 

variées, d'une dimension intergénérationnelle, d'une égalité des genres et de participants en situation 

de précarité socioéconomique. 

Adults, amateur musicians or music students, who are not professional musicians. We try to have a 

broad diversity of nationalities and musicians who are practicing the traditional musics of their 

countries. The selection will be focused on having a group of various nationalities, of an 

intergenerational dimension, with gender balance and participants who are in a precarious 

socioeconomical situation. 


L'activité principale de l'atelier est le travail sur la pédagogie de transmission du patrimoine musical 

traditionnel des participants par eux même et par voie orale, ainsi que la pédagogie de 

l'accompagnement artistique de ce type de transmission. Les participants seront donc tour à tour 

élèves, enseignants et responsables artistiques pendant les activités. Les activités principales de 

l'atelier seront: - Ateliers pratiques de transmission des morceaux apportés par les participants. - 

Ateliers pratiques d'arrangement des ces morceaux pour l'orchestre créé par les participants. - 

Travail scénique des résultat des ces ateliers. - Représentations publiques des résultats de l'Atelier, 

avec enregistrements sonores et visuels; - Masterclass sur les musiques traditionnelles pour des 

musiciens français, animées par les participants. En plus de ces activités précises, nous introduirons 

des discussions informelles sur le statut social des musiciens traditionnels dans les différents pays 

(reconnaissance, débouchés professionnels...), sur la définition des musiques traditionnelles (sur les 

spécificités de chacune et leurs métissages via l'influence européenne), ainsi que des soirées de 

danses traditionnelles et jams sessions. 

The main activity of the Workshop is about the pedagogy of the transmission of traditional musical 

heritage of the participants by themselves and orally, and also pedagogy for supporting others in 

this type of transmission. So participants will be by turns learning, teaching and in charge of the 

artistic development from one activity to the other. Workshop program will include: - Practical 

songs transmission workshops held by the participants. - Practical arrangement of these songs 

workshops for the orchestra created by the participants. - Stage performance workshop to prepare 

the public performances. - Public performances, with sound and video recordings. - Masterclass 

about traditional music for french musicians, held by the participants. We will also introduce 

154

informal discussions concerning the social status of traditional musicians in their own different 

countries (recognition, professional opportunities ...), the definition of traditional music (their 

specificities, hybidisations by european influences) and also some traditional dances and jam 

sessions evenings

Speak Up! Le web participatif au service de la citoyenneté européenne 






Tous les individus à la recherche d'une nouvelle façon de faire entendre leur voix citoyenne, à tous 

ceux qui s'intéressent aux médias citoyens, aux nouveaux aspects de la démocratie participative et 

de la citoyenneté active. L'atelier s'adresse également aux adultes engagés bénévolement dans des 

projets de médias citoyens, y compris les bloggeurs individuels et les bénévoles de projets 

collectifs. 

Individuals interested in the concept of participatory media and are looking for new forms of 

written expression outside the norms of professional journalism. The workshop is designed for 

active bloggers and those participating in and volunteering with projects of civil society. 


Mouvement des indignés, manifestations, dans le contexte de la crise actuelle, nombreux sont les 

citoyens à la recherche de nouveaux modes d'expression. Faire entendre cette voix citoyenne 

alternative est essentiel, la démocratie a besoin de se rapprocher de ses citoyens. Les réseaux 

sociaux se développent et ont été au cours des révolutions arabes un outil décisif d'expression 

citoyenne. Blogging, micro blogging, médias participatifs, ces nouvelles formes d'expression sont 

avant tout le signe du développement de l'écriture et du journalisme amateur. En permettant 

l'expression des citoyens sur les questions de société, les médias participatifs offrent à chacun 

l'opportunité de partager ses opinions, ses analyses, ses compétences. L'individu devient lui-même 

émetteur de média et les possibilités d'apprentissage par ces nouvelles technologies sont infinies. 

Cet atelier aura comme objectif de permettre aux participants de réfléchir ensemble à ces nouveaux 

modes d'expression citoyenne en Europe. Ils seront amenés à se demander comment utiliser et 

valoriser les médias participatifs. Grâce au partage d'expérience et au contexte européen, la richesse 

d'une ouverture à l'Europe sera mise en évidence. Ils découvriront les clés pratiques d'un exercice de 

la citoyenneté au moyen des médias participatifs. Nous souhaitons que cet atelier favorise 

l'engagement citoyen et leur apporte une dimension européenne. Activités: Ateliers interculturels et 

interactifs, media battle, témoignages d'invités, ateliers d'écriture, mises en pratiques des TIC, 

Programme: J-1: Arrivée dans l'après-midi et dîner ensemble, icebreaker J1: Présentation des 

participants et présentation de l'atelier. Présentation des médias citoyens en Europe. Échange 

d'expérience puis débat sur l'Europe, la place du politique et des citoyens dans la société: réflexions 

interculturelles sur l'importance d'une nouvelle voix citoyenne J2: Session sur le montage de projets 

citoyens, témoignages de créateurs de projets et de bénévoles, échange d'expérience des participants 

et questions aux «témoins». Debriefing des participants puis rédaction de mini-projets personnels 

J3: Session sur l'écriture journalistique, la spécificité de l'écriture web et les reportages citoyens sur 

le terrain. Ateliers d'écriture et de reportages en petits groupes J4: Session sur les réseaux sociaux et 

156

leur fonctionnement. Réflexion sur leur rôle dans la démocratie active, question de la diffusion puis 

mise en pratique en petits groupes J5: Media battle: chaque groupe se voit attribuer un sujet et doit 

proposer et construire un projet. Puis les projets sont présentés devant le reste des 

participants.Sélection du meilleur projet. Evaluation du séminaire, networking puis départ. 

During the last months, protests and grassroots movements for change have multiplied. Citizens are 

looking for new ways of political and social expression. It is now absolutely necessary to make this 

alternative citizen voice sound and be heard. Media expression and social networks have played a 

crucial role in promoting the idea of freedom and democracy throughout the Arab revolutions. 

Blogging, micro blogging and participatory media offer new forms of written expression and enable 

the development of amateur journalism. In allowing all citizens to express theirselves on society, 

economy or political topics in a constructive way, participatory media provide everyone with the 

opportunity to share experiences, analysis and skills. Citizens are becoming media producers and 

informal learning opportunities through these participatory media are unlimited. The Grundtvig 

workshop will focus on the above topics and offer participants the possibility to improve their 

knowledge of participatory media, share experience and practice written citizen expression together. 

We want to question the role of citizen media in building active citizenship in a European context. 

Activities: Intercultural and interactive workshops, media battle, on the ground reports, writing 

practices, new technologies and social networks practices... Programme: Day 1: Arrival in the 

afternoon, icebreaker, dinner together Day 2: Participants introduce themselves, and the Grundtvig 

workshop is presented. Citizens' and participatory media in Europe are mapped and described. 

Experiences can be shared before a debate on active citizenship and politics, Europe and citizen 

expression Day 3: Workshop on European citizens projects building, accounts by invited 

witnesses, debriefing and writing of personal mini-projects Day 4: Workshop on citizen writing 

for the web, on the ground' reporting, amateur journalism. Writing practices in groups and 

individually. Day 5: Workshop on social media usage. Brainstorming role in active citizenship. 

Online practice in small groups. Day 6: Media battle: each group will be given one specific subject 

and must prepare an innovative media project.Presentation of the projects. Best project will be 

nominated. Workshop's evaluation. Networking. Departure.

Art et démocratie : l'auto-édition. 






Adultes de tous âges désireux de pouvoir s'exprimer publiquement par des moyens simples, en tant 

que citoyen européen et éventuellement en tant qu'artistes. Nous aimerions accueillir notamment 

des personnes qui n'ont jamais participé à un programme européen, n'ont jamais voyagé ou/et qui 

ont peu l'occasion de bénéficier de formations artistiques. Les apprenants devront avoir envie 

d'exprimer leur créativité ou leur sensibilté artistique et de participer à l'échange et au dialogue avec 

les habitants d'autres pays de l'Europe. Nous souhaiterions un groupe mélangé, composé de jeunes 

citoyens, d'artistes amateurs, de retraités, de jeunes artistes... 

Adults learners belonging to all ages categories and willing to discover easy artistical home made 

editions technics. By this mean we would invite them to express themselves as european citizens, 

use their creativity and artistical sense. No need to be an artist to be part of the workshop, beginners 

are the most welcome. Priority will be given to people who have never been involved in a european 

programme, have never traveled in Europe or/and had no occasion to receive artistical education but 

who are interested to share and open dialogue with others citizens from Europe. We would like to 

build a mixed group with young citizens, art lovers, senior citizens, young artists... 


