A.R.T. Fusion

A.R.T. Fusion is a youth organization that offers a realistic perspective over the struggling problems of our Romanian and global society nowadays. We want to change the attitudes of the people in our global community, together with other society members, to help find solutions to the problems that the community is facing.
A.R.T. Fusion’s mission is to create social change by encouraging members of the community to take responsibility. A.R.T. Fusion’s activity is focused on two dimensions: social responsibility and global responsibility.  The methodology that we use includes participative arts methods, living library, street campaigning and global education.
A.R.T Fusion’s vision is a world where each of us is aware of their role in society at a global level and brings a contribution to the community they want to live in.At national level, A.R.T. Fusion works with different vulnerable groups (Roma people, prisoners, refugees, institutionalised youth, LGBTQ+ groups, poor and excluded young people, etc.), general population as well as professionals working in different sectors with diverse groups using non-formal educational methods (Theatre of the Oppressed methods, Street campaigning, Human Rights and Global Education etc). These methods aim to empower oppressed groups as well as create awareness of other members of the communities about various social and global problems.
Since 2010, we have developed, with the support of external experts and long term collaborators, educational materials, manuals on street campaigning, theatre of the oppressed methods, global education, living library and sensitivity learning.
