October 2024: FAIS – Fashion & Arts in Inclusion Settings
The FAIS project, a two-week ESC TEAM initiative hosted by Tur Cos Ta Posibel in partnership with KIA’s women’s wing and Artisa, engaged volunteers in fashion, design, and art activities to promote inclusion and personal empowerment. Following the success of the AMIS project, FAIS focused on providing women in prison, particularly those aged 18-30, with opportunities to develop creative skills, fostering a sense of self-expression and confidence. Volunteers worked closely with the women, promoting empathy and inclusion while creating lasting impact through collaborative art and design activities.
