Educating adult learners through the use of Storytelling can help to promote the social inclusion of adults with disabilities, Ukrainians refugees, inmates, 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.
Through an innovative process of implementing the Storytelling method, which will stimulate dialogue within and between the target groups, highlighting their needs, the obstacles they face in their daily lives, the concerns and social barriers they encounter on a daily basis. The type of methodology used for the project results has been considered a highly flexible, adaptable and creative method that stimulates interpersonal dialogue, creative capacity and cognitive ability of the target groups involved.
 
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
