Objectives

Art is recognized to have a positive contribution to make social inclusion. This project developed a complex theme of social impact as it aimed to help young people to break the stereotypes toward various marginalized groups and developed some ways to fight against the exclusion of young people in the social lives of their own communities. This project presented a strong tool of art that can be used for this purpose, as art is the way that allows young people to share their personal stories and tell us their obstacles by touching the people and making them think deeply about the issues in which other people are sunk in daily life. The main aim of the project was: To apply art to assist in creating a tolerant society, where people will be equally included not excluded because of any signs, such as their gender, sexual orientation, ethnic and religious belonging or health condition. The specific objectives of the projects were the following: To increase participants' knowledge and raise their awareness about social exclusion, intercultural communication, and tolerance with marginalized groups through meaningful action and substantive social change in local communities. To contribute to the development of young people's creative abilities and use art as a platform for social inclusion. To empower youth to serve as multipliers in the interest of marginalized young people who have been subjected to human rights violations; To build a strong network and probably plan a potential collaborative project. Recognize Erasmus+ as a tool for intercultural learning, youth work, and inclusion;
