Exhibition "Behind a Face"
The "Behind a Face" is a therapeutic intervention project in the field of Occupational Therapy that proposes a deep exploration of the life stories of people experiencing homelessness (PSSA) to guide them towards processes of positive identification, using the evocation of memories as a vehicle for the reconstruction of their identity. The process is carried out through participatory and innovative methodologies such as creative approaches, photovoice, and digital storytelling. One of the specific objectives of the project is to raise awareness in the community about the problem of discrimination and stigma faced by PSSA, culminating in a final event, in the form of an exhibition, which aims to deconstruct prejudices. In this exhibition, we aim to give voice to the project participants, sharing the messages they wish to convey.
