Our Goals
“No matter what, “the show must go on!”
Our philosophy…
Because the show must go on no matter what, ATTC has exerted all efforts through its project Home Arts, Homecoming to ensure just that. The project worked on many levels to ensure fulfilling the following goals:
- Enhance and strengthen the resilience of Syrian communities and build the capacity of key cultural actors to withstand crises, practice, and defend freedom of expression,
- Foster ‘community resilience’ by developing cohesiveness within a set community and stitching its fabric,
- Reinforcing people’s capacity to feel safe, commit to a group and belong,
- Developing their learning capacities, and helping them better cope with difficult feelings to help themselves and others,
- Develop self-understanding and foster a sense of identity.
Through several art activities Home Arts, Homecoming has touched and changed the lives of many during 2017 and plans to continue to do so throughout the duration of the project.
