If we want build more humane, equitable, and sustainable projects, workplaces and communities, we need to create more bottom-up entrepreneurial activities. This can offer new ways of doing work that benefit us, our communities and the whole.

In this training we will explore new ways of living and working more collaboratively. We will practice  and co-create models, methods, and worldviews that challenge the current operating system of society and offer more long-term alternatives.

Our team has designed the training as a safe space for experimentation, development, and prototyping of new and mature initiatives that would transform our teams, our organisations, our country and the planet.

The training takes place in the wake of  2019 – the year Plovdiv will become the European Capital of Culture. We wish to provoke new ways of thinking about entrepreneurship and its relationship with the four platforms of the initiative – Fuse (integrate minority groups and bring more diversity); Transform (bring new life to old places); Revive (offer a fresh look at the rich heritage we have) and Relax (enjoy life and think sustainably). We believe there is а big potential for new initiatives solving these key challenges of the city by providing a platform for people to meet, co-create and work together.

WHAT TO EXPECT?

  • Theory, methods and practical tools that can help you to create work which is meaningful for you, your stakeholders and the whole ecosystem.

  • Laboratory for practicing collaboration where you can bring your ideas, projects and challenges to work on, co-create with others and to find ways to apply the learning in your own contexts after the training.

  • space for meeting people with similar values and ideas and learning from their stories and experiences.

  • Standard fee: 250 EUR

  • Local scholarship (young people and entrepreneurs from Plovdiv): 50 EUR
  • Scholarship: 75 EUR

The fees include: participation in 3-day training, learning materials, coffee breaks and light lunches for the three days. For this training we use the Shared Economy model. This is a cooperative, responsibility-based approach to funding the training where the community as a whole holds the financial responsibility, and not just the organising team. Taking into consideration the costs of the event and one’s own financial resources, each participant is invited to identify what they can pay, then add a little more.
