Clown Me In, known as Awrad Association, was created for the purpose of spreading laughter, providing relief to disadvantaged communities, addressing trauma, discrimination and environmental problems and abuses through clowning, laughter and social therapy workshops. We also aim to take the arts outside of the capital, giving disadvantaged and/or rural communities access to arts and culture. Clown Me In has worked around the world, in Mexican, Lebanese, Palestinian, Indian, Brazilian, Moroccan, Jordanian, Syrian, Greek and British communities.
We develop our activities in the cities of Guaira, Orlandia, Miguelopolis and Ipua, contributing directly to the integral development of children and teenagers, aiming at the improvement of social indicators, especially those related to low professional qualification, drug addiction, early pregnancy and school dropout. We believe that articulated, transdisciplinary and inclusive actions, embracing family and community, enable the strengthening of values such as ethics, responsibility, self confidence, self esteem, character, discipline, social awareness, collaboration, respect, pacifism and socialization.
Its mission is to promote the dignity of the person through development activities, with special attention to education. ACDI recognizes the uniqueness of each person, who cannot be reduced to a number within an anonymous category such as "the poor, the sick, the disabled". Furthermore, every person and every community represents a resource, regardless of their vulnerability. This is why ACDI works to help people in becoming aware of their own value and dignity.
