This Learning Partnership aims at creating opportunities for educators, teachers, social workers, psychologists that

Art-Counselling concept and methodologies. Art Counselling is an innovative approach focused on “Improvement of
social relationships and life quality by using artistic, audiovisual and multimedia languages and by applying a
methodology based on Creativity". It can be used to develop self-awareness and relationships, to overcome
personal and group conflicts, to activate communication and social-cultural integration processes, to improve
mutual trust and understanding between Users and the supporting Organizations and to develop individual and
team creativity.The participating Organizations aim at experimenting the Art-Counselling methodologies in order to
understand whether and how they could be included in their social inclusion programmes. The experiment will
involve five groups of disadvantaged young-adults who will implement audiovisual products acting both as leading
actors and authors. They will also have a European travel experience to take part to the Multimedia Event, which
will be realized for the audiovisual products showing and socialization purpose.The Partnership aims also at
promoting European cooperation among staff by sharing previous experiences and practices and by creating a
European network among participating Organizations.