L'objectif du projet est de transmettre des techniques simples d'auto-édition permettant de 

contribuer à la société et notamment à la démocratie en Europe. Les participants rencontreront tout 

d'abord plusieurs figures françaises de l'auto-édition qui leur feront découvrir les multiples 

possibilités d'expression qui existent dans ce domaine et les réseaux européens. Les participants 

seront ensuite initiés en demi-groupe à la sérigraphie et à l'édition par les logiciels libres et 

l'impression ou la photocopie et produiront chacun au moins un objet sérigraphié avec des moyens 

simples qu'ils pourront retrouver dans leur propre pays pour un coût minime. Ils auront aussi 

l'occasion de visiter un atelier de sérigraphie à Marseille (Capitale Européenne en pour la Culture en 

2013). En fin d'atelier, ils seront amenés à présenter leurs productions au public du théâtre géré par 

l'association qui propose l'atelier. Enfin, un blog constitué pendant l'expérience permettra de 

prolonger celle-ci et de suivre les travaux réalisés ultérieurement par chacun. 

The aim of the project is to pass down easy homemade edition technics that will allow all learners 

to bring their active contribution to the society and mostly to the european democracy thanks to this 

mean of expression. During the workshop, learners will meet several french auto-edition 

professionals. Those will show various possibilities of expressions existing in this field of edition as 

well as a global view of the artistical european networks existing. Learners will then be initiated in 

159

small groups to the silk screen printing and to home made editions: free softwares, printing and 

photocopying will be the main technics to be taught.

C'est bon de rire de nous! 

Subject area: Artistic education, including also Arts and Crafts and Music 




Personnes sourdes et entendantes (non sourdes). Les personnes sourdes 70% des Sourds de 

naissance sont illettrés et leur accès à la culture est difficile. Pourquoi la mixité? Les Sourds ont 

tendance à rester isolés, se marginaliser. Les vraies rencontres entre Sourds et Entendants sont rares 

à cause des difficultés de communication. Permettre à ces deux populations de mieux se connaître 

est un des objectifs de Signes. Comment? Le choix d'une discipline ne faisant pas appel à l'oralité 

place les apprenants, sourds et entendants dans une situation où ils seront amenés à mobiliser les 

mêmes ressources. Quelles proportions? Sourds et entendants seront représentés dans les mêmes 

proportions. 

Deaf and hearing (not deaf) persons Deaf persons 70% of people born deaf are illiterate and it is 

particularly difficult for them to access culture. Why this mix? Hearing-impaired people tend to 

remain isolated, to be marginalized. Real encounters between deaf and hearing people are rare 

because of the difficulties in communication. One of the objectives of Signes is to enable these two 

populations to get to know each other better. How? Choosing a discipline that does not involve oral 

communication puts the participants, Hearing-impaired and Hearing alike, in a situation where they 

will be obliged to employ the same resources. What proportions of deaf and hearing? Deaf and 

hearing people will be represented in equal proportions. 


La proposition est de travailler "son clown". Travailler son clown, c'est mettre en jeu ses émotions, 

ses fragilités et ses dimensions cachées en donnant la vie à un personnage sensible, naïf, imaginatif, 

en relation directe et complice avec ceux qui le regardent. C'est aussi cultiver sa présence, son 

écoute, son potentiel de jeu, de communication et de création, son acceptation de soi et de l'autre, 

son sens de l'humour et de la dérision. Ce travail donne lieu à un jeu d'acteur fondé sur 

l'improvisation en contact avec l'instant présent, le concret, l'imaginaire, le partenaire et le public. 

La démarche alterne jeux collectifs, improvisation sur scène, et temps de parole permettant de 

repérer à la fois ce qui se passe en soi, les personnages apparus et leurs rapports ainsi que les 

registres du jeu de clown. 

The proposal is to work on “one's own clown”. Working on your clown involves bringing into play 

your emotions, your fragilities, and your hidden sides, bringing to life a character who is sensitive, 

naïve, imaginative, in a direct relationship of complicity with those watching. It also involves 

cultivating your presence, your listening skills, your potential for play, communication, and 

creation, your acceptance of yourself and others, your sense of humour and of mockery. This work 

leads to an actor's performance based on improvisation that is in touch with the present moment, the 

concrete and the imaginary, the partner and the audience. The process alternates collective games 

163

and improvisation on stage with discussion time, allowing participants to identify at one and the 

same time what is happening within themselves, the characters that have appeared and their 

relationships, and the registers of the clown's performance.

G(ART)bage power ! Ateliers de réemploi créatif de déchets pour des 

citoyens éco-responsables 



Artistic education, also including Arts and Craft and Music 



Adultes provenant prioritairement de milieux défavorisés, notamment ayant quitté le système 

éducatif avec peu de qualifications - Séniors - Plus largement, tout citoyen motivé pour développer 

des initiatives éco-responsables dans sa vie personnelle. 

People from vulnerable social groups and marginal social contexts, who have left education without 

basic qualifications. Older people. Citizens who are motivated to develop, in their personal or 

professional life, initiatives of waste reduction and re-use of waste material (notably upcycling). 


La consommation de biens manufacturés par les ménages en Europe a en moyenne doublé en 30 ans 

et la production de déchets ménagers a été multipliée par 3. Malgré des efforts, la quantité de 

déchets municipaux augmente encore chaque année. Elle reflète les habitudes de consommation et 

de production non durables des Européens. Lorsqu'on saitquela production d'une tonne de déchets 

municipaux équivaut à la consommation en amont de 100 tonnes de ressources,le Réemploi, la 

Réutilisation, le Recyclage, le compostage deviennent des enjeux primordiaux, qui nécessitent la 

transition d'une économie «linéaire», vers une économie «circulaire». A l'image de l'écosystème, on 

doit tendre ainsi vers l'abolition du déchet « définitif», tous les déchets devant un jour redevenir des 

produitsqui reviennent à l'infini dans le circuit économique. La prévention et le réemploi sont donc 

des mesures prioritaires dans la gestion des déchets en Europe. Et elles reposent pour beaucoup sur 

la sensibilisation et la formation des citoyens de l'UE, pour leur transmettre des idées, outils et 

méthodologies concrets, facilement accessibles, leur donnant les moyens d'agir au quotidien et de 

transmettre à leur tour, de nouveaux comportements éco-responsables. C'est ce que propose la 

ressourcerie marseillaise Tri Logik, durant ces 6 jours d'ateliers thématiques Grundtvig 

'G(ART)bage power', ateliers de réemploi créatif de déchets pour des citoyens éco-responsables. Au 

programme: - Atelier de sensibilisation sur les principales problématiques actuelles de gestion des 

déchets en Europe et plus particulièrement en matière de réduction et de réemploi des déchets et 

tour d'horizon en Europe, des initiatives inspirantes dans ce domaine. - Introduction d'outils et 

méthodologies en pensée créative. Largement applicables dans la vie personnelle et professionnelle 

de chacun, ces outils nous aiderons, les jours suivants, à générer de nouvelles idées de réemploi 

créatif de déchets. - 'Les glaneurs', balade urbaine pour découvrir des quartiers de Marseille, 

(capitale culturelle européenne en 2013!) de manière créative et éco-responsable - Ateliers de 

création d'accessoires et objets de décoration à partir de tissus récupérés, de bâches publicitaires, 

d'objets glanés dans les rues de Marseille et construction de mobilier en carton. - Plans d'actions 

165

éalisés par les participants pour se donner les moyens d'agir localement, sur leur territoire de 

résidence. 

European private consumption of manufactured goods has been doubling during the last 30 years 

while production of waste has been trebling. Despite some efforts, the quantity of local waste is still 

increasing each year. It reflects non sustainable European comsuption and production habits. When 

we know that 1 ton of waste is equivalent to 100 tons of consumed resources before, reuse, 

recycling and composting appear as fundamental challenges. It is necessary to operate a transition 

from a linear economy to a circular one. As the ecosystem, we have to tend to do away with 

'definitive' waste. Waste could be considered, one day, as a potential products that come back 

endlessly in the economic process. Preventive action and reuse are thus priority measures in the 

European waste management. These measures can be successfull if we raise awareness and if we 

train European citizens so they can appropriate ideas, easily accessible concrete tools and 

methodologiesto apply them in their daily life. And so they can disseminate themselves new ecofriendly 

habits. It is what it is offered by the Non Profit Organization Tri Logik in Marseilles, 

during these 6 day learner Grundtvig workshops entitled 'G(ART)bage power', upcycling 

workshops for eco-friendly citizens. Program: - Raising awareness workshop on the main waste 

management current issues in Europe and sharing inspiring initiatives in that field in EU. - 

Introduction to creative thinking tools. Widely applicable in our private and professional life, these 

tools will help us to generate new ideas in upcycling during the following days. - 'The gleaners', a 

urban walk to discover some areas of Marseilles (European cultural capital in 2013!) in a ecofriendly 

and creative way. - Workshops to create accessories and decoration objects with waste 

textiles, advertising banners, other gleaned objects and cardboard furniture building. - Action plans 

elaborated by the participants to apply these new ideas and techniques in their local area.

