Young people often grow up in an environment marked by polarization, prejudice, a fear of the unknown, and limited opportunities for intercultural encounters, thereby increasing the risk of social exclusion and the tendency to divide people.
This project was therefore created to foster cultural exchange, drawing inspiration from Erasmus+ priorities regarding inclusion and diversity. It aims to establish a safe, dynamic learning environment through dance and movement, where diversity is not merely a topic of discussion but is experienced firsthand through daily interaction, cooperation, and shared responsibility.
This project took place in Dormello from September 16 to 24, 2026.
What was the objective?
The goal is to foster inclusion and connection through dance and music, and to enrich the value of diversity.
Through an effective combination of interactive workshops, digital labs, and group simulations, participants developed a wide range of practical skills:
Inclusion through dance
Creativity
Listening to others
Partecipants left with bonds from all over the world, having accomplished new knoledge on ways to communicate transcending words, feeling freed from self imposed limits, open to future encounters.
Context of the project: Erasmus+ Training Course
