- To increase the capacity to develop innovative trainings and artistic production professional paths within marginal contexts that combine the need for artistic development of professional or semi-professional dancers with the need for social inclusion paths of adults in disadvantaged situations. - To increase the capacity of partner organizations to develop high-quality artistic products related to social issues. - To increase the visibility, employability and engagement of young dancers and choreographers and to increase the international visibility of the partner organisations. - To increase the capacity for international collaboration and inclusion in a European network of associations active in the field of performing arts applied to social intervention.
The project starts from the real issues affecting artists working in the dance sector, providing concrete answers to to the needs for continuous training, for opportunities for mobility and international visibility, for orientation towards their profession and employability, for combining their passion with social commitment. At the same time, the project was calibrated to respond to the need of people at risk of exclusion (young adult migrants in Spain and young adults without protection in Brindisi and persons deprived of their liberty in Italy) to have the opportunity to experience themselves through the expressive medium of contemporary dance also contaminated with other artistic forms. The project therefore serves to bring young artists, dancers and choreographers into contact and dialogue with people at risk of exclusion, in order to connect different qualities, aptitudes and vocations and to provide a concrete opportunity for everyone to be encouraged not to abandon their dreams and to discover and cultivate their talents in freedom, autonomy and awareness.
