Accentuate

New work will be produced, exhibited and celebrated in creative collaboration with international artists and networks and presented to young people through a series of workshop and outreach events.

This project is being delivered by Creative Junction and is a distinct Accentuate project but is also part of another initiative called Create, Compete and Collaborate (CCC). This is a groundbreaking ambition, which aims to ensure that:

‘Every young person in the South East has the opportunity to participate in a project with another young person from a competitor country between now and 2012.’

CCC will use the inspiration of the 2012 London Games to increase the opportunities for every young person in the region to engage with their peers, internationally, and leave a legacy of young people with broadened horizons, new skills, and enhanced global awareness and connectedness.

The initiative seeks to promote the Olympic values of ‘excellence, respect and friendship’, to broaden the international outlook of young people in the region and to encourage in their development the qualities of openness, understanding, enquiry, equality and cooperation.
