Project Description: ​I-TALES finds its rationale in a context, easy to identify in a lot of contemporary societies, affected by a number of emergencies among which: massing migrations for different causes to the richest countries; fear of diversity and increasing racist behaviors; misinformation and hate speech spread by social networks. So the needs on which we want to intervene are:-urgency of construction of a cohesive community based on mutual respect, collaboration, dialogue, appreciation of cultural diversity.
Each partner will work with 30 learners. This group is first of all made up of migrants coming from outside Europe or internal to European countries. It will be integrated by students from Art Schools, from Adult Education Centres and other adults, identified in collaboration with Municipalities social services and local associations, who need improve critical thinking, communication, responsibility, positive attitude, interpersonal soft skills, because influenced by misinformation and hate speech against migrants that some political parties, opinion makers, clubs use and social networks spread more and more. A number of musicians, either from partner organizations or external, will be part of the group too.

The specific objectives of the project are to:
1. promote long-lasting interaction between local communities and groups of different origins for equal dignity of cultures, mutual acceptance, equal exchange, openness in dialogue;
2. To develop learners’ critical thinking, creative thinking and new patterns of behavior combating intolerance, discrimination;
3. To spread the use of creative methods in adult education and develop educators' awareness of their importance in building intercultural dialogue;

The activities of the project are:
The MODEL involves sharing, collaborating and building relationships with others.
Learners are involved in community-based arts activities linked to the graphic NOVEL "The Arrival".

The novel is based on:
- 3 topics “the departure, the journey, the new country”.
- 3 more topics “the old country memories, the welcoming dinner guest, the many”.

- critical elaboration "migrants and refugees" involved in previous steps have gained a sense of belonging, self esteem
