Kistarcsa Cultural Association (project coordinator)

The Kistarcsa Cultural Association started its operation in April 1993. The civic organisation, which has a membership of 60, is committed to contribute to the improvement of the cultural life of our settlement. The association was officially established in 1994. The members of the association meet once a week, when educational lectures are held. There have already been more then 1000 lectures about various topics. Some of the members also act as lecturers but well-known and respected experts are also often invited. These programs are open for everybody, and are published by local and regional papers and in regional broadcastings. None of the members of the association receive any emoluments for their work in the association everybody contributes to our activity by voluntary work.

The integration to the European Union brings up a lot of social problems. We organise courses, seminars and conferences to handle these programs and to prepare the inhabitants. The outstanding example is an international seminar for mostly the youth, which was held six times with foreign participants. Members of our association often participate on exchange visits, seminars, trainings in the country and abroad too.

DEMOS Institute of Critical Thought

DEMOS is an independent think tank which conducts research, promotes educational and awareness-raising activities, and is dedicated to the issues of the labor movement and human rights protection in Lithuania and Europe. DEMOS aims to become an influential voice in the formation of social and economic policies in Lithuania. The core of the Institute consists of fifteen experts including political scientists, sociologists, public relations experts, and journalists, who all work together providing analysis, critique and publicity to the issues that threaten democracy and the implementation of labor and human rights in Lithuania and the EU. DEMOS long term objectives are to reduce social tension, economical and social disintegration.

During the course of the last several years, the organization has organized dozens of adult education events, where emphasis was placed on analyzing the problems arising in Lithuania. However, we also strive to use non-formal education methods, which allow to gather people and share experience, so this project would be a great way to improve the competences of the members and volunteers of our organization.

Cultural and Touristic Association of the Ipel Valley

The organization was found in 2001 and it is a non governmental organization, we have our takings from applications. Our main goal is to save our ethnical worth, our folklore and give them onward to the young generation. We have folklive festivals, handicraft camps to achieve this. We bought an old farmhouse, renovated it and now we had our 15th handicraft camp in our Craft House. The children are very responsive to learn all the handicrafts what we can teach them. They also love to make meals how our grandparents cooked them, for example potcake, bread. In autumn we are drying apples, peaches.

The Craft House is not a museum, it is alive. We have three room furnished like in the past but in the kitchen we are cooking every day, we have visitors. The local elementary school’s students are too coming to us every month to learn handicrafts, to learn how was living in the 1950’s.

Our future goal is to build a large building from hempconcrete next to our in which we want to have an one year long girl school focusing on what you had read above. It is really important to teach them how to cook with good ingredients and without additives. We want to have a larger kitchen and a large room for celebrations, for the handicraft camp. We have a future idea of a restaurant too.
