Objectives

Spotlight addresses the lack of inclusive social skills training for autistic youth in Europe. With only 16% of autistic adults employed and significant service gaps, the project aims to use improv theatre to build essential social, communication, and emotional skills. By equipping youth workers with specialised tools and creating engaging, accessible programmes, Spotlight seeks to empower autistic youth, enhance their employability, and promote their inclusion in various societal settings.
