Creating a better future for communities through research

Cross "X" Generation Conversations

Purpose of the Project

Aiding Dramatic Change in Development (ADCID), the Centre for Community Based Research and Niagara Community Partners are partnering in a community development project in Niagara Falls, beginning in October, 2011.The purpose of the project is to facilitate cross-generational dialogue and relationship building among adults and youth in newcomer communities.

The project will use Socio-Drama Topography - an arts based engagement process that combines community mapping with non-verbal dialogue and socio-drama exercises. This process allows participants to explore and discuss social issues and work towards change in their community.

Socio-Drama Topography was developed by ADCID during their 7 years of work with rural and township communities in South Africa.
