Objectives:

The European Pub Quiz was our main event in the Time to Move campaign. Pub Quiz is a popular form of entertainment in recent years even among young people. For contestants were prepared five thematic circuit – newsreel and mobilities, music, european culture, identification of european city and european cuisine.Whole event was rather informal, and due to this, the age differences between high school students and older participants were blurred. 37 contestants were divided into 9 teams – 5 teams of high school students and 4 combinated students and working people.In the following days we received positive reactions so we want to organise this form of fun regularly in Plzeň and in other towns.

Why the project was: empowering young people, adapting to changing realities, or thinking out of the box:

•Informal event • Out-of-school activity •New form of education •Mix of fun and knowledge •New hobby, maybe •Interesting form of fun

How the project was inclusive:

Logo of the European Year of Youth was placed on all our promo materials. At the start of the event we have to thank the Czech department of Eurodesk for providing us the opportunity to organise other beautiful events for young people and for support. All prize packages were gathered from promo materials of EYY and Eurodesk. At the venue was placed „Eurodesk infopoint“.

Green aspect:

Promotion ran mostly on our Facebook website and via our contacts on local schools and universities. Paper leaflets were only as an addition (ca. 80 pcs at university departments).
