Border Crossings has built up a reputation for high quality intercultural working practice and is in a unique position to share it through bespoke training courses. The staff have significant experience in leading and training practitioners to work in this field.
We have an established practice and reputation for our training programmes and over the past two we have delivered training labs for arts and community organisations from a range of EU countries, including Denmark, Germany, Greece, Sweden and the UK.
The training covers areas such as:
Who is the training for?
1. Cultural professionals – to provide emerging playwrights and theatre makers with opportunities to develop new work in an intercultural, European context, and to examine intercultural approaches to creative participation and engagement with communities in the creation of theatrical work.
2. Community professionals – aimed at those working with refugees and migrant communities who are interested in developing new creative approaches to integration. These sessions aim to provide a practical understanding of how to use creative techniques to engage hard to reach groups, such as migrants and refugees, and will provide a useful ‘toolkit’ for practitioners to use in
their work with communities.
All training labs are developed in consultation with the primary participants to ensure there is a strong and tangible fit with group needs. Training can either be delivered in London, UK or we can visit your organisation to deliver the training.
