Projects and Collaborations

We continuously work in project format with varying structures. In terms of duration, collaborations can range from a few months to several years. We operate both locally, nationally, and internationally. What all projects have in common is that they enrich and develop the activities, focusing on promoting and safeguarding the oral storytelling tradition. We aim to stimulate oral storytelling both as a cultural form and as a means of communication and exchange of experiences among people.
