Opis: “Pirouette” je dvogodišnji projekat izgradnje kapaciteta čiji je cilj promoviranje upotrebe performativnih uličnih umjetnosti poput cirkusa, uličnog plesa i street art-a kao inovativne metodologije neformalnog obrazovanja za podsticanje društvenog i građanskog angažmana mladih i, na kraju, dovođenja do rekonstrukcije urbanih i nerazvijenih područja grada uz vodstvo zajednice. Ideja koja stoji iza projekta proizlazi iz prepoznavanja društvenog i građanskog angažmana mladih kao pokretačke snage za razvoj zajednice.

Na osnovu ovoga, projekat koristi inovativan pristup problemu, jer se angažman mladih vidi kao polazna tačka za rekonstrukciju zajednice, a ne kao konačni rezultat. Štaviše, projekat namjerava da promoviše upotrebu različitih izvođačkih umetnosti kao inovativnu metodologiju neformalnog obrazovanja, jer je uključivanje izvođačkih umetnosti u neformalno obrazovanju (NFO) često ograničeno na jednu disciplinu ili nekoliko aktivnosti u okviru obuke zasnovanih na NFO. Inovativnost projekta proizlazi i iz primjene ove metodologije u omladinskoj razmjeni o osmišljavanju, implementaciji i upravljanju kulturnim i kreativnim inicijativama, što uključuje aktivnosti koje im pružaju kompetencije na terenu i iskustvu iskorištavanjem potencijala scenske umjetnosti kako bi se izgradilo samopouzdanje mladih, olakšalo njihov lični razvoj i poboljšale njihove međuljudske i komunikacijske vještine.

Glavni cilj: prepoznavanja društvenog i građanskog angažmana mladih kao pokretačke snage za razvoj zajednice putem upotrebe performativnih uličnih umjetnosti poput cirkusa, uličnog plesa i street art-a.

Specifični ciljevi:

• Uključivanje mladih ljudi sa manjim mogućnostima kroz učešće u mobilnosti i lokalnim aktivnostima osmišljeno je tako da im pruži vještine potrebne za autonomno izvođenje festivala/projekata/inicijativa scenskih umjetnosti koje vodi zajednica.
• Promoviranje vrijednosti demokratije i tolerancije među mladima koji će te vrijednosti prenijeti kroz svoja poznatija sredstva: umjetnost.
• Sađenje sjemena za podsticanje mira i postkonfliktno pomirenje kroz osnaživanje mladih ljudi zahvaljujući susretu vršnjaka različitog kulturnog porijekla, razmjeni ideja/izazova/pitanja/prijedloga i kapacitetu da se pokrenu inicijative vođene mladima za pomirenje snagom umjetnosti.

Projekat ima za cilj da proizvede sledeće rezultate:

• Provedeno istraživanje o najboljim praksama scenskih umjetnosti za obrazovanje, razvoj i rekonstrukciju zajednice;
• Format obuke dizajniran i testiran;
• Dizajniran i testiran komplet alata (toolkit);
• Mobilnost omladinskih radnika;
• Omladinska razmjena (Youth Exchange) mladih o kreativnoj urbanoj rekonstrukciji kroz scenske umjetnosti.

Ciljne grupe Pirouette projekta mogu se podijeliti u dvije grupe:

Direktne:

• Mladi edukatori, omladinski radnici i treneri iz programskih i partnerskih organizacija
• Mladi ljudi koji žive u urbanim i/ili ugroženim područjima

Indirektne:

• Mladi ljudi sa umjetničkim iskustvom ili iskustvom u organizaciji događaja
• Omladinske organizacije i nevladine organizacije, kulturna udruženja, organizacije civilnog društva (OCD) itd.

Timespan: 01/04/2022 – 31/03/2024

Donor: European Union / ERASMUS+ Programme

Call: ERASMUS-YOUTH-2022-CB

Description: “Pirouette” is a 2-year Capacity Building aimed at promoting the use of performative street arts such as circus, street dance and street painting as an innovative NFE methodology to foster social and civic engagement of youth and, eventually led to a community-led regeneration of urban/disadvantaged areas. The idea behind the project stems from the recognition of youth’s social and civic engagement as a driving force for community development.

Already in this, the project uses an innovative approach to the problem, as young people’s engagement is seen as a starting point for community regeneration and not its final result. Moreover, it intends to promote the combined use of different performing arts as an innovative methodology of NFE, as the involvement of performing arts in NFE is often limited to a single discipline or few activities within NFE-based training formats and the educational potential of the combination of different arts has not been exploited in the context in which the project is inserted. The innovativeness of the project also emerges from the application of this methodology in a youth exchange on design, implementation, and management of cultural and creative initiatives, which includes activities that provide them with field-based and experience-based competencies by exploiting the potential of the performing arts to build up the confidence of young people, facilitate their personal development and improve their interpersonal and communication skills.

Overall Goal: recognizing the social and civic engagement of young people as a driving force for community development through the use of performative street arts such as circus, street dance and street art.

The projects specific objectives are:

• The inclusion of young people with fewer opportunities through participation in mobilities and local activities is designed to provide them with the skills needed to carry out community-led performing arts festivals/projects/initiatives autonomously.
• The promotion of the values of democracy and tolerance among young people who will pass these values through their more familiar tools: that of the arts.
• Planting seeds for peace and post-conflict reconciliation through the empowerment of young people thanks to the encounter of peers with different cultural backgrounds, the exchange of ideas/challenges/issues/proposals, and the capacity to put in place youth-driven initiatives for reconciliation through the power of the arts.

The Project aims to produce the following results:

• Research conducted on best practices of performative arts for educational, community development, regeneration purposes;
• Training Format designed and tested;
• A toolkit designed and tested;
• Mobility of youth workers;
• Youth Exchange of young people on creative urban regeneration through performative arts.

Target groups of Pirouette can be divided into two groups:

Direct:

• Young educators, youth workers, and trainers from program and partner organizations
• Young people living in urban and/or disadvantaged areas

Indirect:

• Young people with an artistic background or a background in event organization
• Youth organizations and NGOs, cultural associations, civil society organizations (CSO), etc.
