Description:

JAM – Jeunesse Artistique du Monde, is a project which intends to promote youth participation and creativity by using different forms of art. Our idea is a long-term process and aims to establish a sustainable network of youth organizations in the world using arts as a tool to promote intercultural dialogue and solidarity.
The first edition of JAM was based on music and painting and the main theme was peace. With this new project we want to raise awareness on the topic of poverty in occasion of the European Year to combat social exclusion and poverty.

The tools we want to use are still related to arts, but this time we want to focus on sculpure and different kind of installations made by recycled materials.
The topic of the project is “city-dressing”: we want to invite volunteers and local youth to create installations in town to inform citizens about the chosen issue. At the same time we wish to sesitize people on global warming and other ecological aspects in relation with the Millennium goals.
