Youth exchange
Beyond Words; The Art of Critical Thinking
About the project
Beyond Words is a youth exchange about critical thinking, debate and public speaking, built around theatre. It is coordinated by Innoviera from Thessaloniki, and ArtInspire is one of the partners, together with organisations from Italy, Türkiye, Germany and the Netherlands.
The exchange took place in Thessaloniki, Greece, from 20 to 28 November 2025, with 36 young people aged 18–30, six group leaders and a theatre facilitator. At its centre was TEATER, a simulation game in which participants act as advocates, analysts and debaters, ending with a public performance in a local theatre. Each national team led a workshop: the Estonian group from ArtInspire prepared psychological games about emotional resilience.
The methods and the participants' reflections are collected in the booklet “Beyond Words”, and every team runs a local workshop after the exchange.
Funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union (Key Action 1, youth exchange).