Career guidance and counselling 



Personnes en marge du marché du travail ou rencontrant des difficultés particulières d'accès à 

l'emploi soit à l'entrée (jeunes adultes) soit à la sortie (seniors) - Bénéficiaires des minima sociaux 

(RSA, ASS, AAH pour la France et équivalent dans les autres pays européens si dispositifs existant) 

- Travailleurs handicapés - Jeunes demandeurs d'emploi de moins de 26 ans - Personnes sur le 

marché du travail, au chômage - Personnes sortant de prison et en réinsertion - Personnes habitant 

en 'zone urbaine sensible' (ou équivalent dans un autre pays européen) - Seniors de plus de 50 ans 

ou personnes en fin de carrière et qui redoutent le passage à la retraite - Jeunes retraités. Nous 

veillerons à avoir une grande amplitude en matière d'âge afin d'ajouter la dimension 

intergénérationnelle à la dimension interculturelle du projet. Nous veillerons également à respecter 

une grande diversité sociale et si possible un équilibre hommes/femmes. En effet, les femmes 

rencontrent plus de difficultés pour trouver un emploi et/ou suivre une formation professionnelle car 

les modes de garde des enfants ne sont pas toujours adaptés aux horaires de travail ni aux problèmes 

d'organisation des familles monoparentales. Les apprenants sont des personnes ayant moins 

d'opportunités, notamment dans l'accès à la mobilité européenne. 

People at the edge of the labour market: - young people under 26 - ex-offenders - people with 

disabilities - unemployed people - seniors (over 50 years old) - retired people The learners will be 

beneficiaries or volunteers of social and community centers or training centres from different 

European countries and with fewer opportunities, especially lack of access to European mobility. 

We will try to have different ages represented in order to add an intergenerational dimension to this 

interculturel project. 


Le bricolage développe l'ingéniosité, la persévérance mais aussi l'estime de soi et la solidarité, bref 

c'est une bonne école de la vie. L'adresse n'est pas indispensable, elle s'acquière en pratiquant. De 

même, en bricolant, on développe le sens de l'astuce: l'imprévu est la chose la plus prévisible, il faut 

s'adapter.Le bricoleur répare beaucoup et ne jette rien. Il a un rapport distant à la société de 

consommation de masse. La vie ne va pas sans déchirement, sans rapiéçages et ce qui est abîmé en 

nous peut être rendu splendide. Pour cet atelier, il nous a paru intéressant d'utiliser le bricolagerécupération, 

recyclage , recycl'art, Upcycling, Arte Povera, Rehab - (l'art de refaire) pour faire un 

parallèle et porter un regard neuf sur le potentiel de la matière qui fuit notre système de production 

(chutes de production, fin de stock, ratés, prototypes) et les personnes en marge du marché du 

travail. Par le biais de cet atelier, nous voulons réveiller le potentiel créatif et la confiance en soi des 

apprenants grâce à des actvités manuelles où chacun peut se surprendre à travers la création de son 

propre objet. Nous voulons les inviter sur le chemin de la créativité. Le bricolage, recyclage répond 

au besoin de création, re-création car il permet: 

- de passer du temps avec soi, afin de se trouver, se retrouver 

167

- de s'expérimenter 

- d'avoir une recherche identitaire à travers les matières (peinture, sculpture, menuiserie...) 

- de se mettre en difficulté, en ayant à chercher des solutions techniques ou esthétiques 

- de faire travailler son imaginaire 

- de sortir du 'prêt à mâcher et à consommer'. Travailler avec des matériaux de récupération fera 

passer les apprenants par toutes ces étapes, en sollicitant beaucoup leur imagination (et peu d'argent, 

aspect non négligeable en temps de crise). Avec peu, il est possible de: 

- créer avec ce que nous trouvons dans la rue 

- de faire travailler notre imagination 

- d'avoir le plaisir de réaliser un bel objet ou un objet utile, ou les deux à la fois. Les apprenants 

n'ont pas besoin d'avoir de compétences particulières dans ce domaine. Nous sommes tous capables 

de créativité! Le bricolage, recyclage sera utilisé comme fil rouge pendant tout l'atelier pour aborder 

la question des compétences-clés.

Out of the Box: The imagination factory! We will use the techniques 'Do It Yourself' (handicrafts, 

recycl'art, upcycling, rehab) to draw parallels between the materials rejected by the society of mass 

consumption and the people rejected by the labour market because they don't fit the criteria: young 

people, seniors, people with disabilities... The learners will have creativite artistic workshops with 

the organisation 'Libre Objet' and will create design objects out of recuperation materials. With this 

process of 'doing', they will gain more confidence in themselves and will be able to auto-evaluate 

their competences (acquired or developped).

Pratique théâtrale et dialogue interculturel à travers les mythes et 

légendes européennes 


Learning about European Countries 




Toutes personnes adultes, de tout âge, présentant un intérêt pour le spectacle vivant et la pratique 

artistique, souhaitant développer sa créativité et renforcer son potentiel personnel. Personnes 

concernées par les questions de citoyenneté et souhaitant échanger avec d'autres européens à travers 

une expérience collective. 

Adults from all generations, interested in performing arts, looking to develop their creativity and 

wishing to acquire new personal skills. People concerned by the questions of citizenship and 

wishing to share a collective experience with other european citizens. 


L'activité principale de l'atelier est la pratique théâtrale. A travers la thématique des mythes 

européens en partant des différentes origines des participants, des panels de discussion permettent 

de réfléchir et de travailler sur le passé et les pratiques des communautés européennes et de partager 

une expérience commune. Le programme se déroulera en plusieurs temps: 

1. Un temps préparatoire avant l'atelier, pendant lequel les participants, selon leurs différentes 

références culturelles, devront recueillir un matériel de base pour effectuer cette approche 

artistique: une histoire, une anecdote, un conte, une comptine, une berceuse, de la musique, un 

chant, un rituel, une poésie, ou un mythe 

2. La première étape de l'atelier sera de partager et de mettre en commun cette récolte 

d'informations. 

3. Puis les participants s'essayeront à de nombreux exercices variés, individuels et collectifs de 

sensibilisation sur le corps et la voix. La pratique théâtrale permet d'expérimenter en groupe les 

possibilités qu'offrent ces pratiques. 

4. Des moments informels d'échanges après ces périodes de pratique artistique et de sorties 

culturelles permettront d'affiner son regard critique et d'analyser l'intérêt que représentent ces 

pratiques. 

5. Un moment de restitution permettra de créer un moment de représentation en groupe qui générera 

une expérience artistique collective innovante, nourrie des parcours de chacun. 

The main workshop's activity is the theatrical practice. Through the theme of european myths, 

starting from the different origins of the participants, panels of discussions will lead to rethink the 

past and practices of european communities and share a common experience. The programm will 

be divided into several stages: 

171

1. A preparatory work before the workshop, in which the participants, according to their different 

cultural references, diverse backgrounds and heritages, will collect a story, anecdote, ryhme, 

lullaby, song, ritual, myth 

2. The first stage of the workshop will be to share the information gathered. 

3. Then the participants will practice many different awareness exercices with voice and body, 

individually and collectively. The theatrical practice allows to experiment in group the potential 

of these practices. 

4. Informal exchanges and cultural outings after these artistic practices will help to refine its critical 

view. 

5. The last stage will allow the group to put together a piece of work through a collective innovative 

and artistic experience, imbued with each and everyone's story.

L'atelier est destiné à des adultes de tous âges, expérimentés ou débutants, artistes, bénévoles 

associatifs, étudiants, enseignants et animateurs souhaitant élargir et partager leurs savoirs faire 

dans le domaine des arts plastiques, notamment pour la mise en oeuvre de manifestations culturelles 

de plein air (spectacles, concerts, projections, son et lumière): création de décors scénique, Land Art 

et création d'accessoires de costumes. Il s'adresse par ailleurs à des personnes désireuses de 

travailler leurs aptitudes dans le domaine de l'expression orale et corporelle par le biais de la 

pratique du théâtre, à des fins de développement personnel ou pour s'initier à ces méthodes dans le 

but de les utiliser dans leurs projets. Enfin, cet atelier qui aura pour fil conducteur la réalisation 

d'une création collective mêlant arts plastiques et théâtre, s'adresse à des personnes souhaitant vivre 

une aventure de création pluridisciplinaire et plurinationale. 

