PROMOTION OF ETHNO-CREATIVITY

Coordinators: Ružica Rudić Vranić & Jozefa Skenderović

"Small School of Business" organized by Femina Creativa was attended also by several women who are engaged in manufacturing objects and pictures of strew, an ethnic-technique characteristic for the Northern Bačka region. Many women earn for living using this technique, but the earned sum is not adequate to the time and work invested, which happens very often with other ethnic-authors.

Due to these facts a need of an organized educative and promotional program of constant activities was invented with the topic:

Ethnic-creativity as a means of tradition preserving and as a means of self-employment

Besides the artistic trait, the aim of the activities is not only to give a qualitative and an adequate support to entrepreneurial orientation, but also to point out the need of exchange of successful cultural achievements and to make people think of ethnic-creativity as a possibility of self-employment and marketing of manufactured goods. It is also a way to shape the image of a country, based on tradition and preservation of particularities.
