Coordinator: XsentrikArts (Austria)

Partners: EduLab, NGO Nest Berlin (Germany).

The objectives of the "Cultural and historical awareness for active citizenship" (CHACH) project are:

1) To foster a social inclusion process for both youth and local communities, deepening their involvement in cultural activities and their knowledge about the history of the place they live in. This objective aims to push their communication and sense of community and active citizenship by exploring social issues other inhabitants face and changes that have occurred over time.

2) To improve educators' knowledge about Public/Oral History methodologies and target group needs to improve their everyday activities, fostering the creation of similar projects in other realities. This objective aims to give educators the tools to sensitize youngsters about project topics and start a social inclusion process through culture and storytelling, fostering their sense of belonging to their communities.
