The FIRST Project aims to create a new professional figure capable of representing Foundations at both national and international levels, and to build an interactive and supportive network across Europe to secure new funds for financing new activities at a European level.
The result will be a sort of “Promoter 4.0” for Foundations who, through an innovative training path combining storytelling, fundraising, and digital literacy, will be equipped with the practical skills necessary to create not only financial but also cultural and social value.
Goals
First, the creation of a new professional profile capable of applying fundraising, networking, and communication techniques such as storytelling, to support foundations in redefining their identity, promoting their activities internationally, and strengthening their capacity for collaboration;
Secondly, thanks to the implementation of a database of best practices and contacts, in the form of an interactive map, the target groups will be able to interact with each other, sharing information and knowledge and launching collaborative projects.
