2023-3-IT03-KA210-YOU-000181261

The cultural association Project xx1 (IT) in collaboration with the Fundació Champagnat (ES) and Teatro Metaphora (PT), developed a cooperation project KA 210-YOU with the aim of fostering inclusion and empower young workers and young people through innovative methods based on creativity. Specifically, the collaboration was based on the development on the methodology of “Talking objects” - interactive artworks based on true stories of marginalisation and diversity.

The project implemented several correlated activities involving the direct participation of a team of 12 youth workers internationally and more than 40 youngsters locally:

3 Training Courses based respectively on storytelling, installations, and interactive art pieces, hosted in 3 different countries: Italy, Spain, and Portugal.

3 Transnational meetings to develop the methodology and to document the whole process.

3 parallel local workshops and dissemination, involving local youngsters and the local communities.

The results were: exchange of experiences between the partners and the enrichment of youth work based on creativity; strengthening of the professional skills of all participating youth workers to elevate the quality of youth work internationally; Involvement and enhancement of the skills of local youngsters, including people with fewer opportunities; a documentation for the new method of “Talking objects”, along with a showcase of its possibilities in the form of an interactive exhibit.

IMMERSIVE EDUCATION: AN INNOVATIVE METHODOLOGY TO FOSTER INCLUSION AND PARTICIPATION

2023-1-IT02-KA210-SCH-000165336

Immersive education is a methodology that fosters learning based on discovery, initiative, collaboration and creativity.

In collaboration with the school "Largo Dino Buzzati" in Rome, the International Network for Culture and Arts - INCA Catalunya in Barcelona, and the Institute Laia L'arquera in Matarò, Project xx1 has developed an Erasmus+ project: a small-scale partnership in the field of school education.

The project "Immersive Education - An innovative methodology to foster inclusion and participation" focused on experimenting and disseminating Immersive Education to develop competences. Curiosity, creativity and emotional involvement engage students in a learning process based on direct experience and autonomy.

The project implemented a series of activities during 2023 and 2024: online meetings, international mobilities, local actions, and e-Twinning exchanges.

The project introduced Immersive Education in Spain, expanding the educational offerings of the Laia L'Arquera Institute and adapting the method to the Spanish context. The active participation of students and teachers fostered intercultural and educational exchange, typical of Erasmus+ initiatives.
