High IMpact CUlture and ART incubatOR with Erasmus+

Description

United Nations states “The growing COVID-19 crisis threatens to disproportionately hit developing countries…as a devastating social and economic crisis over the months and years to come”According to the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, UK, Spain and Italy are in the top of the 5 European countries that have been the most affected by COVID-19 with a high number of cases and deaths reported since the beginning of the pandemic.The OECD unemployment rate edged down to 8.4% in May 2020, after an unprecedented increase of 3.0 percentage points in April, to 8.5%, the highest unemployment rate in a decade. This situation will get worse in the months to come.According to the Study, Culture shock: COVID-19 and the cultural and creative sectors developed by the OECD, “The Cultural and Creative Sectors are among the hardest hit by the pandemic…containing the greatest share of jobs at risk.” Andrew Lloyd Webber, English composer of music from The Phantom of the Opera and other relevant musical theatres, warns arts are at the “point of no return” following damage from the coronavirus pandemic. During the first months of the pandemic, arts and culture sector organisations in most of the countries restricted their activities or closed completely. Cultural heritage organisations, arts events, galleries, libraries, museums, cinemas, theatre, concerts, orchestra performances, festivals, television/music productions, etc., were closed.Rural areas, particularly in the developing world, are much less prepared to deal with the direct and indirect impact of this crisis. Adults, especially from rural areas, will become a vulnerable piece in the Post-COVID society. The arts and culture sector will be more affected in rural areas than in cities.Our Strategic Partnership carried out a Context Analysis and Focus Groups (with adult trainers and adult learners) that demonstrate the alarming situation adult communities are being through. We consider that one of the relevant keys to confront this situation is Entrepreneurship. However, in both analyses, we identified different reasons of entrepreneurship failure in adults, such as: lack of knowledge and capacities in entrepreneurship (project definition and implementation, financial, team management, etc.), lack of confidence, lack of innovation and digital skills, etc.CWP, Permacultura Cantabria and Oriel are in the need take urgent recovery measures to minimize the long-term impact, particularly for vulnerable and marginalized groups, and help societies to recover better. We want to carry out this project, to help tackling this situation, through the creation of the H_imCUbARTor Methodology. It will be composed by a framework of 4 priority key areas in entrepreneurship (during and after COVID):-Innovation-Creativity-Circular Economy-Sustainability-Digital (Tools for efficiency and project visibility)The main objectives of the project are:-To engage adult trainers and adults in the creation of social projects that contributes to the COVID-19 recovery process in the culture and arts sector.-To design the H_imCUbARTor Methodology for innovative entrepreneurship.-To empower adult communities with the H_imCUbARTor Methodology.To reach these objectives we will carry out these main activities:-COURSE IN SPAIN: 3 adult trainers, 3 adult learners and 2 mentors per organisation will attend a Course in Spain to acquire the innovation process by using Dragon Dreaming (DD), for cultural, digital and social projects, in an expert level.-ONLINE MENTORING: 3 teams/country composed by 1 adult trainer and 1 adult learner will work together to transform and incubate the dreams into 9 projects. They will receive support from the mentors through online sessions, which topics are Creativity, Circular Economy-Sustainability, Digital tools for project efficiency and high visibility.-CREATION OF THE METHODOLOGY AND INTERACTIVE BOOK: Mentors will create the H_imCUbARTor Methodology and will document it in an interactive book that will be available in English, Spanish and Italian.-PARTICIPATORY VISIT IN UK: Mentors will design a course to transfer the new methodology. 1 mentor and 1 adult trainer multiplier will attend to a Participatory Visit in UK in which mentors will share/validate the new course and test the book with associated partners.Through a strong Worldwide Dissemination Campaign we will spread the project and its results to relevant stakeholders.IMPACT SUMMARY The new knowledge acquired by project participants will be key factor in the creation of entrepreneurial initiatives leading to sustainable rural development. They will be empowered and their motivation and confidence will be substantially increased. We will improve the vitality of rural areas by providing new opportunities for diversification and a more efficient use of local resources. The arts and culture sector will be re-activated with more activities for the communities to enjoy.
