Summary

Objectives:
The project “UNIQUE” will involve three international partners to enhance the quality of creative methodologies for Youth Work, based on interactive storytelling, installations, and theatre. These methods will be based on stories of hardship and fewer opportunities to promote inclusion directly in local communities, implementing the new methodology with local youth groups in Italy, Spain, and Portugal. The project will culminate in three parallel Dissemination events fostering inclusion.

Activities:
The project includes 3 International Training courses for Youth Workers interested in developing a new creative methodology to foster inclusion. This new methodology will be applied to 3 local activities engaging youth groups and local communities on the themes of inclusion. The local activities will culminate in Dissemination events open to the public, to give voice to youngsters with fewer opportunities and/or marginalized. 3 Transnational meetings will allow organization and monitoring.

Impact:
The project will result in a creative exchange between organizations developing creative Youth Work. It will produce Digital guidelines for a new creative methodology along with detailed suggestions for its application in Youth Work and video documentation of the whole process. It will finally enhance the employability of Youth Workers and local youngsters, through a learning process that hinges on horizontal and creative skills.
