Seminars

For the effctive preparation of the forum we have planned to hold five workshops/seminars of a practical nature.

The topics of the seminars are as follows:

  1. Social innovation and entrepreneurship and providing and delegating public services
  2. Citizenship Education
  3. Shaping politics and taking part in it
  4. The operating capacity and environment of non-governmental organisations
  5. Charity and philanthropy
  6. International cooperation

There will be an expert at every seminar who will share practical knowledge on a given topic and also carry out exercises. Later in the forum there will be group discussions on the same seven topics. The partcipants can choose which discussions they want to join.

During these discussions the results of the seminars are summarized and a joint discussion on the same topics using the World Café method is held. The conclusions made in this part are integral to drawing up later proposals.

The seminars will take place in Narva, Kohtla-Järve, Sillamäe, Jõhvi, and Kiviõli. Dates to be confirmed.

25 people will take part in each meeting. The majority of participants will most likely include representatives of non-profit organisations in the area, members of the local governments, and representatives of commercial enterprises. However, any representatives of non-profit organisations or local goverments interested in the seminar topics are welcome.
