COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
Inclusive Identities Lab
A practice and policy lab where researchers and practitioners working with inclusion and integration are brought together in a 1-day to a week long facilitated process allowing for the emergence of powerful and informed policy initiatives as well as research agendas.
The Art of Dialogue
Have meaningful and transformative dialogues between various ideological positions. Engage in a deep exchange of opinions without entering into a defensive debate on these positions. Deepen your sense of relatedness with the other across significant differences.
Meeting the Other
Experience taking on a new identity with its own history and experience meeting others who have a very different history and identity. Engage in this full body and mind immersive experience to explore and make sense of what happens when we meet people we see as different from us and the implications this carries for us and our world.
Narrative Retelling
Experience another's reality through an experiential immersion of the self into the identity and experience of the 'other'. A powerful empathy building process that transforms the inner experience of the 'other' and thereby positively impacts one's sense of relatedness with the other.
Research Communication
Presentations on cutting edge research around identity and inclusion that impacts the experiences of belonging and security in communities. These could be talks, brief workshops or creative installations in exhibitions and fairs.
Active Citizenship
This project is under the Erasmus Plus programme of the European Union in which we, in partnership with other organisations across different European countries (Italy, Greece, Germany, Belgium and Denmark) are developing an advanced digital education platform on Active Citizenship for social change agents in the age group of 18 to 25.
