Podcasters Expert Training Workshop
November 10 - November 12
We are happy to announce the call for the Podcasters Expert Training Workshop in The Hague, the Netherlands. The training will take place from November 11 until November 12 2024, with November 10 as the day of early arrivals. We will soon be sharing the programme and more details.
About the Project
In partnership with Terraforming, Intercultural Institute Timișoara, and the Arolsen Archives, EuroClio is leading the project Facts Not Fiction – Young Historians Show How to Learn from the Past. This project is addressed to history educators, museum educators, podcasters, graphic novelists, and other professionals in the field of memorialisation. The aim is to train students and youth groups to research local histories of persecution during the Nazi era and develop their own end products based on these findings. Among the students’ creations are a podcast, a graphic novel, a heritage tour and an exhibition.
Who are we looking for?
For this particular event, we are looking for podcasters with a strong focus on the Second World War. Those interested in the history of totalitarianism, the Holocaust memorial, and mid-20th century histories of migration and persecution should apply. However, those with little background in the Second World War as well as those with experience in other related areas are also encouraged to submit an application.
By providing their expertise, podcasters will be able to assist in students’ local history projects. Podcasters will be invited to work on the script of different animations that we are developing in order to show students how to make a podcast.
How can you apply to join us?
Please send us a letter of motivation detailing your interest in the training, including an explanation of relevant projects you have worked on. Please also attach a copy of your CV and send both to eugenie@euroclio.eu.
Who can apply?
Based on project partners, this opportunity is intended for individuals residing in Germany, Serbia, the Netherlands, Romania, and Finland.
The main objectives of the Podcasters Expert Training are:
Build the capacity of professional podcasters that produce public history in the field of Holocaust history and education
Foster peer-learning among professional podcasters
Develop educational animations for young people in order to show how podcasts can be used as a tool to produce public history
What is covered?
EuroClio will cover all expenses related to your travel to/from The Hague, including accommodation and subsistence costs. The day of arrivals will be November 10 and the workshop will end on November 12 in the afternoon. Therefore, two nights of accommodation will be provided.
