MIHR theatre’s engagement in the project: Shoghakat MLKE-Galstyan was a local project coordinator.
An exchange between young art educators from Switzerland and from countries of the South Caucasus in a cooperation between the University of Art Zurich, Switzerland, Armenian State Pedagogical University and ‘’artasfoundation’’.
The main goal of the project is to promote the exchange between young people from two different cultural backgrounds. In the Art Matters project, prospective young art teachers, educated in Universities in Switzerland and the South Caucasus, come together for an exchange; the first one between students from Zurich and Suchum/i, the second one and third one between Zurich and Yerevan. In each exchange, the participants discuss didactic and methodological issues with the local tutors and lecture in short internships in the local schools. In addition, representatives of the different city’s school authorities meet to discuss their working contexts and options for action and future perspectives.
