CALL FOR ORGANISERS – BRNO 2017 The Organising Team of Brno 2017 – 85th International Session of the European Youth Parliament is happy to launch a call for Organisers!
THE SESSION For more than a year, we have been developing and shaping the vision of Brno 2017. Ideas and thoughts have been forming into an event and its parts, and the core pillars of the vision of the session – encouraging active citizenship, strengthening common European goals and values, and promoting Central Europe – have been established. Main venues have been secured and a tentative programme outlined. Out of a simple vision – to organise an International Session – an event has been shaped: Brno 2017.
THE TEAM The team of Brno 2017 is currently comprised of the Head Organisers, the Core Team members and the Organisers. There are five core areas in which Organisers will be divided throughout the preparation process – Finance, Programme, Participants, Venues, and Public Relations (PR). Each team is led by one Core Team member. Prior the session, the Organising Team will be working on different tasks in their portfolios and partly on fundraising. Any Organiser can also become an Event Head Organiser, for example of the Euroconcert, the Welcome Evenings, the Opening Ceremony, etc. Closer to the session, more on-thespot tasks will be allocated and the structure of the team will be modified to fit the current needs better. We want Brno 2017 to be a great experience not only for participants, for our Organisers. Our aim is to enable those who show enthusiasm and initiative to join the team even if lacking significant organising experience. We also strive for providing flexibility regarding roles, ideas, and used methods, so that anyone can follow their own passion.
THE CALL We are currently looking for new members of the Organising Team – enthusiastic and motivated individuals who would join the team, reflect the vision, breathe life into the event, and help to make it unforgettable. The call is open for both Czech and international Organisers, however, please do bear in mind that we cannot guarantee a full travel reimbursement to organising meetings at the moment.
