The project develops innovative and participatory approaches where non formal education (NFE) methodologies are combined with artistic and digital tools (theatre, dance, video-making, storytelling). RE-ACT IN will work directly in engaging and empowering the most vulnerable youth (refugee and local, boys and girls) most affected by the Syrian diaspora through NFE activities by using performing and visual arts as a means of self-expression and as a tool to fight discrimination and social exclusion.

Specific Objectives:

• to improve the skills and competences of youth workers of the local organisations in Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan in promoting social inclusion and building trust and understanding between refugee and host communities through high quality non-formal education activities
• to empower young refugees and local youngsters living in marginalised areas, helping them to recover from crisis and build happier and more productive lives
• to co-design and experiment alternative models of youth participation in public and social life by the means of artistic expression and digital tools
• to enhance cooperation, innovation capacity and internationalization of organizations working in non-formal education sector in partner countries
