Project GREAT

In January 2008 we started to cooperate in implementation of the three-year project in the field of education for development GREAT, which is coordinated by international NGOs ActionAid and Terre des Hommes, and partners of the project are non-governmental organizations (NGOs) from the new EU members: Ekvilib Institute (Slovenia), Polish Humanitarian Organization (Poland), Education for Democracy Foundation (Poland), Glopolis (Czech Republic) and an associated partner organization KOPIN (Malta). The project is executed with the financial assistance of the European Commission.

APPLICATIONS: NEW INTENSIVE COURSES

We are collecting applications for intensive training courses

In April 2012 we will start organizing intensive educational programs from the fields of Theatre of the Oppressed, Documentary photography and Documentary film. All programs are free of charge.

We invite everyone to take part in the courses who would like to gain or upgrade their existing knowledge in the selected fields and would at the same time like to – through the use of art – expose social issues which are important to them. The courses are open for everyone, however priority in selection will be given to members of different ethnic minority groups, national minorities and migrants. Everyone who speaks English or Slovene can apply for the training. The language of the training will be decided afterwards taking into account the prevailing language knowledge of the participants. If necessary, simultaneous interpretation will be organized.

The participants will be offered different types of support, among other things they will be able to borrow equipment, they will have access to the digital dark room, some will be awarded grants for future development of their projects, participating in festivals and meetings, and accommodation.