This workshop is aimed at adults of all ages, experienced people or beginners, artists, volunteers in 

non-profit organizations, students, teachers, youth and social workers who would like to enlarge 

and share their know-how in the field of visual arts (creation of scenic decoration, Land Art and

sound and light shows, concerts, film projections. This workshop is also aimed at people wishing to 

work on their communication skills through the practice of drama (oral and body expression), either 

for their personal development or to use these methods in their projects. Finally, as one of the 

objectives of this workshop will be to set up a collective creation mixing plastic arts and theatre, it 

is aimed at people willing to share an experience of multinational and multi-disciplinary creation 


Cet atelier se déroulera parallèlement avec la 4ème édition de FestiFaï, un festival de chansons et 

d'arts plastiques mise en oeuvre avec le Fourmidiable, scène artistique du pays du Buëch. Les 

créations réalisées avec les participants de l'atelier Grundtvig seront présentées à l'occasion du 

spectacle final de FestiFaï. Par ailleurs, cet évènement culturel sera l'opportunité pour les 

participants de partager pendant une semaine le quotidien des artistes professionnels qui seront en 

résidence au centre d'accueil du Faï. L'atelier mêlera les arts plastiques et le théâtre autour d'un 

thème artistique commun qui servira de fil rouge à l'ensemble des réalisations: 

• Ateliers d'arts plastiques: à partir d'éléments naturels et de récupération (Land Art) les participants 

créeront collectivement une exposition de pleine nature, ils réaliseront par ailleurs les décors 

scéniques et les accessoires de costumes du spectacle final de « FestiFaï » 

• Ateliers d'expression orale et corporelle: les participants exploreront les techniques 

d'improvisation individuelle et collective, l'expression des émotions, l'usage des mots, du langage et 

173

des idées. En filigrane de cet atelier, ils prépareront la présentation de leurs oeuvres réalisées dans 

l'atelier arts plastiques (sculptures corporelles, mime, jeu sur les mots…) et l'accueil théâtralisé du 

public pour la journée finale de FestiFaï.

will be an opportunity for the participants to share the everyday life of the musicians who will be in 

residence for one week at the Faï hosting centre. The workshop will involve plastic arts and drama 

practises with a common artistic theme which will be the “red thread” of all the realizations:

nature, the participants will create a collective exhibition in the open air. They will also make the 

scenic decoration and the accessories of the final event of FestiFaï 

• Self expression through movement and oral expression sessions: the participants will explore 

individual and collective improvisation techniques, the expression of feelings, the use of words, 

languages and ideas. Throughout these sessions, they will prepare the staging of their visual arts

Education in prisons or for social reinsertion of offenders 




The target group for this workshop is ex-offenders who want to make a serious commitment to 

social and environmental action for a better world. In particular: - You may feel deeply that you 

have something to give to the world but are unsure how. - You may have already stepped into 

action and seek nourishment and perhaps a re- appraisal of how you are spending your time and 

where you direct your energy. - You may be embarking on a new life or new direction. If you are 

not an ex-offendor but are desperate to come on this programme or make a connection, you can also 

contact us. 


The key elements of the workshop are: - Shared physical activity: Immerse yourself in practical 

tasks in the gardens, woods and kitchen. - Facilitated group work: Deep conversation, sharing and 

coaching. We learn through voicing our deepest feelings and hearing the experiences of others. - 

Facilitated breath work/therapeutic exercises: A profoundly experiential aspect of the programme, 

fully supported by our trained facilitators and support staff. - Time spent alone outdoors: You will 

be invited to spend time on Embercombe’s land in contemplation and reflection. - Creativity and 

self-expression: Engagement with creative processes and the expressive arts. You will do all this 

whilst living in a green and beautiful place. Embercombe is a fifty acre small-holding one mile from 

the Dartmoor National Park. It is comprised of mature broadleaf woodland, a wildlife lake, southfacing 

meadows, a stone circle, and an organic orchard and garden.

Investigating and Conserving European Baroque Wall Paintings 






We are seeking applications from adult learners with a personal interest in art history and 

conservation. Priority will be given to participants who have not enjoyed the experience of 

international learning, those who have no formal qualifications in the subject, and those who would 

like to become more confident in accessing the visual heritage of their local art galleries and 

heritage sites. Priority will also be given to older applicants and to those from minority ethnic 

groups. Applications from Italy, France, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands are encouraged, 

although learners from other countries will be welcome. For more information about the Old 

Royal Naval College please go to our website: www.ornc.org 


The wonderful baroque buildings of the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich, designed by Sir 

Christopher Wren, were built in the 1690s as a hospital for old and injured seamen. The Painted 

Hall, originally intended as a dining hall, was decorated by English painter Sir James Thornhill in a 

style consistent with other European artists of the age including Rubens, Verrio, Ricci and Orazio 

Gentileschi. It is the largest painted interior of its type in the UK. A major conservation project 

taking place in the Painted Hall will give participants a once-in-a-lifetime chance to observe 

conservators at work and to take part in some hands-on conservation activities. The programme also 

includes visits to other world-famous painted interiors such as the Banqueting House and St Paul's 

Cathedral and talks by experts in baroque art and wall painting. Participants will have opportunities 

to investigate and discuss the international language of art and architecture – the themes and 

symbols used by European artists – and to compare artists and heritage sites from their own areas. 

Learners will stay in historic Greenwich, part of the Maritime Greenwich World Heritage Site.

Digital Dishes 






The workshop will be open to people over 50 who are interested in developing their computer and 

digital media skills through taking part in a collaborative creative process. The theme of the 

workshop is cuisine so will appeal to those who would enjoy making and sharing stories of food. 


Our national cuisine, the food we cook and mealtimes with family and friends are important to us. 

We invite you to share stories of your favorite dishes and dinnertimes. Working with Stand + Stare 

Collective, you will develop basic digital skills and help create a collection of food related stories 

for Theatre Jukebox. Unlike a regular jukebox that plays songs, Theatre Jukebox allows people to

From Grass-Roots to Green Lines 

Subject area: Other 

Volunteering 




The workshop, for those with limited or no previous experience wishing to develop trails that allow 

participants to experience the delights of slow travel will: • Reflect, Create & Plan publicly 

available routes: ‘Green Lines’ • investigate routes and trails in an economically & socially 

deprived area • Share & evaluate group knowledge & workshop activities • Provide learning from 

personal experience and with enthusiastic local trail promoters • Develop appropriate skills, 

programmes and a support network • Use informal & creative activities with structured visits to 

prehistoric forts and castles & relevant tourist facilities • Be based in an area renowned for its 

national and regional long distance walking trails, centred on a uniquely creative rural, Welsh 

Border hill town. 


From Grass-roots to Green Lines; Developing & Celebrating a Life Enhancing Action: A Green 

Line ‘grown’ by community enthusiasm and effort. The workshop is an Action Research 

programme with participants envisaging and planning a multi-functional community (‘grass-roots’) 

trail – A ‘Green Line’. The plan to be capable of realisation (developed and promoted) by 

community based actions (by physical use, leaflets, web sites, celebratory events, community 

gatherings) and presented to appropriate authorities for formal implementation. The Green Line 

development to be used as a dynamic & practical means of encouraging engagement in social, 

community, environmental, well-being, celebratory & economic action amongst disadvantaged and 

isolated groups and communities. The workshop explores the full process of route planning and 

delivery – covering issues relating to purpose, form & function, health and safety, campaigning & 

marketing, sustainability, group management, associated community activities, commercial 

connections & supporters. The programme will include sessions with local ‘route developers & 

promoters’, volunteers & supportive commercial interests. Visits to include a variety of, national, 

regional and local ‘Green Lines’ including their information centres, evaluating their contribution to 

the themes of the Green Line Workshop and assessing their potential as exemplars for use 

elsewhere. The working sessions, which will be creative, experiential and informal set in a context 

of celebratory activity. Celebratory, as the gathering of diverse people for common purpose is worth 

celebration; Celebratory because the activities will be set in a context of words, music, dance and 

song; Celebratory because such an approach creates it’s own dynamic and energy and becomes , 

itself, a methodology. Day 1: ‘Contexts’ Who are we? Where are we? What and Where are the 

Green Lines? Evening: “Nooks and Crannies Event”, exploring the town Day 2: Experiencing The 

Green Line: Working with experienced trail developers on key issues. Evening: ‘Musical 

185

discoveries’ amongst ourselves and others Day 3: The Green Line as National trail & regional trail: 

Offa’s Dyke & Glyndwr’s Way Long Distance Footpaths. Evening 3: The muse – notes, blogs, 

impressions in words Day 4: The Urban Green Line. Where would a trail go – and how? Evening: 

Social preparations for the final Exhibition Ceilidh Day 5: Action Steps towards a Green Line: 

detailed proposals & delivery plan. Evening: Exhibition & Celebration, Music, Words & Dance – a 

‘twmpath dawns’ (ceilidh) using local & international talent, an event open to the whole local 

community

Sharpham Sounds 






The workshop will specifically target: older learners without basic qualifications and vulnerable 

groups (low income, rural location, job not secure, not in education, employment or training 

NEETs). At least two representatives from each of these groups will attend the workshop. 


