ORGANISERS VISION BOOKLET
Litomyšl 2021 23rd National Selection Conference of EYP Czech Republic
Dear Organisers, One of the things our National Committee has always taken pride in is the high quality of our Selection Conferences in terms of both the academic and organisational side. Therefore, it is one of our aims to uphold the quality while improving certain session elements and bringing in new innovative ideas. As the Head Organisers, we strive to create and provide a memorable experience for all of the participants. This year’s session main theme is transition, which could be understood as either the transition from being a Delegate to being an Official or the change that comes in the ‘post-EYP life’. With our motto ‘Preparing yourself for the first step into the unknown’, we would like for all the participants to reflect on themselves and further develop personally and professionally in order to be ‘prepared and ready’ for the next chapters of their lives. As the Head Organisers of the 23rd National Conference of EYP CZ Litomyšl 2021, we wanted to have a motto that would speak both to the more experienced members of this network and the Delegates at the session. In order to make the working process more efficient and to transform the team into a well-bonded family, we decided to accept only Czech-speaking EYPers. This decision has been made to mainly provide everybody with the feeling of maximum comfort and inclusiveness while increasing the effectiveness and full potential of the team. What we would like to emphasise at this session is self-awareness, inter-team bonding and cooperation, we value hard work and original ideas that could push our session a little bit further. We, as the Head Organisers of the session, believe that our Organisers have as much to offer us as we have to them. We are looking for reliable, dedicated, enthusiastic and communicative individuals who would take an interest in joining our team! We are looking forward to your applications, in case of any questions do not hesitate to contact us at nguyenv@eyp.cz or sustr@eyp.cz. Yours truly, Vanessa and Martin Head Organisers of NSC Litomyšl 2021 2
