We want to promote a new digital culture, more supportive and committed to those who most need it, but also accesible both
for users and young cultural entrepreneurs themselves, and specially for racialized and migrant youth. This initiative aims
to promote a new young, dynamic and supportive cultural entrepreneurship that facilitates the social and labor inclusion of
youth (both local and migrant).
In order to achieve this, 6 European entities that work in cultural entrepreneurship, art education and the inclusion of
migrants want to promote VOICE THROUGH ART: a space for young creators(both born in Europe
and not) where they can share their creations and generate joint artistic entrepreneurship learning from each other and
establishing networks of solidarity that allow them to achieve their inclusion.
This will be a platform that facilitates the dissemination of a new culture and european values especially for those who have
the most barriers, but also enables a social horizon facilitated by accesibility and democratization of art throught new
technologies.

About
We are a cultural association from Valencia, Spain. We develop socio-cultural projects. Since 2017 we have been working
on feminism, interculturalism and community development through different artistic tools.
Multidisciplinary team made up of professionals from the social, cultural and artistic fields.
Working with young people through art has always been very important for the entity, so we research and design specific
projects for this audience, stressing that young people are diverse and that we have to work from many perspectives and
tools that adapt to their languages: photography, video, artivism, urban art, etc.
At European level we are leaders of the Books with life project. This ended with a guide that analyses the context of
migrant youth and shares different methodologies that use art as a tool to promote interculturality.
At local level: We develop projects for young people to become artistic producers so that they themselves can communicate
who they are, what they need, what changes they want in the society in which we live, so that they can be active agents.
We have carried out projects for different entities: youth centres, museums, NGDOs, etc. Using tools such as photography,
video, muralism, collage, fanzine, psychogeographic mapping, etc. for this purpose.