Before they arrive, participants will collect a cultural resource from their local environment in 

response to the theme of ‘Your local natural world’. This could be a sound recording, a poem, local 

artefact or artwork etc. Upon arrival in Devon, sharing these resources as a group will form an 

entry into the project. A core activity will be to complete an audio-visual translation resource. 

Participants will be helped to annotate images of sound recording equipment, animals and natural 

scenes in their national languages (overlaying text and their own recorded voices into an MS 

PowerPoint document), forming the start of an interactive ‘Workshop Translation Glossary’. This 

will be expanded with additional terms over the workshop’s duration, forming an adaptable support 

tool to enhance language and cultural awareness training delivery. Participants will attend guided 

field trips to record ‘unheard’ sounds before editing and narrating them into an interpretation of the 

natural world. The narration will inspire a verbal dialogue between different cultural, social and 

lingual backgrounds. Participants will work together in (mixed nationality and background) pairs 

using the Workshop Translation Glossary to help compose sonic art duets that will facilitate lingual, 

cultural and artistic communication across the group. The workshop will use the English cultural 

setting of the Sharpham Estate, Totnes, Devon in order to access local outdoor natural areas. 

Excursions will cover different sites and relevant recording techniques. Experts in digital sound 

capture, technical language support and the environmental sciences will help participants record 

natural sounds that people don’t usually hear (e.g. high frequency bat calls recorded using a 

specialist bat detector). After each field trip recordings will be reviewed and edited. Cultural 

visits will be made to local historic public houses; Dartmoor National Park and the historic port of 

Dartmouth. Participants will be supported in experimentation with sound manipulation using free 

(open source) computer software. This will culminate in them exhibiting their creations at a large, 

free of charge public evening concert of multiculturally inspired sounds in a historic 18th Century 

acoustic space (Sharpham House). Alongside general public attendance, special invites will be sent 

to local community organisations, schools and special needs groups. The final material will provide 

an artistic and cultural learning resource for participants to consolidate their skills and to continue 

learning once the workshop is completed. Free open source software, means participants will be 

able to continue experimenting with their material from anywhere in the world.

Through the Looking Glass: the industrial and artistic history of the 

Black Country 


Cultural heritage / History and social science 



Older/Senior learners Adult Learners Learners with no or low qualifications Adults who are not 

currently in employment Adults from rural areas Adults from minority groups 


The Black Country region is an area rich in cultural heritage and, during the 19th Century, was one 

of the most intensely industrialised areas of the nation. This industrial past gave rise to a number of 

art forms, crafts and skills that were known throughout the world. This workshop will enable 

participants to learn about the history of the Black Country and, more widely, the West Midlands, 

and it is envisaged that each day of the workshop will focus on a different aspect of our local 

history. With our worldwide reputation for glass making having its roots in Stourbridge and 

Dudley, participants will witness artistic techniques in glass blowing and visit the recently restored 

Redhouse cone; the last remaining glassmaking cone in the world. Participants will also visit the 

Black Country Museum for a ‘canal art’ session where a leading canal artist will guide the group 

through the history of the folk art style. Participants will be able to paint their own piece of art to 

take away with them. Another day of the workshop will be spent visiting Lichfield where 

participants will engage in a tour of the city and have the opportunity to visit the birthplace of 

Samuel Johnson, author of the 18th century ‘Dictionary of the English Language’. Lichfield is also 

home to Darwin House, the 18th century residence of Erasmus Darwin (grandfather to Charles 

Darwin), and also Lichfield Cathedral which has a long a fascinating history, dating back to the 7th 

century. We also plan to run workshops throughout the week with the following possible topics 

(depending on availability): Pottery in the West Midlands, ceramics and their history in the Black 

Country, Saddlery in Walsall (with visit to the Leather Museum), the Jewellery Quarter and its 

origins. The workshop, as a whole, will provide delegates with a rich and diverse experience of the 

Black Country region. Delegates will be invited to research their own local history before arriving 

in the UK to allow everyone to share their own experiences and promote intercultural 

understanding. There will be a range of tours, hands-on workshops and classes during the week 

whereby delegates will communicate with one another and local specialists to share knowledge of 

the topic area.

Our world cultural heritage is in danger from natural disasters, such as earthquakes, floods, but also 

wars and terrorist acts. Priceless monuments may quite possibly disappear in a matter of minutes or 

collapse with the passing of time. The main activities of the Workshop concern scientific papers, 

educational visits, field trips, the collection and processing of materials, and assessment. In the first 

part of the Workshop a series of lectures will be given, which will provide all the knowledge and 

196

theoretical basis pertaining to the tools to be used for completing the Workshop’s task, which will 

constitute the starting point for performing the complete 3-D representation of the region’s 

monuments in due time. With the collaboration of expert scientists, the participants will acquire the 

essential learning experience and enhance their individual skills in the imprinting of cultural 

heritage monuments. In the second part of the Workshop, under the guidance of the experts, the 

participants will proceed to take measurements, photos, etc. of Paleochristian and Byzantine 

temples and a monastery, recording the data which will be processed next. During both parts of the 

Workshop, there will be offered field trips to Ancient, Byzantine and Post-Byzantine temples and 

monasteries in the wider region of the Municipality of Agia.

ελληνικά τραγούδια, πεζοπορίες σε μονοπάτια, επισκέψεις σε μουσεία, αρχαιολογικούς χώρους και 

τοπικές βιοτεχνίες. Μέσα από αυτές τις δραστηριότητες οι εκπαιδευόμενοι μυούνται στην ελληνική 

γλώσσα και στον ελληνικό πολιτισμό, αλλά έχουν και την ευκαιρία να συμβάλουν στην 

οικοδόμηση της ευρωπαϊκής διάστασης αποτελώντας και οι ίδιοι φορείς του πολιτισμού της χώρας 

τους. Και όλα αυτά συμβαίνουν σ` ένα νησί που αποτέλεσε το 19ο αι. σταυροδρόμι πολιτισμών και 

η πρωτεύουσα του, η Ερμούπολη, ανέδειξε την πρώτη αστική τάξη της χώρας. Σ`αυτό το χώρο 

όπου καθολικοί και ορθόδοξοι συνυπάρχουν μέχρι και σήμερα αρμονικά, η ιδέα της 

διαπολιτισμικότητας γίνεται τρόπος ζωής. Η Βαρδάκειος Σχολή, η διοργανώτρια οργάνωση, 

εκφράζει αυτήν την ιδέα, αφού σ`αυτήν μαθαίνουν ελληνικά και αγγλικά ενήλικες εκπαιδευόμενοι 

απ`όλα τα μέρη του κόσμου. 

The workshop aims to acquaint students with Greek language and Greek culture through an 

intercultural way. Key factor of the workshop are the learners (immigrants) of the host organization, 

which accompany the language lessons with activities such as cooking, storytelling, traditional 

dances, Greek songs, trecking, visits to museums, archaeological sites and local crafts. Through 

198

these activities participants learn the Greek language and Greek culture, but also have the 

opportunity to contribute to building the European dimension and becoming carriers of the culture 

of their country. And all these will happen in an island which was back in the 19th century a 

crossroad of cultures and the capital of Ermoupolis is the city that first revealed the bourgeoisie of 

the country. In this place where Catholics and Orthodox coexist harmoniously until now, the idea of 

multiculturalism becomes a lifestyle. Vardakeios School, the host organization, reflects this idea 

because their adult students come from all over the world.

Educational Theatre as the place for overcoming discrimination of 

people with disabilities 






Individuals with physical or mental disability that are at least 18 years old. 

Individuals interested in theatre and acting or working with the disabled (18 years old and older). 


Workshop aims to transfer practical knowledge for working with the disabled by means of theatre. 

Since both disabled and non-disabled individuals will participate in the workshop, we will actively 

search for actions that have the potential for overcoming prejudice in real life. The workshop will 

end with a joint public performance created by the disabled and non-disabled alike. This 

performance will advocate values of solidarity, inclusion and respect for people with disabilities. 

The workshop follows the stages of tribal initiation (rites de passage), as described by Victor 

Turner: 

1) Separation stage: form roles, norms and values 

2) Liminal stage: transitional or limbo phase in which we will explore our every day roles 

3) Reincorporation stage: participants reunite with their everyday lives - but! – enriched with the 

workshop experiences)

"Craftissimo" – Boot your social enterprise! 

