Objectives

Article 167 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union defines the role of the European Union in the field of culture: supports, coordinates or complements the actions of the members of the members and the objective of highlighting the common cultural heritage of Europe. Supporting the objectives of the European Union, the 5-Foot Octopus Association has decided to organize the Youth Exchange "Theater against exclusion" in a play about the population's migrations. The theater is an activity that involves the body, the mind and the spirit. So we dare to try new techniques both to modify reality and to put ourselves in the place of others. The aim of the project is to bring together young people who are not involved in the theater, even if the theater has become dull and only the elderly can enjoy it. Through this practice, show that the theater can be a tool of: a) communication b) resolution of conflicts c) training of creative skills d) resolution of internal personal problems. Apart from the main objective, specific objectives have been established such as: 1. Give more information about the situation of these communities. 2. Promote innovation and creativity, intellectual and artistic freedom and cultural exchange between countries. 3. Provide a safe space for communication between people from different communities. 4. Through the theatrical performance motivate the participants to make proposals on how to change the situation. 5. Promote social inclusion and equity. 6. Intercultural learning. With the project "Theater against exclusion" we want to offer young people the possibility of dealing with issues that are difficult to approach at the social level, such as emigration and social rights, from a focus on dialogue and diversity management.
