During the two-year long Grundtvig Partnership „Enough for Everyone Forever“ four European organizations (based in Spain, France, Germany and Poland) work together to improve educational methods for sustainable education.

All four partners use creative methods to work with adults on political and ecological topics, but each one is expert on a specific approach such as visual arts, theatre or music.

Each organization hosts one meeting, inviting the partners to get to know its context of educational work. During those meetings, we share our skills and experiences both in theoretical and practical ways. Combining our creative approaches, we develop an interdisciplinary action that is carried out in the public space and sensibilizing the audience about sustainability.

What we have learned during the process is then transformed by each partner into an innovative pedagogical concept adapted to the organizations context and target group. After putting the concept into practice individually, we meet for the last time in order to reflect on the potential of the new tools that we have developed and to plan our future transnational projects, where we are going to bring together adults from different cultural backgrounds and use our newly acquired educational skills to work together on a sustainable future.

to.pole




To.pole Association was established in 2010 in Kraków, Poland. It is open space which brings together people, who wish in a creative and active way to affect positive changes in the local community they live in. Great importance for all of us is the respect to cultural heritage, tradition and history, as well as building intercultural dialogue and responsible attitudes towards environment.

We wish to share our values with others, through innovative and creative activities, which we propose in our projects. Crucial part of our work is engaging local community into our actions, so we often work in public space. We search for innovative methods and forms to involve people into process of creation, to make them active.

One of the  main aims of organization is  empowerment of people from  disadvantaged areas, including elderly people, by organizing, spreading  and supporting cultural and educational activities, which they are engaged in. Projects we organized so far were reflecting our common philosophy of sustainable development and included issues mentioned above. The audience and participants were mostly adults, but we never set age limit as one of our goals is to work for dialogue between generations.

By participation in this project, we wish to exchange knowledge and experience on adults ecological education through arts. We want to work out new and more effective methods in that field, which we can implement, together with other European partner organizations. We wish that the project will be also the starting point of our future cooperation with mentioned partners, also beyond the project.
