This training project is crucial for understanding this phenomenon, this way of communicating, in order to expand our creative capacity and our professional background.

It is also essential to engage in an activity that excites, increases knowledge, and puts theoretical material into practice. Above all, it must be guided by a facilitator in a supportive role to facilitate the adoption of this way of storytelling.