Subject area: Learning opportunities for people at risk of social marginalisation, Second chance 

education, Social integration / exclusion 



The main goal of our workshop is to provide upgraded knowledge to disadvantaged people (eg 

unemployed, young mothers, older workers, etc) that supports them designing, developing, 

implementing their own social enterprise. Thus, our adult learners may return to the labor market 

and gain their own source of income and thereby improve their living conditions. A social 

enterprise does not only fulfill selfish interests, but also the whole society will benefit. This is a 

form of business, which is based on real social needs, and favors broader social layers. These goals 

are realized by working with disadvantaged and less educated social groups and/or by serving noble 

goals (eg. environmental protection). During the selection of participants we prefer: people with 

own social enterprise ideas, who lack the necessary business knowledge, representatives of nonprofit 

organizations working with less educated social groups. The program targets adult learners, 

or people who do not participate in institutional education. There is no age limit. 


The adult learners will receive inspiration, ideas and creative thinking patterns, business skills 

(market research, business planning, pricing, public relations, communication). They can participate 

in fieldtrips at well-established social enterprises. Such as the Bike Kitchen, that is a community 

bike repair workshop, where citizens can learn fixing and building bikes and donate them to 

disadvantaged people.

Parent-play – let’s play to become a more successful parent 

Subject area: Family / Parent education 





The major topic of our workshop is to promote the participants in becoming a more successful 

parent by following along children’s development – on the road of the development of play. During 

the 8-day-program the participants can relive the most important stages of childhood, from the 

beginning of infancy through toddler-age up to the teenager years – via a series of games, creative 

arts activities and sharing experiences. As a result of the experience, they can reflect on their own 

parental attitude, patterns, share their successes and get support in their difficulties in raising up a 

child. The supporting atmosphere and the colourful multicultural background help with the 

deepening of self-knowledge, exchanging parental experiences, energizing and, consequently, 

strengthening of the parental role and development. TARGET GROUP(S): Our workshop is aimed 

to support parents, especially single parents of any age-group. We are expecting those to take part 

who feel like getting stuck during the process of bringing up their children, who are puzzled and 

want to get distanced of everyday life and focus on themselves, gaining recreation and clarification 

of their own parental credo. 


MAIN ACTIVITIES / PROGRAMME OF THE WORKSHOP: We focus on a different age group 

each day through the characteristic, age-specific forms of play, in order to work with the parental 

attitude, skills, competences of the children belonging to that particular age group – in an 

intercultural, European medium. Day 1: ARRIVAL TO THE NEW WORLD - Birth of the group 

Day 2: PLAYING WITHOUT WORDS – Infancy Day 3: PLAYGROUND FOR LITTLE AND 

BIGGER ONES – Toddler Day 4: FAIRY TALES, DRAWINGS, MAGIC – Preschool Day 5: THE 

POWER OF THE TEAM – School children Day 6: GAME OVER? – Teenage Day 7: THE GAME 

NEVER ENDS! – Sharing experiences and observations, project day Day 8: THE SUCCESSFUL 

PARENT – Integration, closure, evaluation

Playing Tales and Telling Plays 



Strategies for stimulating demand for learning 



Tales and plays are our common language that links us to our children on one hand, and different 

peoples of Europe on the other. We strongly hope participants in the workshop will experience this 

connection. Tales and plays are tools for learning for children and adults as well. Expected number 

of participants: 20 people from the European Union countries + 4 Hungarians 

Preferred applicants: 

- Young volunteers who were drop-outs for any reason. They are often unemployed, and 

volunteering means the first work experience for them. Lack of experiences makes it problematic 

for them to deal with their child. They may face difficulties even when playing. 

- First generation migrants/refugees 

- Unemployed women (aged 35-50) with multiple children and outdated education which put 

them at a disadvantage, and results in social exclusion. However, they may get considerably 

reinforced by learning experiences in an international team. 

- Volunteers over 50 and/or unemployed for a long period of time. 


Let us take a 7-day excursion to the world of tales and plays. Since these two significantly correlate, 

we will examine how tales can be played and plays can be told. 

- Theory: Lectures generating discussions are planned on the history, role and importance of 

tales and plays in our life. Outstanding experts will help us to collect views and examples in small 

groups. 

- Practical application: All kinds of plays and games (children plays, plays developing 

competences), children and adult community games (self-knowledge, communication, teambuilding) 

community fantasy and board games, etc. will be tried in practice. 

- In the daily creative activities we will use several techniques to prepare necessary tools to 

play out tales and our own plays that can be taken home in our box of treasures. 

- We will discover how we can take advantage of social media to tell stories. 

- We will go for a fabulous stroll full of puzzles in Budapest and visit the Szórakaténusz Toy 

Museum and Workshop in Kecskemét

Reviving the Fun of Learning (Music) for our Families - supporting 

the human potiential in ourselves and our children 






For parents and grandparents, especially those without higher education. We invite you to a special 

week in Hungary, where parents can learn about how to best support their children's learning and 

study path, within or outside the former educational system. The workshop can host 18 participants, 

most of whom are parents without higher education. 


During the week, afternoons will be devoted to rediscovering the fun of learning for parents (and 

their children), through participating at workshops where they have the opportunity to learn music 

and to play an instrument through the learner-centered methods. This way parents will have a first 

hand expereince of what supports and what does not support (their) learning. 

These experiences then will be reflected upon and worked with in the Parents’ Workshops of the 

mornings, where participants will learn further facts about different aspects of learning, based on 

the most recent research in brain science and psychology. 

Parents’ Workshops will also provide a space for getting to know principles and tools of the 

Parenting by Connection approach as well as certain communication tools which are proven to 

enable parents to succesfully support their children on their learning path, to motivate them, to help 

them handle frustration, to make them resilient in face of failure and help them keep the inner drive 

for learning that is an inborn quality of all human beings.

Dance into your life / See life through dance - Let's get moving! 






See life through dance and get moving with it! Our workshop offers an opportunity, support and 

tools, in order to look on our lives from a different perspective. Not only look at it, but dive into the 

world of new and primary experiences! While this can change our images of ourselves, of others 

and the world, it also revitalises us and gives energy to carry changes through, by its adventurous 

nature. To reach this, we use a holistic approach and multimodal methodology that is based on the 

tools and methods of Integrative Expression and Dance Therapy, enabling us to work with a 

colourful variety of expressive art techniques, such as dance, painting, music and theatre. 

Our aim is to provide participants an experience of wholeness and of a complete life, by accepting 

our various limitations and at the same time overcoming them. 

The target group of our workshop is adults over 30 who are unemployed and/or don’t have any kind 

of higher education. We expect participants who are open to new experiences, personal 

development, moving together, work in group processes and willing to experience the meeting of 

cultures and views. No previous dance knowledge/experience is necessary. In our understanding 

every such movement that is self-expression by the body considered to be dance and as such the 

born capability of every human being. 


We intended to create a program that makes it possible to experience as many things as possible for 

our participants and we are going for the integration of all channels of perception and for the use of 

most colourful toolset of expression. The whole process moves from body awareness through the 

discovery of own movements towards the authentic moving patterns and self-expression. Paralelly 

we will experience the connection to each other, the world of touching and the living of fullness of 

the self in a group context. 

Main themes of the days: 

1. day: Forming of the group - Me and the Group 

2. day: Body awareness work - Me and my Body 

3. day: Body memory - Me and my Life 

4. day: Authentic movements - Me in the Present 

5. day: Relationships - Me and my Connections 

6. day: Communication, self-expression - Me and the World 

7. day: Living our fulfilment - My Dance 

8. day: Planning and implementation - Project work 

9. day: Steps leading to the goal - Presenting and evaluating the project 

10. day: Integration, drawing conclusions, closing

The E-Factor: Employability, Empoerment, Entrepreneurship and 

Europe 






The Workshop targets 20 participants (2 from the hosting country) who are unemployed or in very 

unstable working situations. 


Unemployment is one of the most relevant challenges in contemporary Europe and we believe that 

many efforts must be done in order to promote efficient employability strategies. E-Factor wants to 

be a step towards the inclusive growth by promoting a high-employment economy and active 

citizenship and investing in skills. Concretly, the project aims to provide unemployed persons a 

learning experience where they can increase their E-Factor, that mix of attitudes, skills and 

knowledge that increase the possibilties to become "employable". 

The learning outcomes for the participants are: increased self-esteem and confidence through 

empowerment methods - improvement of Learning to Learn Key Competence, that is the base to be 

an independent learner and to be able to evaluate what learning path needs to be followed in order 

to get a certain objective - to get to know about self-employement and entrepreneurship through the 

development of their sense of intitiative (key competence) - to improve their civic competence (key 

competence); to improve their ability to be able to participate in society and voice their concerns,

Playing Nyckelharpa: an orchestral experience between European 

folk music and contemporary compositions 






Musicians of different levels, in particular nyckelharpa players as well as composers writing 

contemporary music for nyckelharpa on a basis of folk music. 


