• Working with Older Volunteers in Manual Intergenerational Projects The international cooking project also required preparations beforehand in order to make the project week a success: inquiries regarding recipes and necessary ingredients, setup of menus for the German kitchen, barbecue day, initial thoughts on the buffet for the final ceremony, exploring the kitchen and its devices, talks with the domestic management, compilation of shopping lists and the shopping itself, copies of recipes for all kitchen teams. The tasks of the international cooking project were organised as follows: six senior citizens made up four internationally mixed groups with 2-3 pupils each. The dishes were separated onto four stove hobs and prepared according to recipes. A service providing drinks and cakes/sandwiches for the workers (pavilion beach volleyball course) was organised. Each day, the setting of tables and the arrangement of the buffet took place at 12:30 pm. German food was served on Monday, Czech food on Tuesday and French food on Wednesday. A joint barbecue took place on Thursday and a final buffet was organised for the Friday. The exchange in Vigy • Woodworks: renovation of a wooden fence (height approx. 80 cm, align, fixate, polish, varnish…) • Gardening: layout of flower bed at the entrance of the premises and layout of an herb bed, surrounded by a mesh of hazelnut twigs, for the restaurant. A coach from the local centre assisted the group. Setup of a plant barrier (visual screen). • Repair of a boule site (basic site already existed) and layout of marginal plants. • Masonry: Cut stones (sandstone), manufacture according to drafts, e.g. sundial, orientation table. Two masons assisted Exchange Vigy, working with cut stones • the group of around 10 participants and provided the materials. Fabric work: handicraft with different materials, silk painting, welcome greetings in several languages and the corresponding flags. A coach from the local centre assisted the group.

TRAMP – Transnational Mobility of Older People in Europe The best thing about the trip to France was the companionship and the companionship with people from other countries, and that we worked together and also that we got to know another culture and existing differences. We learned how the elderly live in France and the Czech Republic and what their situation is like. This improves the knowledge of human nature. Regarding the communication, there were some difficulties in the beginning and at first everyone tended to stay in their own little group, but over the course of time they tended to mix more and more. We either communicated using our hands and feet or with the help of someone who spoke a little German. All of that worked pretty well. We definitely came closer to Europe. And the children probably learned from the experience of working with people from other cultures. We would definitely go again and we think it would make sense by all means to expand such projects. Theo Risse and Winfried Kaiser, Hamm, participants in Metz The exchange in Prague • Interior decoration of the nursery Eliška – the elderly and pupils of the primary school coated and painted the walls together. Result: nicer atmosphere in the nursery. • Construction and repair of benches and tables at KLAS, decoration of the garden and construction of a boule site. Result: improved environment for leisure activities of the elderly. • Setup of benches in the school garden: polishing and varnishing wood, assembly of benches, positioning and encasing in concrete, works on the surrounding. • Securing the KLAS premises – building of a fence around the KLAS building. Result: increased protection and more aesthetically pleasing appearance. 32 Part 1 • Renovation works on KLAS building – the fence, main door and windows were repainted (originally not planned – this was initiated by German seniors). Result: increased lifetime and more aesthetically pleasing appearance. • Design of puppets for UNICEF, silk painting and tiffany works. Result: products for the UNICEF stall and support of child vaccinations in Africa. All project works were completed by the end of the exchange week and presented during the final ceremony. The concept of encouraging communication between people with different native languages in a manual work context despite a lack of foreign language skills has proved to be a success. This was also indicated by the participants themselves during interviews and in the evaluation questionnaires. On the one hand this is due to the fact that manual work activities usually do not require a very complex theoretical context. Most of the information can be communicated in a non-verbal manner. On the other hand, as one participant put it, it is ‘craftsmanship international’. The participants enjoyed the selected project work, which contributed to an open atmosphere and promoted communication processes. In an interview one of the participants of l’outil en main said: “I really enjoy passing my knowledge on to adolescents. Many of them were completely alien to manual work. One of the adolescents told me he could picture himself working in this kind of profession after he left school.” Almost all participants evaluated the workshops as informative, varied and versatile. Most of them thought the workshops in Hamm, Oberhausen and Prague were well-organised. The final exchange in Prague received the best evaluation. The
