About the "NextGenGirls" project?
The NextGenGirls project is a creative journey of discovery for girls between 10 and 15 years old, focusing on their own identity. Far removed from traditional gender roles and societal pressure, KRASS e.V. offers a safe space to artistically explore the question "Who am I – and who could I be?"
At the heart of the project is character design: Participants develop their own characters, which serve as a reflection of their personal strengths, desires, and dreams. A variety of methods are used, including collage, drawing, photography, video, and even upcycling. The goal is to find their own style, strengthen their self-confidence, and give expression to their own voice. In addition to the artistic work in a small group, joint excursions and a final public exhibition foster exchange and empowerment among the young women.
