On Friday, October 22, 2021, the founders of Kalliergon, Christina Tzialla and Vasiliki Kateri, responded with joy to the invitation of a representative of K.A.NE. (Youth Social Development) of Kalamata and participated as speakers/animators in the innovative European program, the ATENEA PROJECT.

ATENEA-Theater Autobiographical is an Erasmus+ project with the aim of promoting European cooperation between different partners and adult education through specific innovative pedagogical approaches and autobiographical theater with the ultimate goal of addressing human vulnerability.

Each speech, a soul deposition, was about the theme of the program "FROM REALITY TO FICTIONAL NARRATIVE, Second stage, the ATENEA methodology".  In front of a multicultural audience coming from Greece, Spain, Italy, Germany, Lithuania and Slovenia, the speakers submitted their personal stories with the aim of inspiring, motivating, exchanging feelings and feeling, once again, the sweet taste of sharing your truth as a member of the wider society of people.

​

Of particular interest was the speech of Christina Tzialla’s who in practice through shocking narratives of her experiential aspects, with her two plays that have already been published and one that is under publication (in Greek and English), was the most tangible example of how reality is transformed into fictional narration.

It is worth noting that in the Learning, Educational and Teaching Activity (LTTA) of the Erasmus+ Atenea project an essential role was played by the Lithuanian partner of the organizers was held by the ENTRI team.
