KERI - Project
The Keri Project will contribute to the support of traditional, but currently declining, rural crafts and skills by recording,
demonstrating and teaching them to others. In most countries those who have the knowledge of traditional skills are
"older" and therefore in many cases there is an urgency to capture as many of these talents before this generation dies.
Our aim is to capture and record at least one “skill” from each country, creating possible groups of skilled people who
could provide mentoring and assist with training future generations.
Furthermore we aim at compiling all the various methods and possibilities that are used in the participating countries to
pass and teach these crafts and skills. Learners will be part of the project process by feeding back how they would like to
learn (time of day, venue, and length of session) and they will be invited to show their new talents and participate
actively in the final exhibition or product. The project will invite a number of rural organisations, which have access to
learners from different socio- economic groups (ex offenders, travellers …)
Finally there is a joint product such as a DVD or a pictorial display with can be shown in each country or a Website.
