ENACT_Empowerment through Nature, Authentic Communication and Theatre

Using the tools of Nature, Authentic Communication and Theatre we will learn together how to empower the young people we work with by developing their skills in enhanced communication, conflict resolution techniques, entrepreneurial thinking and active participation. There is a huge need for young people to be more empowered to realise their dreams, to turn their ideas into actions and to play an active part in the life of their communities and societies. There is an urgent need in Europe to work on this issue, taking under consideration the current situation with growing discrimination and racism. With our training course we work on the migrant issue and empower young people to take the lead and start fighting against the oppression of these groups by addressing the need of empowering youth through effective non-formal and informal learning methods. The programme is based on interactive and participative approach. The processes of learning from each other and learning by doing will be crucial. The training course will stimulate creativity, communication and active participation. discussions, group processes and individual work. During the training methods of non-formal and informal education will be used, such as individual, pair and group work, creative workshops, theatre methods, simulation and situation games, problem solving and debate exercises, presentations and discussions. Part of the programme will take place outdoors in nature.
