1) INDRA:
The Anna Lindh Foundation is supporting the engagement of a group of young Palestinian participants from Al-Harah Theater, who were engaged in a process of sharing and dialogue with their colleagues in Derry, Northern Ireland in the build up to the Congress in July 2013.
The 2013 Indra Global Congress provided a platform for the expression of groups of young people from existing and potential Indra centres who came together and shared their practice, ideas and experience. There was a wide range of workshop activities, training opportunities, sharing of performances, speakers, discussion groups and social activities, culminating in a shared celebration/performance event at the end of the week. Derry is the UK City of Culture for 2013.
The young people participating at the INDRA 2013 congress created a song called "Happy Accidents":
