Partaking Details
Partaking is an association working both at national and international levels. It cooperates with research institutions, schools, and other associations; its initiatives are mainly based on the use of visual participatory techniques with the aim of triggering changes, either individual or social, in the actors (individuals or communities) involved in its projects. Our association deals with those segments of society that due to linguistic or cultural differences, financial or social difficulties have fewer opportunities of self-expression and of actively participating in the identification and resolution of issues relevant to their community. These activities must be considered within a holistic approach to knowledge, where experts and subjects involved share their experiences to promote a horizontal knowledge-making process.MISSION: By means of cooperation between art and academic research, we aim at building up cultural bridges where there are no connections between the elements of society, with the specific goal of promoting the points of view of disadvantaged segments of society.Partaking's strategy is two-pronged. On the one hand, it is practical and aims at:1. Stimulating reflection and debate while involving and triggering interactions between heterogeneous groups of society often distant from each other.2. Promoting at individual and collective levels the empowerment of the persons involved, stimulating them in finding their own solutions to problems that they have previously identified.3. Based on the points of view expressed during participatory projects, informing the political institutions in the policy making process.On the other hand, the strategy of the association is informative/educational and aims at promoting knowledge about different cultures by means of exchange and cooperation projects between people.
