FINISHED
The project “InterACT-IN!” is an international seminar funded the European Commission through the Key Action 1 (Mobility projects for young people and youth workers) of its “Erasmus+” programme and with the support of the Instituto de la Juventud de España (INJUVE). Coordinated by the organisation “Teatro Crítico Universal” (TECU), the seminar that will take place in Ezcaray (La Rioja, Spain) from the 07/09/2015 to the 14/09/2015, will join together participants (staff, regular volunteers, youth workers, etc.) from 6 different organisations and European countries (Estonia, Latvia, Germany, Turkey, Poland and Spain) in order to work together and exchange good practices related to intercultural inclusion, education and the acquisition of new social skills through non formal education methodologies for children and young people using theater and dramatic techniques. The seminar will focus on tools or projects that the partner organisations normally use on the mentioned field to create youth initiatives related to this topic and promote the youth participation and entrepreneurship at any level on their communities. Furthermore, “InterACT-IN!” aims to create new networks and links among organisations from different countries that could set the bases of future cooperation
activities through the European programmes available to promote the inclusion of young people with fewer opportunities. Moreover, the seminar aims not only to benefit the participants of the project and their sending organisations, but also to increase its impact through a well prepared strategy of dissemination. This strategy will allow to any kind of person the access to the results and knowledge developed during its activities thanks to open and public tools (Web site of the project, catalogue of good practices online, Facebook page, video of the project, etc.). Besides activities to exchange best practices and learn about the partner organisations involved on the seminar, participants will also take part in workshops, training sessions and dynamics focused, not only on getting to know the environment of the project, but also the cultural and folk reality of the countries participating on it (food , traditions, history, etc.).
