About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The use of theater art to foster acceptance of diversity and strengthening social inclusion process. Volunteers will work on presenting fair play rules through theater tools to the kids of the “UMOJA-ENOSI” fc. By learning to follow the rules, cooperate with others, and accept victory or defeat with dignity, children and volunteers (volunteers as well) could develop social and emotional skills such as empathy, acceptance of diversity and mutual respect. The 1st week will be introductory, preparatory and educational. The volunteers will get to know each other through theater games and get in touch with the kids introducing the topic of fair play. The volunteers will explore and share the rules of fair play and stories of racism in football in order to be more familiar with the topic. The 2nd week volunteers will prepare the interactive performance, (based on Forum Theater methods) which will be presented at the football field. Find more info in: https://canva.link/5c7m9h9ir2jnhp

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
