Project Summary

CAPACITARTE (Capacity & Art) trains professionals in the artistic-pedagogical world in order to extend and develop their skills in active non-formal methodologies through art, creativity and culture. These professionals of the artistic-pedagogical world trained in non-formal methodologies through Art will revert their learning in future trainings with management teams, teachers and AMPAS of educational centers located in areas of priority attention.

The methodology implies an integrated approach to gender and includes the implementation of laboratories and practical workshops.

Sustainability:
The project will be sustainable in itself since its main objective is to detect educational keys of extrapolable success, and it will be therefore the people who have attended the training and diffusion meetings those who will make it known in their work environments. In turn, the national structures of all participating entities (partners) will be in charge of disseminating the results of the project in their forums and social networks, so that each country will continue to train professionals in the artistic-educational field.
