LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT AND STATE GOVERNMENT PROJECTS
These are state regional programs supported by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism of Ukraine, Ministry
of Education, Youth and Sports of Ukraine and local authorities with the aid of international grant
programs. Within the program of the Open Lviv 2016 we intend to implement three strategic projects,
which are necessary for qualitative changes in the cultural field of the city and region.
Library 2017 Project
Type of Dialogue: society, education
Date: Winter 2012 - Autumn 2017
Place: Lviv, Lviv region
The project aims to transform public libraries into the key basis of regional culture infrastructure. We
believe libraries have to become information and communication centers, important cores to enhance
cultural development of local communities. The urgent tasks are: to update and upgrade human resources,
financial and technical positions of libraries. There are over 1000 libraries in Lviv region, most
of them are located in rural areas. Thus, the problem becomes particularly complex and expensive and
requires the involvement of both local and state budgets and international funds and organizations. To
meet these needs we are determined to introduce within the context of the Open Lviv 2016 project special
state regional program “Library-2017”. The program is open for any municipal or regional library.
It will be coordinated by a non-profit institution, specially created for that purposes. The problem of
expansion and upgrading library facilities, as well as the restructuring of the library system is of the
local authorities competence.
Museum and Pedagogy
Type of Dialogue: society, education
Date: Winter 2012 - Autumn 2017.
Place: Lviv, Lviv region
The Lviv city and regional museums have hard-crusted problems that are based on their conservative
style of activity that keeps visitors and especially children at a critically unacceptable distance from art.
The project is striving for the revitalization of museums as living and attractive places/areas for young
people to get knowledge and to entertain. In our mind one of the museum’s mission is to complement
emotionally and aesthetically the education processes. The project is addressed to preschool children,
seniors and people with disabilities.
Distance Learning - Culture & Art History
Type of Dialogue: society, education
Date: Winter 2012 - Autumn 2017.
Place: Lviv, Lviv region
School education in Ukraine is lopsidedly focused on physical sciences, ie., computer science, mathematics,
physics, chemistry and social sciences at the expense of art, ethics, aesthetics, in short everything
that is related to culture. As a result young people, already generations of them, are unable
to perceive art, neither classical nor contemporary one. One of the urgent problems is also the lack of
adequately trained teachers able to teach the history of culture and art at a proper level using interesting
methodology and modern technology.
