Psycho-Social Empowerment

Psycho-social empowerment is a holistic process aimed at strengthening the capacity of individuals and communities to manage their own circumstances. In this course, participants explore how expressive art forms—drawing, music, dance, drama, and writing—affect human psychology and wellbeing. The five stages of psychodrama therapy are examined through practical exercises. Group support principles, the facilitator role, and active listening skills are covered systematically. The course was developed within the WeART Syria project, which aims to empower Syrian women through art and culture.
