The fundamental aim of this project is to present unique groups of young artists from regions of the world affected by various tragedies - natural disasters, political conflicts, homelessness and poverty as well as to show that art gives the chance for these children to overcome traumatic experiences and break free of destructive limitations. We believe this to be an important step towards shaping the future of the participants of the project and their communities. During the Brave Kids Project we would like to present the world’s cultural diversity to the citizens of Wroclaw and international audience thus encouraging tolerance and their openness to one another.

First edition of Brave Kids took place between 24 June and 12 July 2010.
We succeeded in creating the platform for an open dialog between children from regions of the world affected by various tragedies. The project helped to believe in art as a means of overcoming traumatic experiences and destructive limitations. Dancing orphaned children from Zimbabwe, Mizero Group from Rwanda - Tutsi and Hutu who sing to spread peace, Nepal Children from Rokpa Orphanage with their amazing theatrical performance, Swedish youth from Rudolf Steiner School, refugees from Chechnya and Ingushetia with their traditional dances, and a group of children from Poland/Wroclaw - all of them met to work on a common performance.
Brave Kids 2011took place from 22 June till 11 July.
