The article focuses on the role of the theatre in promoting processes of inclusion in non-artistic contexts of intervention such as Development Cooperation and Mental Health and Psychosocial Support. In particular, it refers to the interventions of ‘awareness creation’ and ‘capacity building’ developed according to the methodology of Social Community Theatre at the two extremes of the migratory journey: Ethiopia as a starting point, with the local population of potential migrants; Calabria as arrival, with the young unaccompanied migrants, guests of the reception centers. The highlands of rural Ethiopia and the Calabrian coasts of Crotone are two geographical points, which, although not actually the real extremes of the same migratory journey, constitute topical places of the imaginary and of the European discourse on migration. The article highlights the challenges and the innovation achieved in terms of theatrical methodology. Moreover, in the dimension of intersectoral partnership it indicates an area that implies the development of theatrical forms of intervention and new professions that deal with artistic care of the community.
