This includes working in different arts forms such as film, theatre and dance and literature as well as supporting creative economies working with cultural institutions to address development and social challenges.
Education: We work with educational institutions and professionals at school level, in vocational education and higher education to open up new opportunities for collaboration and improving systems and learning.
Inclusive Communities: We work on non-formal education to support young people to develop life-skills including citizenship, media literacy and leadership.
