Brief description of the project:
We work together with a cultural community center. The community center has a library, a cinema and a room for theater. The goal of the community center is to give the people of Cusco a place with the right atmosphere to give them access to cultural activities. The main target group is children and youth in difficult situations. But the center is for all the people of Cusco, young and old, rich and poor, in order to get a mix where people can learn something from each other and to bring people together.

Activities:
In the cultural community center, workshops for theater, dance, mime, clowns etc are organized. You can give a workshop and supervise a group with the goal of a performance at the cultural center, open to the public.

There is a movie theater showing films daily. The films are shown in cycles with a specific theme. After the film, the film is analyzed and you talk with the people about the subject of the film and how this issue relates to their lives and social reflection. There is also a library. The library is forming a collection of books on general cultural topics and literary works. In addition there are 6 computers for the youth to learn how to work with computers, how the internet works, to do research or homework and how to look up information in a secured internet environment (the Internet as a learning environment).
