24-27/10/2018 - Συνέδριο | Creative Generations (Γαλλία)

The next NCG Forum will take place in Nantes on 24-27 October 2018.

Everywhere in Europe, from Amsterdam to Séville, from Warsaw to Nantes, young people engage and innovate in order to strengthen the quality of life in their community. Developing relations between citizens, solidarity, the protection of the environment, artistic collaboration – every initiative is unique but all of them have a common objective: to strengthen the notion of “living together”.

In order to allow these young people to meet, to learn and perhaps to experiment with new forms of projects within Europe, the Nantes Creative Generations Forum brings participants together every year from Nantes and Europe to present a concrete initiative. The objective is to encourage and stimulate European exchanges so that they make progress together.

As well as showcasing their own projects, participants will have the chance to learn from peers across Europe and to gain a better understanding of the European dimension of local projects. This is a unique opportunity to develop a project, reinforce/create a network, exchange good ideas, strengthen English skills, etc.

Over the course of 4 days in Nantes, participants from every background are invited to:

Present a project or initiative;
Share best practice;
Develop skills in setting up projects in Europe;
Meet potential future partners with a view to setting up cross-border projects which could be funded by the Cooperation Prize;
Have discussions with other young Europeans;
Take part in city visits, cultural and social events.

Program:

Plenary sessions, to present projects to other participants, take part in discussions and public radio shows, and summarise the work carried out in workshops;
Workshops, to discuss specific themes in small groups and gain skills in setting up projects, in particular cross-border projects (methods, funding, communications tools, etc.);
Informal time, an opportunity to share experiences in more depth during free time.

Eligibility

To be aged between 18 and 30 years old;
To live and/or develop a project in Nantes Métropole or a Member state of the Council of Europe (+ Belarus);
To present a concrete initiative;
To fill in the application form to be launched every year in spring.
