2. Background of the Programme European Union-Eastern Partnership Culture Programme 2015-2018 aims at further strengthening cultural policies, particularly the Cultural and Creative Sectors, and to strengthen the capacities of the culture sector and the culture operators in the EaP countries. It also aims to increase the links between public institutions and private actors and to include civil society in the decision-making process, thus enhancing the role of culture as a driving-force for reform, promotion of inter-cultural dialogue and social cohesion. The Programme consists of four main components: (1) Strengthening national capacities in evidence-based policy, (2) Capacity-building in support of modernisation and reform in the cultural sector, (3) Development of international collaboration opportunities and partnerships including through participation in the EU's new major grants programme Creative Europe and (4) Communications and visibility strategy. The Programme is administered by a consortium led by the British Council with its partners: The Soros Foundation-Moldova, The National Centre for Culture of Poland, and the Goethe-Institut. A Technical Advisory Team based in Kyiv runs the day-to-day management of the Programme with a team of six Country Coordinators. 3. Assignment Objectives With current call the Programme is looking for expert speakers for the National Cultural Forum in Armenia. The working title of the Forum is “Creative Armenia Forum”. The dates of the event will be June 9-11, 2017. The forum will be a meeting point for key stake-holders in Armenia that are focusing on developing creative industries and fostering cultural and creative spill-overs to other areas of life. While culture and heritage has always played an important role in Armenia, the awareness about the potential of creativity in developing the country and bring about economic growth and create jobs is generally low. The forum will address these issues not only from theoretical, but also very practical way. The aims of the forum are to promote creativity and culture as a tool for improving lives in Armenia; prepare a roadmap for developing creative industries in Armenia; promote the entrepreneurial mindset and give tools and techniques to help creative professionals to start new projects or small businesses; and help the most innovative start-ups with mentorship support to go from idea to viable business model. The event consists of two parts. Creative Armenia Forum: One-day forum brings together key stakeholders, including policy makers, cultural and creative operators, representatives of regions and local municipalities, business development centres, educational institutions, representatives from other sectors. The forum aims to draft recommendations for developing creative industries in Armenia, a supportive ecosystem for creative businesses and encouraging spill-overs with other industries. The Forum will involve around 60-70 participants. Armenian Creative Business Challenge: The two-day program provides a framework to design, test and build a creative business quickly. The goal is to drive the team into the marketplace. The program will allow participants to experience how members of the start-up team work together and how well they execute their business model. The Challenge will last over the weekend and end with presentations of the teams. The expert speakers will introduce the latest trends and developments in the sphere of creative industries and creative entrepreneurship, they will share good practices from the European Union countries. The experts will highlight different ways how to bridge culture, creativity, entrepreneurship and innovation. 4. Assignment Scope, Role for Expert and Main Deliverables
