What we do
At La Xixa, we create and develop Creative Social Innovation actions for Social Transformation.
We do this through training, public performances, and research. We systematize experiences and create practical, open, and free educational and consultative materials and resources.
We operate in a wide variety of fields such as culture, education, health, activism, and sustainability.
Objectives of
All Our Actions:
To question, analyze, and reflectively assess the information and situations that surround us. This allows us to develop a deeper and more diverse vision and to question the stereotypes we live with.
They Foster Critical Spirit
To create spaces where each voice is heard in a safe and democratic manner, taking into account the diversity of opinions and perspectives of each group or individual.
They Promote Inclusion, Participation, and Diversity
Theatrical, bodily, and experiential tools are incredibly effective at eliciting emotions, visible and invisible oppressions, and allow us to reflect from a different position than we usually do.
They Invite Transformation Through Experiential Means
From an intersectional perspective, we fight against all types of discrimination based on gender, cultural origin, age, ableism, documentation, religion, sexual orientation... in favor of coexistence in diversity.
They Fight Against Any Form of Discrimination
"We believe that lifelong education is the key to moving towards a world with equal opportunities."

Handbooks & Guides Practical Resources
Our experiences in trainings and activities allow us to systematize content and knowledge that we turn into accessible resources (in the form of handbooks, guides, or courses) to serve as inspiration and consultation for professionals or the general public. These resources are free and often developed in collaboration with other organizations at the European level.
They usually include step-by-step descriptions so you can develop inclusive activities with your groups. Depending on the publication, you may find guides aimed at teachers from preschool to secondary school, social workers, adult education trainers, third-sector professionals, and public administration... Among the resources, you will also find online courses and board games.
