LegiLAB Sessions
Date du début: 1 janv. 2015, Date de fin: 1 avr. 2015 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

LegiLAB Sessions is a contact-making event that will take place from February 26th to March 1st in Maribor. Participating in the project are 9 youth workers from four partner organisations from Slovenia, Italy, Poland and Great Brirain (Scotland). All of these organisations use the methods of theatre of the oppressed and/or legislative theatre in their work with youth. The main topic to be considered at the four-day event is the approach to youth work known as legislative theatre. This represents the democratic process through the application of all the techniques of theatre of the oppressed, combined with the conventional rituals of pariamentary assembly, with the aim of transforming the citizens' wishes into laws. The suggestions and endeavours resulting from the creative process are in the follow-up put forward to be confirmed by legislators. Since legislative theatre is quite a rare approach in youth work and used in different ways in different countries, it is thus even more necessary to exchange experience, knowledge and case studies of good practice. The aim of the LegiLAB Sessions project is to establish connections between different organisations which are already using legislative theatre, the knowledge of legal systems of other countries and the possibilities of applying legislative theatre as a form of youth work, as well as to exchange basic knowledge and experience which can help each of the organisations in their future work. We also intend to prepare a training programme, which we will organise together in the fall of 2015. The long-term goals of the project are to prolong international cooperation among participating partners in future projects aiming to develop legislative theatre as a form of youth work; to positively influence the area of active citizenship; and to explore new possibilities of increasing the participation of youth in decision-making processes in society at the local, state and international levels and to promote better understanding of the social, cultural and legal diversity of the participants in order to build a common European identity.
