Project Summary

Having faced the first COVID-19 wave, Europe is trying to cope with severe social inequalities. Moreover, the impact of Industry 4.0 influences the labor market and the way that all Europeans leave. According to the Eurobameter’s survey, 53% of respondents believe that Member States are close in terms of shared values. Having this in mind, culture can help bridge this divide, increasing cultural participation, and bring Europeans together to experience what connects them rather than what divides them. nder the afforementioned perspective, CUBE project is linked with the formulation of educational activities, but in a way that it is modern and digital, aligned with the new challenges. Our project desires to help artists to acquire skills and competences, including digital competences and entrepreneurial spirit that reinforce creativity in education. This aspect will bring innovation and sustainability of cultural sectors and industries in an era, when everything changes. Its objectives are:
– Promoting the upskilling pathways of adult artists and low-skilled culture workers, through the adoption of a virtual training programme
– Enhancing inclusion of all adult artists in their society, eliminating their risk of poverty and job loss
– Encouraging new entrepreneurial ideas related to culture and artistic sector, revealing new methods of funding
– Creating cultural incubators which will lead to the employability of adult artists, since it is being reshaped under the pandemic.

Based on the above the project responds to:
-the lack of specified training towards entrepreneurship
-the shortage of collaboration among all relevant stakeholders, regarding the concept of artistic sectors
eliminated access of low-skilled adult artists in entrepreneurial education
-the lack of jobs in the creative sector, due to the COVID-19 pandemic
