Eptisa presented CAMINA, a case study for the “thematic workshop on gender, diversity, ethics and communication” at the online webinar organised by ARCHETHICS, an URBACT Action Planning Network.
The objective of Camina is to promote innovative actions for culture through “Civic Curators”. The “civic curators” are “social laboratories for culture” that involve cultural users, local associations and citizens to co-design the novel Cultural Programme of Almeria through participatory planning workshops and collaborative culture initiatives. To select the members of the civic curators, the Municipality of Almeria launched a call for participants. Twelve local organisations were selected and grouped in six civic curators.
Thousands of people participated in dance, music and theatre performances, urban walks, talks, exhibitions, artistic and photography workshops. School students were involved in video-making activities and laboratory experiences. Many people had the opportunity to visit the neighbourhoods of La Chanca-Pescaderia, Almedina and the centre of Almeria, learning about the potential of these places and the importance of their heritage. Through the cultural activities spread around the three neighbourhoods, CAMINA achieved to attract people in places considered marginalised and deprived, places where people do not use to go due to fear or simple misinformation. CAMINA has triggered a process of de-stigmatisation of the targeted neighbourhoods, fostering the social inclusion of the people living there.
The huge participation in the CAMINA cultural events demonstrated the power of cultural participation and the important role of culture as a sound tool for inclusion and social cohesion.
Eptisa在URBACT組織的主題關(guān)于性別、多樣性、倫理和交流的專題網(wǎng)絡(luò)研討會(huì)上展示了名為“CAMINA”的案例研究項(xiàng)目，本項(xiàng)目旨在通過(guò)“公民策展人”來(lái)促進(jìn)文化的創(chuàng)新行動(dòng)。
“公民策展人”是“文化的社會(huì)實(shí)驗(yàn)室”，由文化使用者、當(dāng)?shù)貐f(xié)會(huì)和公民參與，通過(guò)參與講習(xí)班和合作性文化倡議，共同設(shè)計(jì)阿爾梅里亞的新文化方案。
為了選擇“公民策展人”成員，阿爾梅里亞市發(fā)起了對(duì)參與者的呼吁，12個(gè)地方組織被選中，并分為6個(gè)策展組。成千上萬(wàn)的人參加了舞蹈、音樂(lè)和戲劇表演、城市散步、演講、展覽、藝術(shù)和攝影工作室，學(xué)生參與了視頻制作活動(dòng)和實(shí)驗(yàn)室。許多人參觀了拉昌卡-佩斯卡德里亞、阿爾梅迪那和阿爾梅里亞中心的社區(qū)，了解了這些地方的潛力和其遺產(chǎn)的重要性。
通過(guò)在這三個(gè)社區(qū)傳播的文化活動(dòng)，CAMINA成功地吸引了一些被認(rèn)為是邊緣化和貧困地方的人們，這些地方的人們由于恐懼或錯(cuò)誤信息往往不習(xí)慣參與，CAMINA成功促進(jìn)了對(duì)目標(biāo)社區(qū)去污名化，促進(jìn)社會(huì)包容度。CAMINA活動(dòng)展現(xiàn)了文化參與的力量以及文化作為增強(qiáng)包容和社會(huì)凝聚力的良好工具的重要性。
