Training for Mobility and Intercultural Relations

ECUMEST

'Mobility' is increasingly becoming a key word in artistic practice, cultural management and policy. Yet, like all 'jargon', it means many things to many people. Cultural management trainers, teachers and practitioners need to equip their students and collaborators with the necessary understanding, facts and tools to be able to work in our increasingly global, mobile environment. Corina Suteu will deliver a training of trainers session designed to equip teachers and coordinators with the material they need to explain 'mobility' in the cultural field. Studies, bibliography, readers, internet tools, policy developments� All you need to know!

After a session conducted on 8 September in Helsinki (during the ENCATC academy), On-The-Move together with ECUMEST will organise the second training of trainers on this issue, to take place in Bucharest, November 2, 2005.

Should you be a cultural organiser, producer, manager or artist, or cultural management teacher/trainer interested in finding more about these issues, but also enabled to perform and further disseminate these training contents, REGISTER FOR THIS WORKSHOP!

The session will take place at the Council of Europe Information Office in Bucharest (6 Alexandru Donici St.), which is partner to this event. The working language will be English.
