Direct beneficiaries: Learners and Schools

In order to achieve our objectives arepp:Theatre for Life works in close partnership with each specific school where we perform in order to ensure that beyond the intervention there is continued participation, follow-up and support for the learners. We can reach up to 200 schools per performance team per year. This number changes depending on the number of teams.

Indirect beneficiaries: Other Organisations

arepp:Theatre for Life acknowledges that it, itself, cannot provide ‘hands on’ follow up and support beyond the day at the school. Therefore, to ensure that such necessary support and follow-up is provided, arepp:Theatre for Life contacts, networks, and partners with as many different local organisations – issue related NGOs and CBOs, clinics, local government departments, district heads, and local authorities - as possible in the communities were the schools are sited, and arrange the tours in conjunction with them. The tours are always arranged with at least one other group, and complement their programmes, as well as the programmes and policy of the relevant government departments.

In this way arepp:Theatre for Life facilitates networking between these organisations and the schools, complimenting the local organisations that work with the issues and making the members of the audience aware of them and their potential for support and aid.
