Organizing workshops, plays, and groups for others is a rewarding thing. Sometimes though, it leaves a paradoxical longing for connection- with peers, with others who can relate to the good and bad sides, and find collaborations and things in common. Recharge by simply being together.

And the simplest thing to do was - let’s hang out with the peers in the spaceholders field. That’s what we did last week, with and

🌿 Find your voice. Feel what’s real.

This June, six people from Bulgaria joined Authentic Voices, a 9-day Erasmus+ youth exchange in Latvia focused on mental health, self-expression and connection.

Through music, voice practices, improvisation, movement and embodiment, participants explored new ways of expressing themselves while strengthening confidence, emotional awareness, listening, public speaking and authentic communication. 🎶

The project wasn’t about performing perfectly or having the “right” answer. It was about creating space to experiment, reflect, connect with others and listen a little more closely to what is happening inside.

And judging by the words participants brought home, something stayed with them. 💚 Thank you, KALM International Trainings

Authentic Voices was organized by Kalm International Trainings (LV) in partnership with Freedom Universe (PL), Creatosphere (BG), Associação Poesia p’ra todos (PT) and WAKE Foundation (NL).

Act of Change is officially coming to a close: but the work definitely doesn’t end here. 🎭

What started as a 7-day Erasmus+ Training Course in Shumen grew into **Bulgaria’s first Legislative Theatre performance**, bringing together 24 youth workers, educators, facilitators and community practitioners from eight countries to explore how theatre can move beyond representation and become a tool for participation and change.

And because a project like this should leave something behind, it didn’t stop with the performance.

📘 and Dr. Gabriel Vivas-Martinez created the **Act of Change guidebook** , a practical step-by-step resource on Legislative Theatre for youth workers, educators and facilitators.

🎥 documented the journey in our **project video**, capturing what it looked like to launch Legislative Theatre in Bulgaria.

📱 and produced a series of **short educational videos** explaining the method and some of its essential principles.

📄 And the proposals developed with spect-actors, secretaries and legal support travelled beyond the theatre and into the municipality itself.

Act of Change was never only about putting on a show. It was about asking what happens when the audience is given the possibility to act.

The project may be closing. The method, the resources, the proposals and the people carrying them forward are not. 💙

All resources are available through the link in our bio.

Do I have a place here?

Belonging isn't about showing up to every meeting. It's about being noticed when you arrive, remembered when you return, and included in the stories being told. The people who feel most at home are often the ones least able to see who still feels outside.

A few days ago we shared a sneak peek of the documentary "The 9 aspects of communities" - more specifically the part about Purpose: why communities exist, and why people actually choose to stay. Ready for a test? Swipe through Purpose Bingo. one card for the healthy signals, one for the warning signs, and mark every square that sounds like your community. Five in a row on the healthy card? You're doing something right. Five in a row on the warning card? Might be time for an honest conversation (a reminder that the central square is free)

Feel free to check the different communities you are part of - including your university, workplace, or perhaps NGO - and share the results with us!

Purpose is just one of 9 aspects every community needs to grow healthily, sustainably, and authentically. The full ABC Guidebook covers all of them, with the signals to look for and the exercises to work through them.

Go grab it: link in our bio or here: https://shorturl.at/XfTnU

The guidebook is one of the outcomes of our Erasmus+ Training Course Art of Building Communities, where 24 community builders from 8 countries gathered to explore the model of 9 Aspects of Community, created by , and we hope it becomes a practical companion for everyone who wants to build communities where people genuinely want to belong, contribute, and grow.

Some communities say "you can be yourself here": but the moment someone actually does things differently, the system pushes back.

This second sneak peek of our ABC documentary looks at that uncomfortable truth, and at what autonomy really means: not chaos, not control, but trust, clarity, and enough structure to move like yourself.

What happens when theatre leaves the stage and enters public life? 🎭

This music video follows Act of Change, the international Erasmus+ project that brought Legislative Theatre to Bulgaria. In Shumen, youth workers, facilitators and educators from across Europe learned how to turn lived experiences into scenes, invite audiences to intervene, and transform ideas from the stage into concrete proposals for change.

The project culminated in Bulgaria’s first Legislative Theatre performance, where the audience became part of the action and proposals emerging from the process were submitted to the Municipality of Shumen.

A week of listening, experimenting, rehearsing and creating: captured through movement, music and the people who made it happen.

What if theatre could do more than tell stories - what if it could help change policies? 🎭⚖️

Our new educational playlist introduces you to **Legislative Theatre**: how the method works, how a performance is built, how audiences become active participants, and how ideas developed on stage can be transformed into concrete proposals for social and political change.

Created as part of **Act of Change**, the series draws on the experience of youth workers, facilitators and trainers who explored Theatre of the Oppressed through hands-on practice, reflection and Bulgaria’s first Legislative Theatre performance.

Whether you are an educator, facilitator, youth worker, artist or simply curious about participatory theatre, this playlist is a great place to start.

🎬 Watch the full educational series through the link in our bio.
