Tiivistelmä
In the present work, an artistic mediation project has been carried out with a group of adolescents with functional diversity, using the Service-Learning methodology as a basis. Through this methodology, it has been possible to put into practice the knowledge and skills acquired during a university career in community service.
This work aims to address social inclusion, one of the contemporary problems of our society, from an artistic perspective. For this, a series of artistic workshops have been carried out with the chosen group, in which it has been possible to see how art has acted as therapy for adolescents, developing their social and communication skills, the expression of their feelings and emotions, etc., and, as a mediator in the environment in which they live. Finally, after the workshops, artistic work was performed in collaboration with the students to make social inclusion more visible and real.
Throughout this work, we will be able to see the development of the project, from an investigation of the social inclusion of people with functional diversity and the means to deal with this problem, to the implementation of an inclusive project, through the art of seven adolescents with special educational needs.
