Methodology
Intimacy - Interaction - Power - 'Intimacy - Interaction - Power' was developed by the staff of In Touch, Amsterdam. Its aim is to foster social integration at different levels, to help people build and maintain healthy relationships with a special focus on close relations. Beyond its main pillars — empowerment, intimacy and social interaction – there are other important elements, such as process-oriented learning, critical thinking, inclusion and systemic focus.
Intimacy is the focal point of this methodology and approach, to which we do not provide one primary definition, but rather encourage the group to explore relationships, intimacy from different angles.
We aim to learn skills and practices that young people later can apply in their social and sexual relationships: learning together how to identify our own patterns and characteristics of intimate situations, spot unhealthy and unwanted patterns. In this method, the aim is to uncover the dynamics of power and to learn to express emotions honestly.
