#trendynow
From the starting point ‘How do we create, encounter and tell stories?’ this workshop was designed for anyone interested in reflecting and debating about how stories can be manipulated. Specifically, we seek to address the power of social media in manipulating the truth.

Drama & Storytelling for Cultural Identity
This is a fun interactive workshop aimed towards using dramatic strategies such as storytelling to explore ways in which we can preserve cultural practices.

Being a Woman
Lately there has been a hype about "Be a Lady They Said", a poem read by Cynthia Nixon about expectations imposed on women. This workshop aims to unreveal aspects that are hidden behind those stigmas. We will discover and discuss what we can be proud of being a woman and create our own short clip presenting our perspective of what it means to be a woman nowadays.
Women/ people identifying as woman/ feminists
