Our Mission

Our mission is to create spaces where people can learn, connect, question and create together, developing new ways of engaging with diversity and conflict that support peaceful and constructive conflict resolution, inclusion, justice and solidarity. Through peace education, theatre and participatory learning, we support individuals, communities and organisations to build the knowledge, skills and relationships needed to live and work together across difference

Our Philosophy

We believe that meaningful social change begins with individual change, and that the way we relate to ourselves and to one another shapes the communities and societies we create. We believe in the inherent worth and potential of every human being, and in our capacity to learn, grow, care and contribute.

We see people as fundamentally social beings, shaped by our relationships, communities and contexts. We therefore create spaces where people can meet one another, share experiences, question assumptions and develop new ways of relating and working together.

We believe that difference is a source of learning, and that conflict, when approached with curiosity, care and openness, can create possibilities for dialogue, understanding and transformation. Through theatre, storytelling, dialogue and participatory learning, people are not simply recipients of knowledge or solutions; they are active participants and creators of knowledge, stories and possibilities.

Our practice is grounded in dignity, justice, solidarity, inclusion and nonviolence, and in the belief that when people are given meaningful space to participate, they can shape their relationships, their communities and the societies they are part of.

Our Approach

Our approach is participatory, experiential and creative. We create spaces where people are not passive recipients, but active participants in their own learning and in shaping the process.

We use theatre, storytelling, dialogue, games, reflection and other creative practices to connect learning with lived experience. These methods invite people to explore questions rather than simply receive answers, to encounter different perspectives, and to experiment with new ways of communicating and responding to conflict.

We work with people rather than for them, recognising the knowledge, experience and creativity they already bring. Our programmes are adapted to the people, communities and contexts we work with, and are developed through listening, collaboration and reflection.

Across our work, we draw on approaches including Peace Education, Conflict Transformation, Theatre of the Oppressed, Forum Theatre, Playback Theatre, participatory theatre and non-formal education.
