Nuestras principales actividades son:

Actualmente hacemos 20 talleres regulares cada semana en distintos lugares.

2- Nos preocupamos mucho en pensar, sistematizar y llenar de contenido nuestras acciones y por eso nos dedicamos también a la investigación. Hacemos avaluaciones educativas,  escribimos artículos sobre el sector educativo y el arte comunitario y acabamos de publicar nuestro primer libro: “Las artes des de la educación social. La experiencia Basket Beat”.
También realizamos 150h de formación cada año en grados y masters de varias universidades y 100h de formación para claustros y profesionales del ámbito de la educación.
3- Por último tenemos una orquesta de pelotas de básquet como proyecto artístico donde participan conjuntamente músicos profesionales y jóvenes en situación de vulnerabilidad que han formado parte de talleres.

CIEUX develops two actions:

1) International civic service

The association CIEUX is working with the French Civic Service Agency (ASC) to recruit volunteers aged 18 to 26 for international missions.
These young people can take part in concrete actions abroad supporting all forms of local development. Hosting structures are developing projects in different fields : educational, cultural, health, social or economic.

2) Community Dialogues on Diversity

CIEUX aims to bring together members of civic, Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jewish, and Muslim communities, in order to promote living together while observing the principles of secularism.

The association organizes local dialogues on diversity between different religious and civic communities (participatory bodies) and the inhabitants of the same neighbourhood. In each locality, town, city or district, the meetings are prepared by the communities, independently of each other, on a specific theme (for example freedom, fraternity, globalization, education...) without proselytism or syncretism. Afterwards, an inter-community dialogue is established, allowing for a better knowledge and appreciation of each other, while respecting differences.

Our association encourages places of worship in their efforts to guarantee the citizenship of their faithful. Before each interreligious dialogue, the association CIEUX invites the faithful of the places of worship to work for the respect of fundamental liberties and civic behaviour, by organising preparatory civic meetings on human rights.

The CIEUX association aims to reduce negative prejudices and fears, factors of hatred and xenophobia, which arise from a mutual misunderstanding of religions and the values carried by religious and civic communities. The association CIEUX fights against racial and/or ethnic discrimination by inviting the faithful of places of worship in the same locality to dialogue with agnostic and atheist people of good will in their neighbourhood.

Two meetings are organized per year and per local antenna, the reports are put online on the association's website and a space for exchange is set up to continue the debate and prepare the next meetings. Apart from these inter-community meetings, and the preparatory meetings within each community that precede them, we are keen to maintain a strong link with the local partners through joint actions and relationships.

The association CIEUX helps religions to live together harmoniously, by offering the faithful places of worship to experience pluralism.