The nyckelharpa is a bowed instrument with keys to change the pitch. One of the earliest depictions 

(1408) has be found in Siena, Italy. Since the Baroque period, the instrument was played only in the 

region of Uppland in Sweden as a folk instrument. In the 20th century, the nyckelharpa has been 

preserved from an impending final demise primarily by two exceptional Swedish musicians: August 

Bohlin (1877 - 1949), who improved the instrument technically to be played fully chromatically, 

and Eric Sahlström (1912 - 1986), who set an entirely new musical stimulus with an improved 

technique and many own compositions. Today, the nyckelharpa is played worldwide by a fast 

increasing number of musicians and in more and more musical styles. Outside Sweden, there is no 

traditional nyckelharpa repertoire. In the pan-European folk revival since the 70s, many musicians 

composed new tunes on traditional roots. Since Bartok and Kodaly, contemporary composers often 

rely on folk music of their countries. These different trends we will assemble in a verbal, medial 

and musical exchange about folk music in the respective home countries of the participants and 

contemporary compositions with their specific challenges of playing technique. We will contribute 

to a European repertoire for the nyckelharpa that does not neglect the roots but a the same time 

points a musical way for the future. The results of the musical work will be presented in a concert 

during which the media will be invited to report. 

Participants are expected to contribute obligingly and enthusiastically whilst the workshop, as well 

as to achieve well-defined and manageable tasks as regards preparing and follow-up. The organizer 

selects the participants on the basis of criteria so that a productive working relationship appears to 

be possible.

Migrants and Roma Inclusion 



Roma) 

Volunteering 



Adults active in volunteer organizations from new EU Member States: Bulgaria, Romania, 

Slovakia, Hungary and also from Turkey, wishing to improve their skills for initiating projects for 

social inclusion. Priority will be given to Roma, people discriminated for their ethnical origins; 

people from disadvantaged areas from a geographical or economic point of view. 


Ethnic minorities, and in particular Roma people, continue to face social exclusion and 

discrimination throughout Europe especially in education, housing and social welfare. Civil society 

organizations have an important role in developing and implementing strategies for inclusion. They 

will learn from Cooperativa LINDBERGH’s experience in the field of social inclusion of migrants 

and Roma through training, counseling, job and house search assistance. 

We will focus on the fundamental rights of people socially excluded and mobilize support to help 

them integrate in the communities they live in. Volunteers will presentb examples of good practices 

involving different stakeholders, local and regional authorities, schools and NGOs. Methods of non 

formal learning: group work, role playing, study visits, demonstrations, meetings and discussions, 

encourageing active participation and learning outcomes. Participants will improve their 

competences in developing initiatives for social inclusion of migrants and Roma through mobilizing 

community resources. They will learn about EU policies for inclusive growth and the possibility to 

access EU funding for social inclusion projects. Participants will reflect on respect for human 

rights, inclusive growth, common European values, thus contributing to the development of an 

active European citizenship. They will learn about the other participants’ cultures. Practical support 

to participants including interpretation if needed is provided. A cultural program and sport activities 

will be organized to give participants opportunities to learn about Italian culture and in particular 

the Liguria region culture, to socialize and establish partnerships that will continue after the project. 

MIR is the acronim of the project, but also a word that in many East European languages means 

"peace", which adds a symbolic meaning to the title. It will be used in publicising the project and 

project results. A brochure, DVD, and web site will be produced to disseminate project results 

through the participants' organizations and their regional and national networks.

Municipalities enabling the citizens 






Citizens with reduced mobility and/or their representatives 


Many recent legal initiatives insist on the importance of “user involvement” in decision making. 

Especially people with mobility reductions due to disability, age, illness or any other reason - 

respectively people representing them and/or being in touch with them - express their willingness to 

be involved in decision making processes. Yet they often do not have the appropriate background 

knowledge needed for taking influence. The workshop's central object will be the concrete 

involvement of people with reduced mobility and/or their representatives in planning and decision 

making processes at municipal level. Each of the 5 workshop days will be divided into 2 kinds of 

activities: a) visits of particular “targets” in the City of Luxembourg and b) discussion and exchange 

of opinions on what has been observed and how this particular topic is handled in the countries 

where the participants live.

The Transformation of Traditional Migrant Music in Europe: The 

example of Assyrian/Syriac Music 






Adult learners who are interested in Assyrian/Syriac music, unprofessional musicians, Lyric writers 

and singers. The group which will benefit from the workshop in the first place are the participants 

(direct group). We aim at a selection of different age groups (but all above the age of 18) of people 

who are interested in Assyrian/Syriac music or who produce music at a non-professional level; 

these can be singers, lyric writers and musicians. We will both advertise the workshops in various 

media and approach individuals whom we assume that they are of value to apply to the workshop. 

The final selection will be based on the combination of all the people who applied in order to be 

able to organize an interesting group of people in the sense that participants can cooperate 

effectively and reach interesting results. Indirectly, other Assyrians/Syriacs in the field of music 

will benefit because of future influence with the newly produced music by the group that attended 

the workshop. We assume this because of the high level of influence at community level. With the 

expected increase of the quality of music we also hope that younger generations of 

Assyrians/Syriacs will become more interested in modern expressions of music and culture in 

general and that their future participation in this field will increase. At a different level, we hope 

that indirectly the broader European audience will benefit in the future from this first workshop. 

Namely through individual singers and musicians who will be able to reach out to a broader 

audience at European level due to the quality of their music and due to cooperation with other 

European based artists. 


This workshop aims to discuss the main problems and challenges of contemporary Assyrian/Syriac 

music and provide a learning platform for people who are interested in the innovation of 

Assyrian/Syriac music in Europe. Furthermore, it aims to increase the quality of the music produced 

by Assyrian/Syriac musicians in Europe and to professionalize it in order to be able to reach out to a 

broader audience. The main activities of the workshop consist of lectures in the morning sessions 

about the ancient and contemporary church and secular Assyrian/Syriac music. In the lectures, the 

focus will remain on the production of modern secular Assyrian/Syriac music in Europe. In 

addition, as a matter of exercise, in the afternoon sessions participants will be working in small 

groups on the production of songs in order to get acquainted with the rich history of this music and 

the diversity of opportunities to work with it. In the evening sessions, participants will improvise 

music and discuss the outcomes of the working groups, both in relation to cooperation in the 

production of songs and the quality of the songs itself. Furthermore, special attention will be paid to 

the specific problems and challenges of the transformation of traditional Assyrian/Syriac music in 

233

the European diaspora. In our study visits we will be cooperating with local Dutch professional 

musicians.

an expert in restoration, member of ES ASSOCIAÇÃO-ENERGIA SUSTENTÁVEL and 

responsible for artistic programs for adults (ceramics, painting, wool dolls and storytelling). 

In a countryside environment, an expert in tile restoration facilitates a learning programme about 

Majolica Painting in Portuguese Tile, underlining the European influence over a major artistic 

expression of Portuguese identity, designed for non-expert learners. Artistic sessions are dedicated 

to experiment and create an individual tile project, based on 4 painting techniques (free-hand, 

“sgraffito”, stencil and perforated paper), to be exhibited as part of a multinational panel, simulating 

Europe reality. Cultural tours and study visits have the purpose of giving adult learners the 

possibility to question, debate and compare cultural and artistic aspects, exchanging ideas and 

concepts and gather inspiration for the group project. 

The aim is to merge participants into simple painting techniques using basic processes, easy to be 

multiplied and disseminated within their home organizations and their daily life, as well as 

integrating participants? Competencies and knowledge. 

The workshop is based on the 4 pillars of education (“The treasure Within” Report, UNESCO):

eWork for Active Seniors: e-work as a tool to promote active ageing 

and sustainable behaviour in competitive digital society 






European Seniors and adult learners that intent to use e-work as a pathway to improve their 

knowledge and competences (primarily disadvantaged adult learners); 

Any individual who is interested in developing his or her competencies that are highly required in 

the world of globalization. 


It has been proposed by the European Commission that 2012 would be elected as the "European 

Year for Active Ageing". The main aim of this initiative is helping to create better job opportunities 

and working conditions for the growing numbers of older people in Europe, by helping them take 

an active role in society and encouraging healthy ageing. The increase of empowerment and of 

social participation of European Seniors in today´s society is especially relevant as there are more 

and more learning opportunities that seek to meet the challenge of including older people in the 

information and communication society. These training opportunities are mostly in traditional 

learning settings and less frequently in a context of mutual support where older people work in a 

self-directed way. And yet seniors could be one of the target groups who would profit most from 

online learning opportunities, if appropriate e-learning scenarios are developed for meeting the 

needs of older people and dealing with some of their constraints. E-learning and e-work connect 

people overcoming mobility constraints and social isolation. These two learning and working 

methods combine sustainability, adaptability, interactivity and above all, usability. E-learning and 

e-working can be seen as the answer to Senior´s problems and as an opportunity for 

intergenerational experience sharing and knowledge. 

