REC is based on the use of experimental filmmaking to empower disadvantaged young people and prevent violence situations from bullying to gender-based violence. Why experimental video? Because it is a powerful, attractive and innovative artistic medium, that can be matched by few, if any, other art forms in terms of communicative potential. Why violence/bullying? Because violence occurs in all countries, there are no exceptions and young disadvantaged people are at greater risk of it. It is estimated that 246 million of children and adolescents experience violence every year (UNESCO, 2016).REC will transfer a program, given its proven success in Spain, to Italy, Germany, Indonesia and Kenya from where 75 young people will become experimental Filmmakers. Our main goals are:- To empower young people and prevent situations of harassment and violence through experimental films creations, which in addition, will give them voice- To equip other organizations with training methods, firstly to prevent violence, but also to improve learning of other topics- To enhance young people’s competences and skills in different fields smoothing their way to employmentTo reach such as important objectives REC will organize a sophisticated 2 year-transfer plan, which will allow partners’ organizations to implement the programme and integrate it into their daily activities. REC project will start with the Inaugural Meeting and the Training of Youth Workers; in this initial training, participants will get in touch with the existing program to be able to adapt it to their target groups’ needs.Since violence is a common issue in all partners' countries and experimental films have one clear goal: do not leave anyone indifferent, we have combined them into a training programme to transfer violence to fiction. During the programme itself, 25 experimental films (5 per country) will be produced, split into the following five film series (sub-topics): - Bullying and power imbalance (INTRAS)- Cyberbullying: hostility without boarders (CJD)- Gender-based violence: controlling and neglecting (CESIE)- Physical violence: Tormented and tormenting others (DEJAVATO)- Indifference, invisibility and isolation (ITF)To support the transfer of knowledge REC project will also include 3 volunteering services in Spain, Italy or Germany and organize an awarness campaign with local Exhibitions and Festivals, a Youth Exchange: “The REC International Experimental Video Fest” in Indonesia and a set of tools to allow that external organizations could also apply the programme: “The REC Filmmakers Guide”, The Documentary Film and the 25 Experimental Films already produced.
