Project Summary

In this project we have learned about the issues of unemployment and discrimination. In order to learn about these subjects we have attended a workshop by career specialist Ülle Soonik and we have made discussions about these issues. The final product of the project has been a movie about unemployment and discrimination.

The first day the French group traveled from Tallinn to Hiiumaa and the Estonians were waiting for them in Kalana. We played some games to get to know each other and to learn our likes, dislikes and goals in this project.

In the morning of the second day we traveled around Hiiumaa: we visited the sightseeing of Hiumaa and we had lunch at Soera Farm. In the evening we went to Sauna and we swam in the sea.

Ülle came on the third day and she talked about the themes of the project and we played some games. In the afternoon we started to think about ideas for the film and at night we watched an Estonian movie called Mina Olin Siin.

On the fourth day we went hiking to the Ristna RMK house and the people who works there showed us things brought from the sea. In the afternoon we went to Randmae and some of us swam on the sea and then we learned African dance and several games. In the evening there was a concert. Also this day the French girls did African hairstyles.

The next day we designed t-shirts with the logo of the project. This day we had a visit from the National agency. In the afternoon we started filming the movie and in the evening the French cooked a traditional French apple cake.

On the 14th we worked on the movie and learned dances from the French group.

The next morning we started preparing for the afternoon Café in Kärdla: we prepared cakes and African food. Then we went shopping in Kärdla and in the way back we stopped at Torvanina where some of us swimmed.

Yesterday we finished the movie and in the afternoon we talked about the things that we have learned during the project. Then, in the evening, we went to Sauna again and did a barbeque.

Finally today we talked about the plan to do a project in France next year and we prepared our trip to Tallinn tomorrow where we are meeting a student from Hiiumaa who works in Tallinn and visiting the old town.
