Art Escape

This project aims to enhance the skills and competencies of Youth Workers in creating and managing outdoor Escape Rooms with themes based on fairy tales and traditional myths, which reinforce creativity, as well as drive quality, innovation, and recognition of youth work, thus contributing to the recovery and resilience of the cultural and creative sectors.

The project goals are as follows:

– Develop the skills of Youth Workers to create outdoor educational activities with a cultural and creative component for young people, helping them acquire skills and competencies to support their creative potential.
– Build a guide and an e-course on the HOP platform, enabling Youth Workers to create their own outdoor escape rooms with themes from fairy tales and traditional myths.
– Create learning pathways/lists of outdoor escape rooms with themes from fairy tales and traditional myths in partner countries to be featured on the Cities of Learning Platform (www.citiesoflearning.eu).
– Stimulate social inclusion through the arts, fostering innovative approaches to participatory and intercultural dialogue that connect interested young people with organizations in the cultural and creative sectors.
– Engage young people in identifying learning opportunities and shaping their understanding of learning according to their needs, interests, and passions.
