Flows of Life: Immigrants and refugees in search of an identity

Since racism is rooted in othering , the call for belonging and inclusion seems to be the only sustainable solution to the problem. Therefore,he main concepts of the project are identity and otherness, which have a dialectical relationship . As many disciplines(philosophy, psychology, ethics) advocate, the concept of the Self requires the existence of the Other as thecounterpart entity required for defining the Self. Therefore, we approach the sense of self by approaching the other and vice versa. For this reason we are going to explore the cultural identities of the participants, the way they are formed , the elements that make us similar or different to others. Once we establish who we are and who others are, once we acknowledge what unites us and the fact that identities are subject to change, we become open minded, culturally aware, we develop tolera nce, respect to diversity, along with the sense of common European belonging
