The project will mostly focus on art, in particular, theatre, as one of the most effective tools that can be used in this context. The project will use non-formal education approach based on theatre as tool against racism and discrimination of other cultures. We consider the theatre as powerful tool for social change and intercultural dialogue.The overall aim of the project is to promote NFE methodologies for building the peace through theatre art, facilitating the intercultural dialogue. Through this project, we want to strengthen the ancient links between music, movement and human being, proposing the use of theatre art as a way to promote the sense of cohesion among EU citizens and upcoming migrants, asylum seekers.Young people must be the leading force in the process of acceptance of migrants. That’s why by doing such activities they will become more skilled and motivated for actions that contribute to dialogue between the conflict affected communities and EU. Theatre can contribute to the establishment of harmonious world by enhancing solidarity among human beings. It is an expressive language that allows us to communicate (both at the individual and collective levels) feelings, to live experiences and reflections about the world. It also represents our identity and our roots.The theatre may be often related to national culture because it can easily express personal events and feelings. During the project, we will discover our roots and tradition using appropriate tools, music and dance.This project will raise awareness on the situation of modern youngsters in post conflict countries, enhance the spirit of cooperation among EU and partnership countries and overcome the cultural barriers which effects their lives till ages. The project represents an unique opportunity to meet professionals in the youth fields which can impact to the youth lives in their countries at different levels, widening their point of views to other countries.
