Objectives

In a large data stream, in which we live now, we are forced to quickly switch attention, weeding out unnecessary information. From the point of searching for important content it is good, but in terms of concentration and immersion in the topic - it is bad. So with this project we would like to attract attention of young people to the topic of media asceticism - reasonable usage of technologies. Because only by stopping being in touch all the time, person can hear own thoughts, focus on himself and loved ones, and not only on what is happening around. Objectives of the project are: 1) To involve participants in conscious choice of gadget usage; 2) To gain experience, knowledge and good practice of being offline in order to “hear” own thoughts, focus on themselves and close people instead of what happens around; 3) To discover together with participants how much more useful things they can do if not distract; 4) To engage youngsters with indoor and outdoor art and sport activities in daily life; 5) To enhance participant’s intercultural awareness and expression through discovery of new cultures, habits and lifestyles.
