EUnite Marseille

#EUnite is a project developed by 40+ EU Global Shapers Hubs including 1000+ Global Shapers.

The Marseille Hub is spearheading the segment called "Culture and Cuisine". Last year the Hub has attracted over 2000+ views, 70 minutes of footage and 500+ engagements.

Problem Statement: Europe Day, celebrated every year on May 9th, provides the ideal occasion to get together and spread the message of unity, hope, solidarity and cohesion. We must remind our community that our continent and our people are stronger together, not divided, and that Europe will only recover strongly from the health crisis brought about the COVID-19 if its people #EUnite and work together.

Target Group: European Citizens, including the youth of Aix-Marseille, France.

Proposed Solution: The Global Shapers Marseille Hub will focus on actions that increase awareness about Europe Day through showcasing the diversity of Europe represented in the diversity of Food/Cuisines. Our goal is to go beyond our statistics from last year - to reach 3000+ views, 1000+ engagements and (possibly) create a video recipe book.

Hub Activities: The Global Shapers Marseille Hub put out a call to action to youth in Marseille, as well as in collaboration with other hubs to their local area, for people to send in a video recording of themselves cooking a regional dish (or if they are an immigrant, a dish from their identified region). Our Hub will collate these videos into an engaging, virtual streaming 'cook book' which will be live broadcasted using the EUnite Platform on 9 May.

Available Metrics: Our goal is to go beyond our statistics from last year - to reach 3000+ views, 1000+ engagements and (possibly) create a video recipe book.

Collaborators: all European Hubs
