History of the project
This project is a natural continuation of a close cooperation that has been going on for almost two years between Soulidarity and the civil initiative Creative Studio "Favorit", run by the passionate Olena Bryl. The collaboration has since deepened, and Olena is employed during this project as project manager for the LIVE! GROW! CREATE! Below we will post updates on the progress of the project, but you can also take part of our previous activities via the button below.
Now the project goes LIVE! GROW! CREATE! gets underway!
LIVE! GROW! CREATE!
It is with great pleasure and anticipation that we, the three collaborating organizations Soulidarity & Human Rights, Time for Us and the Improvisation Studio, announce that we have received funding from "Culture Helps". This generous funding will allow us to start our ambitious project "Live! Grow! Create!", an initiative that aims to support and integrate children in Sweden under the Mass Refugee Directive and their families.
"Live! Grow! Create!" is more than just a project - it is a vision to use the transformative power of creativity to build bridges between cultures, offer support and create understanding. Through a combination of artistic, musical, choreographic, theatrical and stage activities, we create a creative space where refugee children, together with Swedish children, can explore and express themselves. The project aims not only to promote creative and critical thinking, but also to strengthen children's emotional well-being and cultural knowledge - crucial elements for successful integration.
