AEGEE-Toulouse told us that “t<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">his RTC is one of the only events that will take place in France this year, it happens before important elections for us, so it is a great occasion to discuss\u00a0the importance of Europe in French people’s life.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have 15 participants, our members will host them to allow the fee not to be too huge (because hostels\u00a0are incredibly expensive in Toulouse).\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We really want to make this RTC unforgettable: we willl be chasing a treasure during our visit of Toulouse.\u00a0The sessions will be, among others, about how to organise local events such as\u00a0the European Student Festival of AEGEE-Toulouse, and about EVS!”. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-39611 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/www.zeus.aegee.org\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/LVIV-300x198.jpg\" alt=\"LVIV\" width=\"395\" height=\"261\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zeus.aegee.org\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/LVIV-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zeus.aegee.org\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/LVIV-768x506.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zeus.aegee.org\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/LVIV-1024x675.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.zeus.aegee.org\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/LVIV.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 395px) 100vw, 395px\" \/>In addition,\u00a0AEGEE-Lviv said RTCs are\u00a0also an opportunity to create strong relationships between antennae from different countries that are\u00a0part of the same Network. “Since we have become one network with Polish antennae, we planned to organise a regional event. By evaluating the abilities of our antennae we decided that an RTC would be the best option. Together with the other locals, we decided that the HR topic would be the most interesting for everyone.\u00a0D<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ue to a lack of applications, however, we decided that we would organise an\u00a0LTC for our members and invite foreigners to it. We will make typical LTC sessions, but HR will still be a leading topic.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\nRTCs are\u00a0also an amazing way to became closer to another antenna. For instance, AEGEE-Firenze and AEGEE-Pi<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sa have decided to organise an RTC together. “We decided to apply for hosting an RTC because both the boards of AEGEE-Pisa and AEGEE-Firenze knew that the new members needed an opportunity to learn more about AEGEE, the possibility to join the board, organise international events and the overall structure of the association.”\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They also gave us some spoilers about their programme: “We will start with a double session about the structure of AEGEE: one for the newbies, one for more advanced members.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then we will talk about the organisation of European events, teamwork and conflict resolution.\u00a0<\/span>The next session will be about managing a local: recruiting, fundraising, how to organise thematic activities and management of a local in general.<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-39612 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.zeus.aegee.org\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/firenze_panoramica-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"firenze_panoramica\" width=\"223\" height=\"167\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zeus.aegee.org\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/firenze_panoramica-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zeus.aegee.org\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/firenze_panoramica-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zeus.aegee.org\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/firenze_panoramica.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 223px) 100vw, 223px\" \/>The “European events organisation” workshop will be held by AEGEE-Pisa founder, honorary member of AEGEE-Firenze and current member of Les Anciens Paolo Santoni: “This is going to be a huge opportunity for all the participants.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But let’s talk about the serious stuff: the programme will be filled with\u00a0the Regional Night (which, with all the nationalities of the participants, will actually be a real EN) and we are organising games and party also for the second night\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p><em>Written by Paola Letizia Murru, AEGEE-Cagliari<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"excerpt\">It is already that magical season of the year!
