The workshops completes the study, exchange and research work done with the CROSSINGS project and focuses on the 3 issues that emerged from the discussions: languages, identity and awareness. With these beneficiaries, supported by 3 professionals, Teatro Magro intends to invest in a possible professionalization.

Young asylum seekers are encouraged to participate also thanks to the activation of a scholarship that gives value and motivation to their presence, an economic recognition of their commitment between training and work.
