Poszukiwani chętni do współpracy w ramach obszaru Sieci Europejskie

Instytucja Post Bellum z Chech poszukuje partnerów do stworzenia sieci europejskiej w ramach obszaru Sieci Europejskie komponentu Kultura. Główną działalnością czeskiej organizacji jest dokumentowanie wspomnień poszczególnych świadków związanych z ważnymi wydarzeniami XX w. Celem sieci jest dotarcie z archiwum do szerszej publiczności oraz stworzenie zbiorów odrębnych historii.

Działalność czeskiej instytucji Post Bellum skupia się na przygotowywaniu licznych wystaw, publikacji książek, komiksów oraz organizacji różnorodnych wydarzeń. To instytucja wciąż poszukująca nowych sposobów, by rozwijać publiczność zainteresowaną tematyką XX w.

Chętna podjęcia międzynarodowej współpracy placówka Post Bellum poszukuje organizacji pozarządowych, instytucji edukacyjnych i innych podmiotów mających zamiar dzielić się doświadczeniem, porównywać, oceniać i omawiać historyczne nagrania, teksty, fotografie oraz dokumenty archiwalne, promujące i upowszechniające historię XX w., kształtujące odbiorców oraz wychodzące ponad poziom krajowy czy regionalny.

Szczegółowe informacje na temat projektu oraz działań czeskiej instytucji Post Bellum znajdują się poniżej.

Short description

Post Bellum is a non-governmental non-profit organisation documenting the memories of witnesses of the important historical phenomenons of the 20th century and trying to pass these stories on to the broader public. It was founded in 2001.

Our mission

In 2001, a group of Czech journalists and historians, who had been hitherto meeting at various press conferences or annual commemorative acts, founded the non-profit organization Post Bellum (from Latin “after the war”). They were led by their conviction that witnesses of historic events need to have an opportunity to tell their stories in detail and in their entirety. These memories bear precious testimony not only about modern history, but about the character of the Czech (and other European) people as well. If they are not preserved for the present-day and future generations, the society will hardly be able to cope with its history of totalitarianism. Our aim is to form a collection of interviews as extensive as possible – a collection of authentic personal stories and testimonies.

Post Bellum tries to pass on their stories to the broader public. We prepare exhibitions, publish books, comic books, organise social events. We continuously search for new ways of getting people interested in the topic, of stirring up a society-wide debate on democratic values.

Project

Field(s): Intangible Cultural Heritage of the 20^th century held in memories of victims, heroes and even the guilty ones – networking in and outside the EU, conserving, archiving, editing, promoting and exchanging the endangered heritage and messages by means of new electronic tools, educating esp. via informal methods, experiences, people and know-how

Description

Our goal(s) are

Generally

1) Establish an official network of organisations willing to conserve the intangible cultural heritage of Europe as already stated in the Memory of Nations network called COMMUNITY OF EUROPEAN MEMORY see http://www.memoryofnations.eu/ and http://www.memoryofnations.eu/page/index/title/what-is-memory-of-nations

It can be thematically widened, if interested, of course

Specifically we want to:

1) upgrade the existing network tools, esp. the medias used or to be created as – a) common website, b) common on-line archive, c) exchange network of common education tools – to be created, d) translation tools – to be created etc.

2) Enable creation of sub-networks in order to exchange i.a. methods of conserving, promoting, educating, research, professionalisation etc.

3) learn/improve fundraising esp. between individual and corporate organisations but also from public (EU, national) resources

4) Establish new Awards for a) Heroes of recent European past and b) for the best creative modes of media promotion (eventual), including reminding key years as 1918, 1938, 1939, 1956, 1968, 1977, 1980, 1989, 1991, non-freedom regimes, occupations, walls/fences etc.)

5) secure necessary IT and media equipment (SW and HW) for conserving the intangible cultural heritage we either have or want to gain in future (on-line archive etc.)

6) Avoid potential deliberate misinterpretations of recent (not only) European history as, for example todays Russia, seems to do

7) Any other ideas? This list can be changed based on your feedback

Partners searched

Countries: Whole world (but we can cover up to 80% of costs as specified in the Call (EU + ENP countries) – see call here https://eacea.ec.europa.eu/sites/eacea-site/files/network_call_notice.pdf

Profile:

Organizations as NGOs, educational institutions, governmental and semi-governmental agencies (not only) in Europe aimed at saving the intangible heritage of the 20^th century, which intend to share, compare, evaluate, and discuss their recordings, texts, photographs, and archival documents, exchange their work, know-how, especially in terms of recording the witnesses, promoting their stories, educating youth, all this at hopefully more than national/regional level.

Organization’s PIC number is necessary! See the Call or ask me.

Other

We can accept any organization, nevertheless the eligibility of costs is subject to rules of this call and we cannot provide more. Each partner would have to cover its costs proportionally (20%).
