DRAMA FOR YOUNG REFUGEES, a fictional drama structure for young refugees

4 Lessons 31 Chapters
  • Drama creates possibilities for contextualised learning – problem, themes, event can be seen within a specific context and from the perspective of people affected by them.
  • Drama helps us in the deeper understanding of certain problems.
  • Working with the problem in the focus of our work might be emotionally and/or intellectually challenging and demanding – there is always our humanity at stake. However, this opens up the potential for deeper learning and understanding of our societies and ourselves in it.
  • We look at these problems from different aspects and different points of view, frequently changing perspective during the drama work.
  • We build a fictive but detailed context: we build a story by creating specific situations.
  • On one hand, fiction helps distancing and protecting.
  • On the other hand, fiction helps deep engagement. Drama happens in our head by activating our imagination.
