🏢 About the local organisation

ATADI is a non-profit organization dedicated to social services to the community and especially to taking care of intellectual disability people and/or at risk of social exclusion. So, during the work camp, most of the times we will carry out activities which include people with intellectual disabilities. If you value Creativity, you like the scene world, you enjoy the people, you would like to know and approach to the disability, be in the rural world, and a large dose of coexistence... This is your place !! Your solidary summer!!

💼 What the programme involves

Design, Creativity, Evolution and Inclusion are the keys of our project. We will work a social wall painting and through photography, collage and imagination we will create and design a fanzine and a calendar that can accompany us throughout 2020 and that can remind us of our journey during the last 10 years. The freshness and the contribution of the campers with the orientations of the staff... they will do the rest. 1. Elaboration of the artistic mural in a central place in Alcorisa and / or high visibility: - Design of main ideas for its development. - The idea and design of the campers together with the collaboration of the public will serve to create the final mural. - Encourage the creativity of volunteers and people with Intellectual Disability. - Create a mural that lasts over time and contributes to a change of image of the environment. 2.- Development of a Fanzine / Calendar: These two communication supports will be developed through different techniques such as: - Tell ideas through collage images - Cropped photographs - Dialogues with balloon written by hand or cut out of texts. - Stories with meaning that can be part of a calendar or be only a dossier / comic to remember. - Layout, printing, binding and digitalization. An added value that we can give to this Product is to turn it into something supporting, that in some way, there may be copies for sale that empower the work of volunteering and the application to a purpose that aims to impact society make it more inclusive. Question that will be assessed once the field of work is completed.
