Following the Granada meeting for the MOVE project (30 September - 01 October), the partners of the European REVIVAL project have just gathered once again, this time in Madrid at the headquarters of the Juan Ciudad Foundation. The meeting took place in a very collaborative atmosphere, and above all with the great pleasure of being able to meet in person after more than eighteen months of working remotely.

The meeting was attended by representatives of all the centres involved in the project, with the exception of the Irish partner (St John of God Community Services - Dublin), which nevertheless followed both meetings via video-conference link.

REVIVAL is the latest in a series of European projects being promoted by the 'Hospitality Europe' Brussels office and is designed to promote the inclusion of people with disabilities through their participation in artistic and cultural activities, particularly in the field of theatre and drama.

The partners include the Order and the Sisters Hospitallers Centres in Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Poland, Austria and Germany, as well as the Hospitality Europe office itself (Belgium) and the Aratos Theatre Company (Greece). In 2022 and 2023, the project will continue with further transnational meetings and a collective mobility event in which people with disabilities will be involved in creative and cultural activities in the participating centres.

The REVIVAL project has been funded with support from the European  Commission.
