Objectives

1. Share good training practices with minors with disabilities and generate replicable models to improve inclusion through art, guaranteeing inclusive, equitable and quality education, involving 23 centers, with specialists from different areas (teachers, social workers, educators …) and administrations (city councils, social policy departments, education, culture and universities), to weave a network that supports inclusive projects so that society sees the potential of these people 2. Create “amateur artistic companies” for minors with and without disabilities, promoting their active participation and carrying out artistic activities (SDG 11). 3. Promote the improvement of the quality of life of people with disabilities, their personal and cultural development, developing their autonomy, entrepreneurship and their ability to improve, enhancing their confidence and improving levels of self-esteem and self-concept. 4. Develop educational actions of theoretical-practical training with artists, educators and other participants in matters of social skills, artistic area, creations of productions and shows with minors with other abilities.

Background

Help build a more inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable society by promoting equal opportunities for people with disabilities, who are doubly vulnerable and sometimes invisible, proposing that they carry out artistic and cultural activities, enhancing their capacities with tools from active artistic methodologies which make us all equal, understanding that creation and imagination have no limits. It was necessary to work in the educational context, to alleviate inequalities, to which people with disabilities are more exposed (special education centers, primary/secondary education, with special needs students). Working in the centers school hours, with all the students, has allowed real inclusion between students with different abilities. Generate a professional line linked to artistic work, something new, since these children alternatives, when they leave the centers are linked to physical work (carpentry, gardening...), therefore new sources of employment must be promoted in line with SDG 8, from art As a vehicle for inclusion, EMOCIONARTE responds to the need to generate other spaces that allow achieving SDGs 4, 8 and 11 in particular.
