The main goal of this TC is to discuss two important issues.
The first is - how NGOs can use innovative marketing methodologies to draw
attention to some problems in their local community (ex. environmental, social,
economic or other). The second one is how NGOs can generally empower regarding
PR and media related issues. By doing this, our intention is to improve the
quality of youth work, using innovation and creativity, improving communication
skills (developing creativity in communication, marketing for NGOs, how to use
guerrilla marketing in non profits). All these together as a result should
multiply the impact of NGOs' activities and work. Another issue will be public
and media relations of nonprofits, in order to make nonprofits more interesting
to media. Methodology used in TC will be diverse, combining non formal and
informal methods. Program of this TC has been created in order to guarantee a
high quality of learning process and stimulate creativity and participation.
Interactive sessions will be organized as workshops, role plays, round tables
and some open air activities to complement. We will host and visit experts from
areas above to give us new points of view. Besides, participants will be stimulated
daily to share their ideas and go one step ahead and take initiatives during
the process of learning.
