BalsiKa 9 : paradise ?
Start date: Apr 1, 2015, End date: Sep 1, 2015 PROJECT FINISHED

This youth exchange will gather for 9 days (from Monday 29th June to Tuesday July 7th 2015) 28 participants most of them aged 13-18 + 10 leaders coming from 7 countries (FR-BiH-ALB-MN-MK-GRK-KO*) in Kotor (Montenegro). All will play music, and want to involve in Balsika Youth orchestra project. Preparation work will consist of internet research, meeting with experts and collecting witness statements. Theme will be about drugs, alcohol and the artist : paradise is in the same time this Kotor bay with youth orchestra - and artificial paradises, big temptation for youngsters and artists. Through workshops were each group will be expert after some home preparation research work, films, pedagogic games, questionnaires, discussions, artistic activities, participants will settle their minds and try to have their own opinion about those brain-modifying chemical substances and artistic inspiration. Aim is to speak about it with teenagers so that they think by themselves on that delicate subject. Aim of exchange is also to gather new groups into BalsiKa project and, thereby, work for peace and reconciliation. Artificial or utopic paradises? Durant 9 jours (29 juin-7 juillet), 28 jeunes la plupart agés de 13-18 ans accompagnés de 10 leaders vont se réunir à Kotor au Monténégro. Ils viennent de 7 pays différents (FR-BiH-ALB-MN-MK-GRK-KO*) et ont comme point commun de jouer de la musique et de vouloir faire partie du projet BalsiKa. Ils auront effectué un travail de recherche préalable (internet, recueil de témoignages, avis d'experts) sur le thème des drogues, de l'alcool et de l'artiste. Leurs rapports d'expertise, des activités artistiques communes, des jeux pédagogiques, questionnaires, discussions, films leur permettront de se faire une idée personnelle sur la créativité artistique et les modificateurs chimiques de l'activité cérébrale. Le but de cet échange est également de rassembler des nouveaux groupes dans BalsiKa et ainsi œuvrer, dans ce lieu paradisiaque marqué par bien des catastrophes, pour la paix et la réconciliation. Paradis artificiels? Ne pourrait-on pas plutôt œuvrer à rendre ce monde un peu plus paradisiaque? * FRANCE-BOSNIAiHERZEGOVINA-ALBANIA-MONTENEGRO-MACEDONIA-GREECE-KOSOVO
