IN BETWEEN? OPEN CALL FOR APPLICATIONS

European Network Remembrance and Solidarity is launching a recruitment process
for an ongoing educational project called In Between?, which aims to encourage the young
generation of Europeans to explore 20th-century history by speaking with those who lived it.
Participants are given a unique opportunity to gain theoretical and practical experience in
documenting oral stories.

This time, participants will travel to Rijeka in Croatia and to Slovak-Czech borderland. The
call for applications closes on 7 May 2018.

The call is open to all candidates age 18-25, including students and freelancers representing various
areas of interest that may include history, cultural anthropology, sociology and audiovisual arts, among
others. After being selected, they will take part in interdisciplinary workshops on 9-12 July and study
visits on 13-19 July 2018.
After 4-day workshops in Warsaw participants will have learned the theoretical basics of interview
methodology, digital video-camera operation, photography, digitalisation of visual materials, archiving
and historical context. Then, they will be divided into groups of six to travel to border towns and other
localities for seven days. During their stay they will conduct and document interviews with local
inhabitants. Recollections, sound and video recordings, photographs, letters as well as scanned
documents and other items reflecting the daily life of the communities will constitute a basis for
building accounts of their travel that will be shared with historical institutions and local archives.
Factors to be considered in the recruitment process include a candidate’s motivation to participate in
the project, openness and readiness to cooperate. Knowledge of English and one of the languages
spoken in a selected region is a must.
