Improve by move

Description

"The main goal of the ""Improve by move"" project is to develop an innovative support program for young people with the use of artistic influences and thus increase the level of psychosocial competences and self-acceptance of participants aged 13-18 from 3 culturally different countries through participation in dance and movement workshops and exchange of experiences with specialists from partner organizations.The target groups of the project are youth workers (educators, psychologists, teachers, etc.) and young people.The target group of young people are people from disadvantaged backgrounds from Poland, France and the United Kingdom (aged 13 to 18), experiencing difficulties in social contacts, mental difficulties and often excluded from their peer life. The project will also cover a group of specialists working with young people: educators, psychologists, educators, animators, youth workers from each country. We want to increase their professional competences by showing the value of working with the body, through the artistic expression of dance, in the development of social competences and self-acceptance in young people. In addition, we want specialists to also take part in the proposed workshops so that they can transfer the acquired knowledge more effectively in their country.Willing young participants, selected by partners, will take part in a pilot program of workshops based on the methods of choreotherapy. The series of workshops will consist of 9 meetings. Young people who will take part in the pilot will have the task of participating in six two-hour workshops (1 integration + 5 strictly mobile + 3 supplementary methods), which will be held in groups.The training for youth workers will take place after the completion of most substantive works related to the creation of the workshop scheme and methods in the support program prepared for young people, in order to test and check them by the teachers themselves. During the training and on the basis of the workshop program, a video guide will be created, introducing youth workers to the arcane of working with dance and movement in supporting young people.As part of project management and planning related to the implementation of local activities, development of intellectual results as well as promotion and dissemination, we are planning 2 international meetings, in which representatives of all partner organizations will participate. We will also organize 2 online conferences with the participation of the entire team working substantively on the implementation of the project.In working with young people and educators, we will use methods of self-expression, dance, movement, dance and movement psychotherapy and non-formal education methods, gained thanks to many years of experience of each organization in working with young people.The main result will be the workshop program and its pilot, along with a video guide showing how to use the methods developed within the project and how to implement them to work with new groups, as well as explaining the assumptions of using dance, movement and body work in work with young people and the solutions of benefits.The assessment of the project's success will be measured in relation to the degree of achievement of the assumed goals and results. In order to monitor the level of achieved results and satisfaction with the project, we will conduct a two-level evaluation in accordance with the PRINCE2 methodology:- at the level of participants involved in all project activities (youth and youth workers)- at the level of the organization"
