The group of young people from the labour insertion and community action project Ocupa’tBCN will participate in a Speed networking with people from the gastronomic sector of Barcelona.
Next June 28 we have an appointment at 10:30 AM at the Cruïlla School-Bar-Restaurant at the Point , where a group of young people from the North Zone will present the videos made this year for the Ocupa’tBCN project. On this occasion, in addition to knowing the skills of the participants, we will also make a visual tour of the training process and the recipes elaborated in the cooking workshops. As is traditional, we invite you to taste incredible tapas, specially prepared for the occasion, by the same group of young people.
But it does not end there, this year we have incorporated three more activities to the final presentation of the project that we usually do. First of all, there will be a conversation to talk about the relationship EDUCATION + COMMUNICATION + GASTRONOMY, by Juanfran Carrasco, from PES Salesians Crossroads Sant Jordi, centre in charge of training young people in cooking and hospitality, Alfredo Cohen, director of elParlante, from where we provide tools for assertive communication and relational marketing, and Alvaro Arrieta, Campus of Tourism, Hospitality and Gastronomy CETT of the University of Barcelona, who advises the group of young people in the preparation and presentation of the tapas that we will taste this Friday.
We will also have a table of experiences in social and solidarity economy, specialized in gastronomy, composed of three expert entities in the field such as Diomcoop , XaREc/La Sargantana and Cruïlla al Punt.
The icing on the cake will be the speednetworking space that we have designed so that, in a few minutes, young people who want it can relate and interact with people from the gastronomic world who could become their next employers. The idea is to create a space of trust so that the group of young people Ocupa’tBCN extend a little more prepared to face a job interview and lose the fear to talk about themselves and their culinary abilities.
To whet your appetite, we leave you the most valued recipe on our YouTube Channel of the Busy Promotion’BCN 2018 : A Catalan trinxat in the style of Verónica and Victor. If you want to know more about the project, be sure to visit the website.
See you on Friday 28th at 10:30 at Cruïlla al Punt, in the North Zone!
