The aim of the project is to develop skills and professional networks which will help improve working conditions for Ukrainian musicians, as well as strengthen their export capacity, thereby promoting trade within the EU.
Challenges include young musicians struggling to find funding for professional recordings, promo materials and videos. Furthermore, they often lack basic knowledge on how to promote themselves, negotiate with partners and network in professional settings.
The project will train young Ukrainian talents in jazz, folk and world music through a capacity-building programme. The idea is to help them to develop a better understanding of the skills needed to develop a sustainable international career during and after war times. Activities include seminars, workshops and individual coaching sessions.
