Social circus magic recipe
Date du début: 1 mai 2015, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

Mardin is located in the southeast of Turkey, in a Kurdish region under tense political climate. In recent years, the situation has become even more complicated because of the neighboring conflicts that broke out in Syria and Iraq, which caused the arrival of many refugees in southern Turkey. In Mardin, 44% of the population is under the age of 24 years. The lack of cultural and artistic offer prevents young people from developing their creativity and blocks their understanding of cultural diversity. In this context, the association Her Yerde Sanat operates a social circus school for children and young people in Mardin and the surrounding area. Social Circus Magic Recipe project consists of a series of study visits to the Turkish association. These trips will allow NOMADWAYS youth workers to develop their social circus, project management and animation skills in the specific context of Mardin. This will help improve the quality of future social circus projects, including one developped by the same partners and more, for 2016 in Cairo, under similar conditions to those of Mardin. Social Circus Magic Recipe involves 4 study visits of 1 month each for 4 French youth workers in Turkey. By observing and participating in the social circus activities of Her Yerde Sanat, the participants will develop their personal and professional experience of social circus. Through moments of observation, conversation, meeting, preparation and animation of workshops, they will train their social circus skills through methods of non-formal and informal learning. They will learn professional tools to engage youth from disadvantaged communities in circus activities developing their key competences. Develop their knowledge, skills and pedagogical practice of social circus will enable participants to improve their personal and professional skills. Working with other professionals from Europe will give them the opportunity to build international networks and develop their sense of European citizenship and identity. The production of an educational booklet presenting the tools and methods used during the study visits will participate in improving the quality of social circus and youth work in Europe. All project results will then be used by partners to multiply the impact of activities through communication activities and the organization of dissemination events at the local, regional, national, European and international level. In the longer term, the partnership aims at extending the influence of participants' work by organizing new projects together.
