SMALL SIZE - BIG CITIZENS
Widening of the European Network for the diffusion of the performing arts for Early Years
September 2009 – August 2014
Mission statement:
Young children are "big" citizens and subjects of rights.
Aim of the project:
1. to give claim to young children's right to enjoy the Arts to be part of the artistic processes that nourish their emotional intelligence and help them develop harmoniously their sensibilities and competences.
2. to spread the exchange of ideas on performing arts for the early years (0-6 years of age) within Europe, creating a "territory" of meeting, exchange and knowledge in which we can work together on the development and promotion of projects, events and initiatives.“
