Cultural BEES is a Creative Europe project aiming to develop and implement a training program and digital toolkit that support the promotion of entrepreneurship skills in the Cultural and Creative Industry among youth. Inspired by the Junior Achievement training model “Inspire-Prepare-Succeed“, the project is aimed at providing the target groups, 15–18-year-old students and 18-30 year old young people, with the necessary skills, knowledge, and tools to succeed in their careers within the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCI) sector.

To improve learning and development with an emphasis on digital skills, the project CulturalBees works for the creation of opportunities for innovation and growth on local, national, EU and international levels through a new innovative curriculum for Cultural and Creative Industries & Cultural Heritage to imagine participatory, usable, scalable, and replicable business models for young professionals. Cultural BEES aims to improve learning and development for young people in the cultural heritage and creative industries sector, by facilitating co-working groups for the enhancement of relevant learning curricula and connecting stakeholders with the CCI industry.

On June 6, as part of the project Cultural BEES, the University of Nova Gorica is organizing the National Ecosystem Forum in Nova Gorica and online. The Ecosystem forum is an open dialogue with educational bodies, decision-makers, and policymakers to facilitate coworking groups and enhance relevant learning curricula.

University of Nova Gorica invites you to contribute to the google questionnaire  (in English or Slovene) to provide feedback about the state of the art of the Cultural and Creative Industries as applied to cultural heritage preservation in Slovenia.
