2023-1-IT02-KA220-ADU-000159380

Educating adult learners through the use of Storytelling can help to promote the social inclusion of adults with disabilities, refugees, prisoners, addicts and adult women. Storytelling is a non-formal educational method based on narrating a series of stories to each group in order to stimulate reflection, self-recognition, and personal development. Thus, listening to stories provokes a greater brain activation compared to other reading methods, and this favours the connection with the listener’s personal experiences.

The main objectives of the project are:
– To support and enhance the work of adult educators working in the context of marginalised adults
– To activate empowerment processes in the target groups
– To build a shared European methodology for working with the Storytelling method
– To provide operational working tools – to get to know European cultures through traditional Storytelling
