Storytelling / Art-Therapy Methodologies (cuentería)
Storytelling and art-therapy methods, including the local oral tradition of cuentería, are used in psychosocial support programs for youth affected by conflict in Colombia. The book describes them as helping foster healing, resilience and positive narratives about the future within their specific cultural context.
Under the Human Component's 'Experiential' variable, the book describes 'designing educational and psychosocial support programs for youth affected by conflict in Colombia, undertaken by organizations like Fundación Mi Sangre,' noting this 'requires sensitivity to their diverse and traumatic experiential backgrounds, often incorporating art therapy, music, and storytelling methodologies rooted in local oral traditions like cuentería to foster healing, resilience, and positive future narratives.' It restates the same case immediately after: 'By incorporating art therapy, music, and storytelling rooted in local oral traditions like cuentería, these programs directly address the deep impact of lived experiences,' demonstrating 'how understanding experiential awareness can foster healing, resilience, and the development of positive future narratives within a specific cultural context.'
