Module 9 (Extra Session): Artworks and Storytelling of Social Inclusion Groups (RomPraha, AHEAD Foundation and SENSUS)

The webinar “Module 9 (Extra Session): Artworks and Storytelling of Social Inclusion Groups” was organized on November 28, 2022, as part of the series ‘Open Art Studios’ of the Erasmus+ project PALkonnect, in order to test the project’s training curriculum for the empowerment of social inclusion groups through creativity and artworks. The Module was presented by the partners from RomPraha (Czech Republic), AHEAD Foundation (Romania) and SENSUS (Sweden). The trainers were Mrs. Sevdalina Kovářová Kostadinova, Mrs. Erika Pihl, Mrs. Helen Riise and Mr. Robert Serban.

The aim of the session was for the participants to gain knowledge about the artworks of social inclusion groups, like Roma people and people with disabilities, so that they can broaden their horizons, gain knowledge and get inspired through the enrichment of their perspectives. Roma artists and artworks were presented, as well as the history of Romani music (from its origins to the Manele genre) and artworks made by people with disabilities (with emphasis on the Activity Medis 5).
