The training is based on non-formal educational methodology, especially using and practicing RMA. The Reciprocal Maieutic Approach (RMA) is a dialectic method of inquiry for empowerment of communities and individuals that was put into practice by Dolci from the 50s onwards. It can be defined as a “process of collective exploration that takes, as a departure point, the experience and the intuition of individuals” (Dolci, 1996). This practice is based on asking, exploring, and shared creativity. The maieutic workshop requires individuals to question themselves, to reveal themselves to others, and to undertake a journey of joint discovery, analysis, experimentation, and collective creative education.
