Description
The MICA project aims to create a practical community of self professional education and self lifelong learning for Heritage professionals. The primary target group includes participants and partners of eCult Skills (Lifelong Learning Programme – Leonardo da Vinci 2013/2015) and Mu.SA Museum Sector Alliance (Erasmus+/ Sector Skills Alliances 2017/2019). Innovative ways will improve single professionals’ skills through collaborative work cafés based on peer learning strategies. Focus of the activities will be “How to manage and engage an active community for Cultural Institutions”. For this purpose, young experts from different fields (e.g., Gaming, Comics, online entertainment etc.) will be invited to each session, in which engaging an active community through digital means is already a consolidated reality. The consortium considers an active community a group of people who share a digital space, common interests and goals.
The main aims of MICA are to:
- guarantee a wider age range in participants to activities;
- give a wider and multicultural approach to professional experience;
- fight cultural field isolation;
- avoid social, age, sex, economic barrier to access high level professional training;
- increase digital skills and new technologies access for participants.
