ToLERaNce

septembrie, 2022

IUBIRE ❤️, PACE ✌🏼, ARMONIE 😌 – toate inimile ❤️♥️💜💛🖤💖💚🧡🤎🤍 împreună pentru Toleranță

Co-funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union 🇪🇺, the project was a 24-months Capacity Building design in the field of Youth, involving six partner’s organisations from Africa (South Africa 🇿🇦, Kenya 🇰🇪, Senegal 🇸🇳) and Europe (Bulgaria 🇧🇬 , Italy 🇮🇹, Romania 🇷🇴).

The project sets out to improve the quality and recognition of youth workers and leaders in non-formal education and how to use Sport and Theatre to create tolerant atmosphere and also enhances intercultural dialogue and peace, reinforces youth empowerment and promotes ToLERaNce through useful tools and educational methodologies in Sport and Theatre.

Rezultate

The most important outcome of the ToLERaNce project is the Digital Handbook that we worked on throughout the project. It amasses elaborated descriptions and instructions for the creative activities using Sport and Theatre.

The ToLERaNce broschure is available in 5 foreign languages (🇷🇴, , 🇫🇷, 🇮🇹, 🇧🇬) and it can be of use to stakeholders and of other external organisations or individuals, as a source of inspiration and instructions for a prospective practical implementation.
