To See and Be Seen: A Toolkit for Facilitating Arts-Based Workshops with Refugee Youth

  

To See and Be Seen is a best practices guideline for those who intend to facilitate an arts-based workshop with refugee youth. By using a critical refugee studies and youth-focused arts-based participatory action framework, the aim of this project-paper is to create an adaptable resource that enables facilitators to critically, ethically, and reflexively execute an arts engagement workshop of their own. The accompanying toolkit translates the six primary subsections (articulating intentions, workshop facilitation, planning considerations, recruitment of participants, workshop preparation, and workshop substance) into an experiential practice-based resource for future facilitators.
