Top 5 Erasmus+ projects on art, culture and adult education
/en/file/erasmus-artErasmus art
Erasmus+ has helped develop some amazing projects in the area of art, culture and adult education. Here are EPALE's top 5:
1.Once upon a time...in Europe
An inspiring Grundtvig project that used the power of literature to strengthen intercultural and intergenerational dialogue, and promote equality, social cohesion and active European citizenship.
2.Culture pilots
12 female immigrants from Linz (Austria) gave tours in the city centre and offered an insider’s view of their everyday life. The city tours were a great success and the project was honoured with the Austrian State Prize for Adult Education in the category “Innovation” 2009.
3.Opera-Q – art for integration
Opera-Q is a project that developed an intergenerational and intercultural learning approach through music. The project supported the social integration of vulnerable groups of poor social background.
4.Silver stories
Silver Stories was a partnership between nine organisations across six countries. The project set out to train professionals working in health, social care and related support services in the use of ‘digital storytelling’ as a means to integrate ICT into everyday working practice.
5.Museum Mediators - Guidelines for Museum Mediators professionals in Europe
This great project created many successful training courses for museum mediators and educators, taking into account their institutional and professional needs. The courses were delivered in five countries across Europe. The project is fully documented through a video log:
… and 3 honourable mentions
1.The stranger
The Stranger project turned the common human experience of being a stranger into an opportunity for positive dialogue between marginalised groups and the majority population. It collected stories exchanged between the four partner countries: Italy, Norway, Turkey and UK and developed dialogues in the local settings where the partners operate.
2.Inter-Generational European Memories (GEM)
The project gathered together memories of seniors from the participating countries regarding people, places and events which are important for the wider local community. A great combination of intergenerational and intercultural learning.
3.HERIQ
This project runs training courses to encourage the provision of excellence in guiding. These courses offer skills and materials to improve the careers of tour guides, and to make their activities more relevant to participants.

Program Erasmus jak zawsze daje o sobie znać w niezwykle pozytywny sposób i zaskakuje bardzo korzystnymi według mnie pomysłami.
Z tego co mi wiadowo, działalność Erasmusa zawsze była przeznaczona dla szkolnictwa wyższego i korzystać z niego mogli tylko studenci i pracownicy naukowi uczelni wyższych. Także głównym celem Erasmusa zawsze było ciągłe podnoszenie jakości nauczania w krajach uczestniczących w tym projekcie.
Dzięki danemu artykułu, z przyjemnością mogę stwierdzić, że w czasach teraźniejszych ten program jeszcze bardziej poszersza zakres swoich działań i co najlepsze, odbiorcami tego, jak zostało pokazane wyżej, mogą być osoby nie odnoszące się na swoim etapie życia do strefy uniwersyteckiej.
Realizacje projektów Erasmusu, o ile dobrze wiem, zawsze przynosiły znakomite wyniki. Dlatego jest wspaniałe, móc korzystać z możliwości, które on prezentuje, większej liczbie zainteresowanych.
I teraz najważniejsze to nie przegapić tych ciekawostek, dotyczących sztuki, kultury i edukacji dorosłych. ;)
Bardzo dobra prezentacja projektów, nie trzeba czytać długich opisów. Wszystko zawiera się w filmikach. Te projekty stanowią także źródła zdobycia dobrych praktyk. Możemy nabyć nowe umiejętności, które będą potrzebne nam w pracy zawodowej i nie tylko.
Mi permetto di segnalare il progetto europeo sul tema del cibo denominato “Taste of Freedom” nato nell’ambito dell’educazione permanente e rivolto agli adulti ristretti. Il progetto ha coinvolto 6 carceri europei - Italia (Massa M.ma e Porto Azzurro), Spagna (Las Palmas), Portogallo (Sintra), Lituania (Panevezys) e Turchia (Ayas) - dove si sono potute sperimentare attività che hanno aperto spazi educativi autentici, cooperazione tra coloro che operano all’interno degli istituti penitenziari, opportunità di integrazione e aquisizione di conoscenze e competenze legate al cibo.

Przeglądając wszelkie zestawienia typu "dobre praktyki" szukam inspiracji, a często potwierdzenia, że to, co planuję w mojej organizacji ma sens i wpisuje się w szerszy nurt. Ten wybór dobrych praktyk jest dla mnie ciekawy pod obydwu względami. Bardzo mnie ucieszyło pojawianie się digital storytelling - to temat wyjątkowo interesujacy dla trenerów - z jednej strony opowiadanie, fabuła, z drugiej - nowe technologie. Idealny mariaż.
Na stronie jednego z wyróżnionych projektów znalazłam ciekawy podręcznik, nie tylko dla przewodników http://heriq.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/the_interpretive_guide_2015_en.pdf, mocno związany z zagadnieniami dzielenia się własnym dziedzictwem.
Na uwagę zasługuje także sposób prezentacji projektów, zamiast opisów - dźwięk i obraz.
I love the idea of Culture Pilots and would be really interested to hear more from the participants about the impact that leading these tours had on the confidence of the tour guides. On the website there is some really positive feedback from participants of one of the tours in Portugal:
- "It surprised me in a very positive way!”
- “What I liked the most in these city tour are the shared life stories of these extraordinary people”
- “What I liked the most in the city tour was the informal way of getting to know a space, which wouldn't happen if it was a traditional guided tour”
- “I loved the interaction with nature and the proposed activities!”
- “I loved the complementarity among the 3 culture pilots, each one of them approached different subjects in a distinct way”
But I can't find anything from the guides themselves.
As well as being a great way to encourage integration I imagine that it would be a useful activity for learners who are not used to being listened to or having what they know valued.
Congratulations to all

Hello Aneta,
I had a look at the pArt project you mentioned earlier and it seems like some very interesting and educational stuff happened while it lasted!
Anyone interested in the variety of artistic activities conducted throughout this project can have a look at this pdf catalogue here: http://www.project-website.org/p-art/document/at-artistic-catalogue.pdf
Best,
Eleni
