MigrARTion

The new European crisis on migration emerged through the growing number of refugees and migrants entering the European Union, through the Mediterranean Sea or the Southeast of Europe, and requested asylum. However, these massive flows have generated many concerns in Europe, as they tend to be connected with violent extremism without motives The result is a bad public image that leads to fear, prejudice, xenophobia, and discrimination against migrants, all of them go against the values ​​of the European Union and have a great impact on the peace and prosperity of Europe.
We decided to promote the theme through art, more specifically Theater, Photography, and Video production. The arts have been an important catalyst for change in society worldwide and it is a method known for the very good results and comments which provide by stimulating self-reflection, self-development and also to overcome the Xenophobia, prejudices, and stereotypes.
The main problems to which the project response are little awareness about the crisis migration in Europe as well as prejudice and discrimination against migrants and refugees that link with violent extremists and therefore develop more fear and xenophobia, a vicious circle that we must break in Europe.
