Welcome to the ATLIC Creative Jam in Azores. A Creative Jam is an event that brings together young people, partners, agencies and decision makers to facilitate the opportunity to ``be creative`` and build prototypes to address problems through workshops and a hackathon. In each Creative Jam there are a series of topics to address. The ideas, services and products you create should be related to the theme of the event. To do this, we have selected a topic that concerns us greatly and that is related to the FUTURE OF THE ATLANTIC OCEAN.

THINK SPACE
Have you understood your topic? Do some research on your topic with your team. We will give you a board, and you will have to identify the problems and needs of your topic. We will reflect on these problems and needs.
MIMIMING ACTIVITY
Prepare a mime representation of your topic. The teams will be divided into groups of 3 so that they can interact with each other.

The first day you will be a little lost, but it doesn’t matter, ask everything you need, the staff, the mentors, and the partners will help you.
A COFFEE, PLEASE!
We need a little caffeine for our brain to work, tea works too 😛 In our Jams there is no moment of rest; This moment is self-managed by the teams: for reasons of not accumulating too many participants in the dining room and to be more efficient at work. The table will be available one hour after breakfast or lunch and you can enter as many times as you want.
Don’t forget!
✅ Comfortable backpack.
✅ Appropriate clothing and comfortable shoes for the first day – we’re going on an excursion (a raincoat is recommended).
✅ Bottle/canteen.
✅ Some nuts or snacks.
✅ Sun protection – Sunglasses, hat/cap, sunscreen.
✅ Laptop or tablet.

AND AFTER?…
Several experts will be on hand throughout the event to help you better understand the topic and shape your creative idea for blue regeneration.
Each team will be coordinated by an experienced mentor over the years in different creative sessions. They will be there to provide you with useful tools and methods to set up your idea, work on your prototype, and give you some tips for your presentation.
Do you have a clear idea and would you like to share it with your colleagues? Forward! To do this you will have 5 minutes to present your ideas. Then you must negotiate whether it is valid or not and you are included in the challenges that we propose in Creative Jam.
Let’s work as a team with our mentor.
