CETAPS will be organizing, in 2016, at a global scale, the Commemorative Programme of the 500 Years of the publication of Thomas More’s Utopia. “Utopia 500” has a Website (www.utopia500.net) meant to contain:
. information on all the events (all over the world) that will be organized in order to celebrate the idea of Utopia.
. the promotion of three outreach activities: “PAN-Utopia 2100”, “Great Utopians: People with ideas that have changed the world” and “Sounds of Utopia”
. Information on the ARUS network (Advanced Research in Utopian Studies).
The project will benefit from the contribution of several trainees coming from all over Europe, who will help with the organization of activities that will take place in Portugal, namely the organization of the International Conference of the Utopian Studies Society / Europe, to be held in Lisbon in July 2016, and of its associated activities (theatre plays, cinema cycles, book exhibitions, public readings…). They will also contact cultural and educational institutions of their home countries, promoting the idea of utopia, as well as the PAN-Utopia 2100 project.
However, the project is in need of contributions from specialists in database and network design and administration who may help with the construction of databases and websites, and work along with other trainees specialists in digital arts.
A truly international work environment will be offered, from September 2015 to December 2016, as well as the unique opportunity to participate in a project that will grow in direct proportion to their work. Trainees are welcome to stay from 2 months to 1 year.
