Participatory Practices

Participatory methods are seen as new ways to create inclusive platforms for diverse voices - they offer new perspectives and new ways to examine how phenomena can be understood. They also have the power to challenge assumptions. The youth focused work of CTS and the British Council puts participation and creativity front and centre - an approach that offers critical lessons for all involved.

Mobile Arts for Peace (MAP) works with young people through music dance and drama in communities affected by conflict and other traumatic situations and where public services are non-existent or limited. A key focus of these creative projects is addressing the mental health of young people through activities that enable them to express and confront painful experiences and to articulate often abstract ideas about the past, self, community and identity.
