Desired partner profile / sector
Partners with training and/or technological expertises
Ideas for a potential project
The project idea is based on the experience carried out with the Grundtvig Project “Theatre and Jail in Europe” 2004/2006 whose goals were:
□To integrate and consolidate theatrical experiences in jail contexts in Europe in order to single out shared intervention and verification models.
□To analyze the experiences in the partner countries, to single out good practices.
□To promote and support professional qualifications of categories of jail workers such as: social workers and cultural workers, jail wardens.
□To promote and support learning and professional training itineraries for inmates and former inmates through the use of non formal languages.
The following results/products of the project were:
□The research carried out in the partner countries allowed to single out a complex, diversified and developing jail reality on a European level with problems such as overcrowding, old and unsuitable structures.
The regulations of all the jails involved in the research entail the possibility of starting “training” itineraries for recuperating, rehabilitating and socializing the prisoners by means of cultural, recreational and sports activities and work outside the jail..
The theatrical performances in a jail context is a consolidated practice on a European level allowing to:
a) improve the basic knowledge and skills of the prisoners;
b) through the theatrical productions the jail opens to the society and consequently it also becomes a training and culture institution.
□Book of good practices, it is a collection of the methodologies, processes, materials and tools which demonstrated to be effective in the partner countries.
Our idea of a multilateral project for innovation transfer aims at building an innovative model suitable to different targets, sectors and contexts allowing the theatrical performances in jail to develop its full innovative potential and to produce the foreseen consequences.
The partnership includes some partners who participated to the previous project such as Carte Blanche (Italy) project leader; EscapeArtists (England);Théâtre de l’Opprimé (France); AufBruch Kunst Gefangnis Stadt (Germany) and new partners (university institutes and other organizations having specific teaching, technological skills including project management).
The reference target shall be: in the short term – workers of the associations/institutions working within the jail, social workers and cultural association workers, jail guard; in the medium-long term - prisoners and/or other disadvantaged target people.
The transfer shall concern: jails from Northern and Central Italy; the University of Milan – Bicocca, Faculty of Educational Sciences in order to produce training for the trainees and the Leoamici Foundation – Komlo (Hungary) which will use the model for targeted drug addicts and alcoholics.
The following activities shall be planned:
□Definition and analysis of the needs of the subjects and of the organizations working in jails, interested in the transfer.
□Selection, analysis and adaptation of the existing material/contents
□Creation and implementation of the Learning management System
□Creation of the E-Learning modules
□Production of DVD containing a selection of the backstage and of the performances having taken place in the European jails.
□Establishment of the European Centre of Theatre and Jail in Europe.
□Organization of an international festival of Theatre in Jail by the end of the project.

Profile/sector of the organization
GEB is a certified non-profit organization established in 1989 by professors and students from the University of Berlin „Freie Universität” under the name “Romanisches Büro”.
At the beginning the main objective of our organization was cultural exchange and transnational dialogue between students from the University of Berlin and students from countries with Latin based languages.
But we evolved, and now we are functioning as an educational training centre. At present our main aim is education, mostly vocational and non-formal education. In our area, we are working as advisors for institutions such as schools, small and medium-sized companies and administrative institutions. We are looking for partners in all Europe, and we are helping in the planning, realization end evaluation of European projects. In such a way we continue with our primary concept of transnational exchange and cooperation.
Our activity is mainly directed to young people, adults and less privileged people. We give them the opportunity to get professional experience and take part in transnational training.
Desired partner profile / sector
We are looking for schools and intermediary organisations with a big interest in Germany, since one of our organisation aims for 2009 is to host more participants in Berlin.
On the other hand, we are looking for partners willing to cooperate in LdV Mobility projects (PLM and IVT) on eco-tourism and railways connected professions.
Ideas for a potential project
1 – The German vocational system of education is very well known abroad for the dual system (combination of theoretical teaching in the school and practical training in the company). In cooperation with the vocational centre from the S-Bahn from Berlin (city train company) GEB will apply for a LdV mobility grant for IVT and PLM. Our aim is not only to increase the mobility of apprentices in this sector but also to develop modules of contents, so that the knowledge the German trainees bring from abroad can be recognised in their home country, avoiding the repetition of contents in the lessons.
We already have a many partners in Europe but any working in the railway field; therefore we would like to meet in Rome some organisations with experiences in this field in order to carry out this project.
2- Nowadays to speak foreign languages is a great asset and increases the changes of getting an employment. If this is true for all sector in the tourism sector this is vital. Aiming at increasing the interest for foreign languages GEB, in association with the European department of the vocational schools from Berlin, will apply for a IVT mobility project (4 weeks). We are looking for partners in Malta, Great Britain, …
Within the framework of these projects we would like not only to send participants abroad, but if there are European schools or organisations willing to send us their pupils we are a good partner, because with our local partners we can assure a project with good quality.
