This mobility is one of the international activities foreseen by the project, with the participation of other 16 youth filmmakers from the 5 partner countries: Italy, Spain, Germany, Kenya and Indonesia.

Storytelling and the importance of psychologists in the Third Sector

Storytelling and the importance of psychologists in the Third Sector

The psychologist can contribute to something of great importance: the understanding of the human and the creation of healthy, collaborative networks among individuals who share life paths. One of the tools through which this goal can be achieved is precisely through speech and storytelling.
