We invite you all to watch the virtual forum on May 2nd at 16:00 Estonian time and to spread the word!
The forum is already in its seventh edition. This time, we will explore the opportunities that Estonia, a country located by the Baltic Sea amidst forests and swamps, offers to young Estonians living abroad. We’ll take a look at the present and peek into the future. We’ll hear inspiring stories from both young people and those young at heart. We’ll start with a new format – a video postcard from the community. The moderator is Ellen Valter, the heart and soul of the Toronto Estonian House, and the music will be provided by musician and poet Eik, who recently won the Estonian Language Achievement Award in a public vote.
It should be noted that we will also be raffling a prize among the viewers of this virtual forum, which is a round-trip flight ticket (for two people) to Estonia with a two-night stay in a hotel in Tallinn. The drawing will take place on May 10th at 12:00 Estonian time. You can also enter the draw by watching the broadcast until May 9th at 23:00 Estonian time.
More information will be available on the GlobalEstonian.com website, including the virtual forum schedule, participation link, and raffle details. The forum will be conducted in Estonian, with real-time translation into English and Russian.
Kutsume teid kõiki vaatama virtuaalfoorumit 2. mail kell 16.00 eesti aja järgi ning sellele reklaami tegema!
Foorum toimub juba seitsmendat korda. Seekord vaatame milliseid võimalusi pakub välismaal elavatele eesti noortele Eesti, maa mis asub Läänemere ääres keset metsi ja rabasid ja kasvatab hoogsalt ükssarvikuid. Vaatame olevikku ja piilume veidi tulevikku. Kuuleme inspireerivaid lugusid noortelt kui ka neilt kes hingelt noored. Alustame uue formaadiga – videopostkaart kogukonnast. Moderaator on Toronto KESKUSe hing ja eestvedaja Ellen Valter ning muusikat teeb muusik ja luuletaja Eik, kes äsja võitis rahvahääletusel eesti keeleteo preemia.
Olgu märgitud, et ka sellel virtuaalfoorumil loosime vaatajate vahel välja auhinna, milleks on lennupilet (kahele inimesele) Eestisse ja tagasi, ööbimisega 2 ööd Tallinnas hotellis. Loosimine toimub 10. mail kell 12 Eesti aja järgi. Loosirattasse saab end üles anda ka saadet järele vaadates kuni 9. maini kell 23.00 Eesti aja järgi.
Info GlobalEstonian.com veebilehel veel täieneb, sinna lisandub virtuaalfoorumi kava, osalemislink ja loosiratta info. Foorum on eesti keeles, reaalajas tõlgitud inglise ja vene keelde.
