The project in a few words
The MIRROR project is a 7-day training course organized by Lunaria in Passignano sul Trasimeno (Italy) in March 2023, which will allow participants to experiment with visual and artistic techniques to tackle the subject of anti-racism.
The main idea behind the project is to develop tools and working methods, among youth workers, educators and group leaders, to fight racism and raise awareness of diversity. The participants will be trained in these topics in order to then join future projects organized by Lunaria with DOPE as partner as group leaders.
