Our past projects cover a variety of areas, including: Cultural exchanges; we have organized exchange programs that promote intercultural dialogue and facilitate learning and collaboration between young people from different countries. Youth education projects: we have developed educational initiatives that seek to strengthen the skills and competencies of young people, providing them with opportunities for personal growth and development. Local courses and workshops for unemployed young people: we have carried out training programs aimed at unemployed young people, providing them with tools and resources to improve their employability. International work collaborations: we have established alliances with organizations from different countries to collaborate in joint projects, sharing knowledge and experiences for the benefit of young people. Training initiatives for arts workers and project managers: we have developed training programs for arts professionals and project managers to strengthen their skills and knowledge in specific areas. Local and international volunteering: we have coordinated, hosted and sent volunteers both locally and internationally.
INCA seeks to promote culture and art for the transformation and participation of young people. The organization aims to improve the quality of life of communities and young people using culture as a tool for development and inclusion. In the Raval community, we participate in all cultural activities and share our artistic and social perspective. We also belong to the Consell de Joventut de Barcelona. In our community, we actively promote culture and social development by encouraging participation and exchange among diverse groups and young people. At the Llinars del Vallès residential center, we carry out European projects. The INCA Catalunya association promotes respect for cultural differences and values such as solidarity, equality, responsibility and respect.
At the local level, INCA organizes training courses and educational activities for young people, mainly for those at risk of social exclusion, as well as offering services to groups of artists. INCA is also active in the social fabric of the city of Barcelona, collaborating regularly with other cultural and educational entities. Internationally, INCA has more than 40 official partners in Europe. INCA Catalunya has carried out mobilities such as exchanges, local and transnational initiatives, contact seminars, capacity building, training courses and evaluation meetings. INCA has also carried out international projects funded by the European Youth Foundation of the Council of Europe and has carried out a project in the framework of the former Grundtvig program.
The aim is to train a generation of youth workers who can speak directly to young people in their meeting places and accompany them on a path of participation in which mobility is only one scenario. It seeks to improve the skills of youth workers and encourage their participation at the local level through a variety of mobility and continuous training opportunities. This is achieved by strengthening pathways of social inclusion and non-formal learning, as well as fostering participation and active citizenship among young people. At the same time, operators are encouraged to discuss and compare issues related to youth work.
