Resumo:
Activities
Most of the activities took place outdoors, lead both by the team leaders and participants with initiative. We discussed about concrete cases of Community Supported Agriculture, bio coops, sustainability and a sustainable lifestyle. As the weather was nice, we stayed indoors just for the necessary activities which were static, such as the presentation where we needed a projector. Fortunately the weather allowed us to stay outside, against the forecast which scared us just before we started. The methods were diverse and included team building, inclusion, group discussions about what was understood and settling the knowledge, graphic representations either in a play, imaginarium of possible alternative communities where they live… non formal, reflexive :)
We cooked together. Each team, representing a country, involved the others in the cooking of various traditional dishes.
In the images uploaded on the website you can see part of the recipes cooked, from each country. The result: delicious! We can be proud that in the feedback forms we got the maximum for the food chapter and traditional recipes prepared.
Play and playing. We could point a finger at those that eat food which is not nourishing, do not read what is written on the labels of the products bought or they buy even without understanding what the ingredients are, but they will not be sensitized. The effect is most of the times the opposite. We could even be told to mind our own plate. And they are right. But so are we. Thus, we found an alternative: the discussion started from a game, about food and related topics. So we played and played to get all to the same level of knowledge about the logic of the games in general, in order to follow the necessary steps for creating a game: Carcassonne, Dixit, TopATop, Planet Cleaners and others and introduce the elements we have learned about sustainability, collaboration, stereotypes, healthy eating, genetically modified organisms, diabetes, local and global.
Making the games. During several presentation sessions we followed the stage of the games and the teams received feedback from the entire group. At the end each team managed to create a game, having a total of 4 functional games which are now used for educational purpose including. The young participants were ingenious and created certificated, roulettes, missions, dice, and all that was necessary to complete the idea that started from ‘food’ and ‘cooperation’. They have chosen alternative methods of payment, with fruits, vegetables etc.
Getting to know Maramures. Young people had the occasion to interact with the villagers and see the beauty of this area: the Bârsana Monastery, a wood carving studio, The Pain Memorial in Sighet, the Happy Cemetery from Săpânța, Peri Monastery, the city of Sighet. Maramureș is a wonderful region, full of tradition, a specific language and warm people with soft spoken attitude, traditional way of dressing and delicious meals.
Evening at the fire camp. Each national group had, besides the traditional cooking lunch, an evening where to present more thoroughly their country.. In the evening when the Latvian team did that, we also had a fire camp where different stories were told.
Este projeto vai ser realizado nos mesmos moldes do ano anterior: http://tradition-updated.startfocus.org/en/
Objectivos:
The idea
Starting from ”food” or ”nurture’ and having questions about the way we feed ourselves, we got to the TraditiON updated concept.
The purpose of the project:
Development of solidarity and the promotion of tolerance among young people from the participanting countries through raising their awareness about the importance of a responsible consumption of the everyday food and of the culinary traditions.
Project objectives:
• to learn about gastronomical traditions in different countries through experiential learning;
• to learn how to read the labels of food products;
• to provide learning of young people through the different methods of non formal education; we will also use the games we have created in the previous edition;
• to provide space for participants' learning about media and communication;
• to create a video as a result of the exchange and as a learning tool to be used for multiplication of the project;
• to raise the awareness about the European citizenship and the rights that come with it;
• to raise the awareness on information obtained from food."
4 types of games which can be used in educational activities were created and you can find them in the section The games. Part of them are board games, part of them are card games.
We wish our idea to be sustainable and multiply. Like this can be facilitates the introduction into the theme that guided us along the way( rural- urban, art& culture) and be inclusive, to be multiplied either on other types of traditions , such us dances, music, traditional clothes and life. In Romania we are continuing in the southern part and will continue in the rest of the countries, focused on regions. We started with such a wonderful area as Maramureș, rich in traditions kept and transmitted throughout time, including the culinary art, combined with social inclusion and spicing it with discussion on rural and urban connections related to food, traditional growing, genetically modified organisms and sustainable lifestyle. The rest of the country is as beautiful!
