Projeto EIRA

O projeto EIRA pretende promover a transição verde, unindo nesse objetivo os setores cultural e criativo. As três fases que estruturam o projeto – COLHEITA, EXPOSIÇÃO E TRANSFORMAÇÃO e RECOMEÇO – envolvem a comunidade e as organizações parceiras na recolha de práticas sustentáveis, visando a criação de novos produtos através das artes. As prioridades definidas fortalecem a identidade, coesão territorial, inovação e sustentabilidade, capacitando os jovens para os desafios da economia verde.

Objetivos

Preserving Heritage, Empowering Communities

Promover e valorizar expressões culturais imateriais, garantindo sua preservação, divulgação e desenvolvimento contínuo, adaptando-as ao contexto contemporâneo.

Fomentar a diversidade étnica e cultural, promover a inclusão social e a igualdade de gênero, fortalecer a cidadania e melhorar a qualidade de vida das populações locais.

Phases

O projeto desenvolve-se ao longo de dois anos, estruturado em três fases e envolvendo a participação ativa de toda a equipa e das parcerias estabelecidas.

Phase I – Harvest

Through conversations with the community, research will be conducted on the origins and evolution of traditions, to be documented in the form of media records — agricultural materials/instruments, sustainable practices, dances and songs (lyrics), soundscapes (voice, instruments, “cantigas ao desafio”), harvest stages and associated traditions (singing, corn-husking gatherings, social encounters), and harvest time.

Phase II – Exhibition and Transformation

This is the phase in which the harvest showcase is presented to the community (in the form of videos, sounds, objects, photographs, testimonies, etc.) through various activities (co-design sessions, workshops, dramatizations, dances, performances, concerts, etc.), fostering new insights into interconnections with the past and highlighting its deepest and most authentic qualities. These activities allow, in a first instance, the creation of new products, beginning with the EIRA Toolkit, a resource with a strong digital and dematerialized component. The EIRA Toolkit defines the framework for the development of the EIRA Installation and the EIRA Workshops.

Phase III – New Beginning

Following Phase II, and taking into account the outcomes of the workshops in particular, the EIRA Artistic Residencies will be established, during which all elements to be included in the EIRA Exhibition — documenting the EIRA project — and the EIRA Performances will be developed and prepared.

Specific Activities

Phase I

Harvest of Conversations

Harvest of Sounds and Movements

Harvest of Stories

Harvest of Knowledge and Memories

Phase II
  • Co-design Sessions: the multimedia collection produced in Phase I of the project is presented to a representative group of potential end users (MiNC Youth Theatre Group, Culture for All Group, artistic team, and other relevant stakeholders) who collaboratively select part of the harvest (Phase I) that may serve as the basis for the creation of a Toolkit. This instrument will guide the definition and structure of the EIRA installations and the planning of the workshops.
  • EIRA Installation and EIRA Workshops: the implementation of workshops, based on the EIRA Toolkit, with community members and performers, through which the materials documented in Phase I will be explored using the vocabulary of contemporary dance and music. The final product resulting from this collective identity that is intended to be fostered will support the definition of the EIRA Artistic Residencies in Phase III.
Phase III
  • EIRA Artistic Residencies: five artistic residencies will be carried out, one non-public and four open to the community. The residencies will enable the development of the entire choreographic process, the search for inspiration, and the creation of new ideas in collaboration with young people, artists from various disciplines, critics, and civil society organizations.
  • EIRA Exhibition and EIRA Performances: the central activity of this phase is the production of the EIRA exhibition and performance, which carry a strong contemporary character and serve as the focal point of the symbiotic relationship between agricultural communities, their culture, and the land, giving voice to sustainable practices and the importance of balanced natural resource management.
