PERIOD

From 2014

OBJECTIVES

Proposed by the French Association Enfance, it aims to promote and create a network between children from different countries around the world who maintain contact through the exchange of letters and drawings.

To encourage children to get to know each other and to get to know each other in the main events of daily life, in the many meanings typical of the different countries of the world.

TARGET

Cultural exchanges between children from very different countries. 

ACTIVITIES CARRIED OUT

During the year, the pupils of reference’s schools in Ecuador, South Sudan, Borgo S. Pietro di Crema Primary School, Zlaquà Salé Primary School (Morocco) and reference’s schools in Sudan, nursery and primary schools in Italy, prepared drawings of their daily life to send to a child in another country.

In 2014 (23 November 2014) in 2016 (25 November-2 December 2016), in 2018 (16 to 20 May 2018), editions of the exhibition of the works made by children from the different countries involved in the project, in which OVCI also participated, were organised in France (ARLES).

Subsequently, the drawings sent by OVCI were published on our institutional website.

In 2019 we joined the sixteenth edition of the project, through a selection of drawings from Ecuador.

The drawings were supposed to be exhibited during an exhibition set up in France by the ENFANCE Association between May and June 2020, but the exhibition was postponed to a later date due to the COVID 19 epidemic.