This workshop aims to introduce and to prepare Senior European citizens to e-learning and to e- 

working by presenting and working around several important topics such as active ageing, 

sustainability and digital competencies. It will gather a group of 25 English-speaking participants 

from 7 European countries and it will stimulate activities and discussions about how e-work can 

contribute to a more sustainable and inclusive society. The model of this workshop consists of 

bringing together a group of European citizens to work collaboratively and exchange ideas, 

knowledge and best practices.

Open Institutions – active aging through community arts 


Intergenerational learning / learning in later life / senior citizen 




Teaching 10 young adults from different European countries community arts tools to give new life 

perspectives to old people in Retirement Homes. 


Learners with good communication skills in English, who are determined and attached to the cause 

of elderly and institutionalized individuals, and who have the potential to promote and develop 

community arts-based initiatives in their local context. 

The planned activities are meant to facilitate both learning, and the intercultural and 

intergenerational experience. The core of activities is represented by workshops of community arts, 

a form of art techniques defined by the fact that the community/communities are involved in the 

creative process from the starting point to the final product. In the case of the workshop, the elderly 

are at the same time authors, subjects and the main audience for the community arts products. 

Learners will work together with tutors and the seniors on several community arts activities 

(collage, drawing, photography etc.). This will give the participants the opportunity to interact with 

a vulnerable community, to experience the approach of community arts with seniors, to understand 

at least in part, both the benefits and difficulties of such an endeavour. This hands-on approach will 

be complemented by activities focusing on theory, reflection and conceptual framing of processes, 

events and situations resulting from the community arts workings. The theoretical part will focus on 

presentations regarding methods used by several practitioners (artists, therapists, social workers) in 

community arts projects with institutionalized individuals. It will expose both methods developed 

by the 4th Age team and by other Romanian projects. It will focus on working with different 

categories of institutionalized communities – seniors, people with mental disabilities, homeless 

children, and prison inmates. 

Most activities will take place at the the “Amalia and Chief Rabbi Dr. Moses Rosen” Retirement 

Home, but we will also spare time for study visits, cultural walks and leisure events, which we will 

organise in order to give learners the chance to become familiar with the urban environment and to 

meet peers and other similar inclusive initiatives with an artistic input. Accommodation for the 

learners will be provided at the Retirement Home, with whom timely practical arrangements will be 

made.

COB BUILDING – A Path Towards Volunteering, Environmental 

Sustainability and a Healthy Lifestyle 


Volunteering 




Adults interested in volunteering and ecological lifestyle either on the personal or professional 

level. We will value and welcome any kind of experience in these fields, or in adult education, but 

this is not a compulsory criterion for selection of participants. A strong motivation and interest in 

the topics and willingness to invert energy into one’s development and growth will be key points in 

forming the group of learners. The profile of the learners includes the ability to communicate in 

English (at least basic level), and the willingness to get engaged in physical work during the cob 

building activities. There is no age limit set for the participants as we consider that age diversity 

will bring an added value to the workshop and the learning process. 


The workshop will use the cob building methodology and a holistic approach to tackle issues 

related to environmental sustainability and healthy lifestyle and to develop competences in the field 

of volunteering. We will use experiential learning and a variety of methods from theoretical inputs, 

practical workshops, debates, simulations, self awareness and personal development methods, 

fostering a safe learning space for the participants and empowering them for the involvement in 

volunteering activities using the competences acquired.

Main activities / programme of the Workshop: Wetlands are among the most biodiversity-rich 

habitats on Earth, yet they are threatened by a number of human and natural factors. European 

inlands wetlands in particular have been suffering from intensification or abandonment in the past 

century. Eastern Europe still preserves relatively large wetlands, and those of ‘Bazinul Fizesului’ in 

north-western Transylvania are particularly valuable being protected at European level. Participants 

to this 6-day workshop will have a chance to learn about environmental conservation and the study 

of wetlands and bird species, while at the same time helping to preserve the natural treasures of 

“Bazinul Fizesului”. The workshop organiser is also the organisation responsible for the 

management of these protected areas. As such, we offer participants a unique opportunity to 

experience and learn “from within” about the research and conservation of important habitats and 

species. Scheduled during the birds’ autumn migration season, the workshop will combine a small 

number of formal presentations with practical training sessions in field research and conservation 

skills, group discussions on specific topics, and a practical application making bird nesting boxes 

for protected species.

BATS BETWEEN MYTH AND TRUTH 



Volunteering 



Representatives of environmental bodies, teachers, people interested in volunteering, nature lovers 


“BATS BETWEEN MYTH AND TRUTH” is a 7 days workshop joining people interested to act 

for preserving biodiversity. The workshop place the BAT in the centre of the attention due to its 

importance in maintaining the ecological balance in nature. Pointing out that his only natural enemy 

is the MAN, the workshop change the wrong perception about bats, which was weaved by movies, 

horror stories. The workshop is an assembly of theoretical and practical activities, carried out in 

nature, at the Centre for research and protection of bats from Rarau, in the nearby of the Bats Cavea 

scientific protected area. Even if the topic of the workshop looks to be of a narrow addressability, 

it could be a workshop for every nature lover who wants to enlarge his skyline. Based on non 

formal educational methods, accessible language, the workshop programme includes topics about 

bats like habitats, way of life, feeding behaviour, specific features. We review some titles: “Batsco-habitants 

unique in their way” “Bats- very social air acrobats”, “A small animal with a huge 

appetite”; “Hibernation- an economical way of life”; “A high–tech echolocation system” “What’s 

the world without Bats?” Practical activities: exploring the Bat Cave, detecting bats echolocation 

system with special detectors, physical measurements on bats, building bat homes. The workshop 

also provides efficient tools of teaching about bats and coping at an European level in this field. 

Eurobats Agreement for bats conservation will be presented. As a put into practise exercise, learners 

will organise “European Bat Night” –annual multifaceted event carried out in 33 European 

countries in August.

Discover a Healthy Way of Life through the Romanian Traditions 






Teachers, parents, grandparents, ONG workers and volunteers, seniors (50+), lonely people, people 

from orphanages, people living in large cities, people living in remote areas 

Expected number of participants: 12 


The workshop main activities combine lectures given by specialised trainers, interactive dialogue, 

Power Point Presentations, short films and in-situ visits for the participants. All these activities will 

be aiming to discover a healthy way of life in the 21st century, through the Romanian traditional 

culture and civilization; in this regard, “healthy life” will be approached from three perspectives: 

food habits, communication, and social habits. The workshop participants will deal with this subject 

by examining items like posters, by film watching, by debates, by direct contact with the local 

people and by experiencing a healthy life in the Romanian villages. 

Before and after the workshop, the participants will be asked to give their own definition on a 

“healthy life” and, thus, each of them can observe the change of perspective. The workshop findings 

and support materials will be uploaded on the organiser’s site and on the especially created blog, in 

order to promote and disseminate knowledge on a healthy life.

European autonomies in practice 

Subject area: Regional identity 





Civil society and local administration representatives 


The general objective of the workshop is to bring closer different ethnic groups from Europe and to 

discuss the role of multiethnicity in regional development. The existence of several minority groups 

in Europe is a burning topic for defining regional identity, as the basic of all cohesion and regional 

policy. 

There is an ongoing discussion about the minorities, languages and different possible cross-border 

cooperation forms in European countries. Most of countries are hosting between 3 and 45 minority 

groups each. Nowadays Europe is counting 37 national languages, but 53 languages are without a 

state and are spoken by only 5% of the population. In order to define and to protect regional identity 

based on ethnicity there were supplementary mechanisms developed to protect them: proportional 

representation, autonomy and self-governance. Discussions about this topic at European level 

brought up such themes like: tourism and minorities, traditional products and minorities, minority 

languages and cultural autonomy. These topics are of great interest to adults living in such regions 

where the population has a different ethnic identity than the country they live in. Most of the 

European countries have this experience, so throughout this project we would like to bring upfront 

the discussion about the coherence between regional identity and regional development. 

The Workshop is built up with a specific theme for each day. The themes are introduced then 

discussed in smaller groups and then all together. The themes are: 

- Minorities influencing multicultural countries, with special regards to cross-border cooperation 

- Tourism in regions with different ethnic culture: traditional products and regional marketing, 

- Minority rights in Western and Eastern Europe in a comparative perspective and good governance 

in multiethnic communities, 

- Cultural and territorial forms of autonomy in Europe, 

- Financial aspects of self-governance models in Europe.
