Good cooperation RECHARGE Serfenta!

Serfenta still in RECharge! What is the most effective, developing, and what gives us a new energy? Cooperations, people, sharing and exchanging – it recharges us. Thanks to ReCharge NEXT project we can make it. The plan is to develop our work with heritage and propose new solutions sustainably

We’ve started in 2024, and we are going to continue our work in 2025 year, a cooperation with a group of fantastic experts to develop our future. Well… the truth is, that future is now! And we have new ideas almost ready to present to the wide audience.

Business Model Canvas

Our mentor in the process is Eesti Meremuuseum from Estonia, but we have many advisors in this project, like Ragnar Siil who is working with us to develop our business model. We can truly recommend the RECharge project. The main clue is to help the cultural institutions and NGOs to start or to develop the business path. We all need a support to financial sustainability. This idea really suits our visions about cultural heritage world. We need to connect the market and people’s needs. So we are trying to prepare our business model in the best and suitable way.

If you want to know more about the project, there is a tool which you can use – a Playbook. Just check if it’s for you and your institution!

Started a New Year with a group of experts – let’s recharge!

We decided to start a New Year with a meeting of our group of experts. Urszula Szwed is the leader of our group work – and we did the resume of the previous year of our work and discussed the next steps in this year.

We created a group of experts from a field of culture, business, design, heritage, and crafts which we create with 7 brilliant women! Together in the RECHARGE project, we have the possibility to design some new solutions together. We have a few meetings behind us, and it’s a new quality of work in Serfenta!

More about Serfenta?

Serfenta has worked for over 17 years in the field of modern and business approach to basketry craft. The experts who create the organization, Paulina Adamska and Łucja Cieślar (together with business advisor Urszula Szwed) designed their own Business Model “Innovation model of Craft Revitalisation”. It helps to carry out the activities. Their goals include sharing, promoting, and managing knowledge about the intangible heritage of basketry. Serfenta’s activities cover workshops and expert events; talks about the meeting point between cultural anthropology, craft, and market; and bringing the craft experience to everyone. They teach those who then teach others to spread the knowledge and skills of the basketry.

Serfenta is one of three Polish NGOs that is accredited by UNESCO. In 2024 we received Europa Nostra Award, in 2022 the Jeonju International Award for Promoting Intangible Cultural Heritage (JIAPICH), with strong focus on sustainable business. The organization is also a finalist of New European Bauhaus Award 2023 with the “Innovation Model of Craft Revitalisation”.
