Additionally, participants will receive training in sensitivity, consent, and inclusive language. They will also learn methods to support young people in expressing their identities through art forms such as theatre, dance, and film. Participants will be informed about the Erasmus+ program and guided on how to utilize it for their future projects. Lastly, they will have the opportunity to share and develop their theatre-making approaches.
This project aims to take a step toward combating exclusionary actions against LGB and TQIA+ individuals.
