The Flying Carpet - Intercultural Encounter. Host Kristín Vilhjálmsdóttir

This Icelandic/Danish project is a creative and practical tool to promote mutual respect and understanding between participants of all ages through different means of expressions. Each and everyone‘s personal story and culture is point of departure for the encounter. The emphasis is to not only work with aspects of national culture or backgrounds, but also individual interests and those things that matter the most in each and every person’s life.

At the workshop an introduction to the project will be given as well as a practical involvement of the participants.

The Flying Carpet is a project where everyone involved should be received with acknowledgement. The cultural interaction, that takes place at the intercultural encounter, should encourage the view that diverse cultures and ways of living life make us richer, rather than seeing it as a cause for conflict. Participants get an opportunity to introduce their cultures in an open and dynamic perspective and their strengths and interests in a fun and lively way.

What makes you flourish?

At the encounter the physical frames are a bit like a „market“ and participants have their own table/space where they mediate to others whatever makes them proud, what they are good at, their favourite things, places, people and other things they wish to communicate to others about themselves and their strengths.

The slogan of the project is:

When an individual gets to flourish it’s more likley that society or the group flourishes as well.

We would kindly ask everybody attending the workshop to bring 1-3 personal things or something that is important for you (photos, favourite books, music, film etc.).

Instructor and creator of the project: Kristín R. Vilhjálmsdóttir

By implementing the The Flying Carpet in the teaching students, parents and staff members get an opportunity to introduce their culture and interests in a fun and lively way within an encouraging environment.

The emphasis is to not only work with aspects of national culture or backgrounds, but also individual interests and those things that matter the most in each and every person's life.

The project should promote mutual respect and understanding between people in a concrete way and through different means of expressions. Everyone involved is received with acknowledgement, and through the cultural interaction that takes place the goal is to help developing life-skills that foster the view that diversity makes us richer, rather than seeing it as a cause for conflict.

Each individual is a participant and a spectator at the same time.

The Flying Carpet should create:

Frames in which different cultures meet in mutual respect and understanding through different means of expression; interaction between all cultures and all languages. This includes the world languages, both spoken and non-verbal ones.

Enthusiasm and understanding of differences and similarities in our cultures.

A frame in which individual children can preserve their cultural identity when coming into contact with a new society.

Awareness of the value of own culture by introducing it to others.

The goals are also:

That people of all origin should feel proud of their own culture and share those feelings with others.

To evolve children's ability to be active members in society and for them to realize the fact that different cultures can enrich their own.

Support a respectful integration.

Stimulate the children's fantasy, curiosity and creativity.

During the development of The Flying Carpet project an effort is made to make everybody involved feel an ownership to the project, children as well as adults. The experience is that through this project parents participate during the process and teachers often meet new faces among the parents at the gathering itself.

Kristín R. Vilhjálmsdóttir, intercultural project manager at Reykjavik City Library and educator, created The Flying Carpet after many years of experience as a teacher in Denmark and brought it to Iceland at the beginning of 2008. An introduction to the intercultural encounters project can be booked and if requested the project manager is ready to guide and take part in the preparation of the project. Workplaces can also book intercultural encounters - everyone can take part.

My future school

subtitle: past – present – future. Host Keilir

Through a series of hands-on activites participants will  work with their ideas on education in the past, present and most importantly the future. Basic ideas on the student and those components that affect the study process are reviewed and participants are urged to cogitate their own views regarding ideas that will be presented. The work will take place in varied group setting where the focus is on finding a common ground as well as individual tasks where each participant develops their own thoughts on the concept of the future student and the study process. The workshop combines hands-on activites and creative concept work in a group discussion both present and online – all in connection with the why and how on education for sustainable development and global citizenship.

Citizens of the future. Host Tryggvi Thayer

In this workshop we will explore the concept of citizenship and, in particular, what citizenship might look like in the future. We will examine how citizenship has been portrayed in science fiction literature, movies, and television series to assess some of the challenges to our present understanding of the concept and how it might evolve over the next few decades. Finally, we will try to determine the essential aspects of citizenship in the future and consider how our educational institutions can begin to prepare us to be active and effective citizens of the future. The workshop will include group discussions, role-playing activities, and elements of design-thinking to facilitate and promote creative forward-looking ways of addressing challenges in the present.

Participants are strongly encouraged to be prepared to share examples of portrayals of future citizenship that they have, or will, come across before the start of the workshop.

Some questions that participants in the workshop will address:

1. What are the essential elements of citizenship in the future?

2. Who/what is eligible for citizenship in the future?

3. If we start altering our bodies/biology, at what point would we no longer be considered a citizen?

4. Of what are we citizens in the future?

And the key question: What do we need to learn to prepare ourselves to be citizens of the future?

Instructor and creator of the project: Tryggvi Thayer
