Descrizione:
Proyecto Kieu is an NGO focused in Human Rights and Responsible Citizenship. It works mainly thanks to the implication of its volunteers, who are involved in every aspect of the organization. Since 2010, together with the youngsters in our community, we promote awareness, active participation, critical thinking and ultimately self-social development. Proyecto Kieu is based in a small rural area in central Spain, La Sagra county, where we promote local and community development. Our village (the same with the surrounding ones in where we work) has a very young population and a strong lack of opportunities and activities for them. Our first aim is to find ways for widening our youngster’s life options and models; reinforce their active participation in the community and empower them by internationalizing their involvement in different activities and projects. In terms of education, considering the high drop-out school rate and low motivation we suffer, we promote and implement fun, attractive and happy educational activities based on non-formal education tools and learning by doing contexts. Our main activities are related to arts, culture and youth. So far we organize theatre productions and shows, exchanges, seminars and training courses around participation and active citizenship for youngsters and several creative processes (and courses) around Theatre of the Oppressed. We have wide experience in Youth in Action and Erasmus + programmes; this would be our first time trying the Europe for Citizens program.  Everything we do, we do it with GLO-CAL parameters: considering our responsibility in the global situation and focusing our activities in our local area (or the local area of our partners); we use Human Rights and Gender Equality as central concepts of our daily work.
