Agents of Change
Sistema Cyprus
Nicosia, Cyprus
Description
The volunteers will take part in activities where music is a mean to promote social inclusion. The activities will aim to bring together young people participating at Sistema Cyprus with young people from other socio-economic groups and form friendly social ties through their experience of co-participating in community music activities. It is expected that this will give the opportunity to empower social inclusion, social connectedness, creation of a sense of belonging within supportive peer methods, the opportunities of development of a positive self-concept, self-acceptance, self-confidence and high esteem, development of communication and social skills. Volunteers will gain valuable experience and competences which are essential for improving themselves at a personal and professional level. Through the year, the musicians including potential instrumental teachers and music professionals will develop their artistry and interconnect with the needs of our diverse society.
