NATIONAL EURODESK HIGHLIGHT

Incontri creativi (creative meetings)

The Informagiovani Eurodesk of the Municipality of Iglesias in Italy organised the Creative encounters, a project involving 15 young people/adults with fewer opportunities in interactive and re(creative) activities. The main objective was to improve awareness of their abilities and lead them to reflect on the present, past and future. Participants took part in various non-formal activities such as film viewing, an Escape Room, a Linguistic Tombola and board games.

Through the project, participants managed to share their ideas and express feelings, anxieties and visions for the future, acquiring various transversal skills. The presence of some adults was important as the young people were able to notice the different facets of life yesterday and today, learning from them and approaching different realities of life.
