ABOUT THE
PROJECT.
ATTENTION all storytellers, creatives, activists and curious young people! We’re kicking off the new year with a fantastic opportunity to join us in Lecce and let your voices be heard.
WHAT’S THE ISSUE?
In a world of conflict and changing cultural landscapes, now more than ever young people and youth leaders will need to step up and promote inclusion, diversity and tolerance.
WHY STORYTELLING?
Storytelling offers a unique type of participatory action which empowers participants to shape and share their own narratives, communicating their #truth and the emotional impact of their experiences. Sharing our stories and those of our communities can lead to increased mutual understanding and empathy between diverse individuals.
Join forces with participants from six EU countries and be guided by professionals as you build your creative writing and storytelling skills to build inclusive communities.
