[.lightbox] ABOUT RAP:I:STAN [.lightbox]

‍

[.lightbox]RAP:I:STAN is a platform for young people with refugee and migrant backgrounds who have creative potential and an interest in artistic expression, providing them with a space in Danish cultural life. RAP:I:STAN works to build the necessary bridges, fostering relationships and experiences that ensure Denmark does not lose a generation of new young citizens by excluding them from cultural and societal participation. We offer an alternative approach to integration by using Hip Hop's art forms – music, dance, and rap – as tools to engage young people with the society around them. They learn to express their thoughts and opinions and participate in communities through collaborative projects. The project has demonstrated impressive results and has been recognized by the European Commission as a strong example of how the cultural sector can contribute to the integration of refugees.[.lightbox]
