WORKSHOP “Experiencing World Solidarity Using Applied Drama Methods” by Olga Stobiecka-Rozmiarek

30 August, 11.00-12.45 (part 1), 13.45-15.30 (part 2)

The workshop is based on experiential learning approach and different techniques of body expression. Its participants will have a chance to explore the use of the innovative method of applied drama, working with people on the topic of diversity and solidarity. The basic questions we are going to answer are: what is the role of ‘me’ while meeting ‘the Other’?; what happens on the edge of meeting between ‘We’ and ‘They’?; how to build solidarity and the idea of Ubuntu among people from all around the world?; what could be the role of an anthropologist in the process of peace education?

Participants will:

  • experience different applied drama exercises such as warm-ups and Image Theatre
  • explore basic anthropological concept using body expression;
  • build creative results based on the group’s experience referring to the Inter-Congress’s leitmotif of World Solidarities.
