The projects themselves generate the "European added value". Their goals, their methodology and their nature of co-operation possess an aspect that has a European/international scope. The proposed activities already have a strong impact upon the objectives, yet the effect will be additionally enhanced through the planned new international project. The project brings an important new element to the active involvement of the elderly population in the design and creation of performances, participation in workshops, visiting performances......The excellence of the proposed activities is reflected above all in the transfer of new approaches / technologies / good practice which will be passed over to the traditional masters of puppetry art. The latter will use their fresh creative energy to present their skills and their knowledge through performances to a wider public in different countries – so in the period of Project duration as well as later within post-production lasting 3 to 5 years. In this period the acquired skills anThe Project’s events represent a unique opportunity for local Slovenian, Croatian, Serbian, Hungarian, Estonian, Slovak, Bosnian, and also Belgium artists, cultural workers, experts in performing and visual arts, yet also for the wider audience, to meet artists from other European and non-European countries in person and to learn about their work and their performances. The result of the project “Puppet Nomad III” will be the upgraded mobility of cultural products, and authors; links among partners will be renewed and settled. New ideas emerging within the Project will lead to further projects and to co-operation also with other similar organizations and projects around Europe. When the Project ends we will continue to apply for other funds at local, regional, national, EU and international levels; we will do our best to develop and to extend our activities by including new partners.
