Theatre that transform neighborhoods
George Graham Global Foundation – Enjoying Diversity is a non-profit organization that harnesses the transformative power of theatre and storytelling to promote intercultural Diversity and societal well-being, mainly focusing on neighborhood development. George Graham Global Foundation – Enjoying Diversity firmly believes that theatre can bring about significant positive change in neighborhoods as a medium of healing, empowerment, and social transformation.
Our Vision
We envision clusters of neigborhoods where people of different cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives can live together in harmony, respect, and mutual support. We believe that theatre can help create a good climate within each one, between each other, and jointly towards the world we are given to care for.
Our Mission
Our Mission is to use theatre and storytelling to:
- Foster intercultural dialogue and understanding
- Address social and environmental issues and challenges

- Enhance well-being and resilience in neighborhoods
- Celebrate Diversity and creativity
- Shape Agenda 2030 initiatives
Our Approach
We embrace a participatory and inclusive approach to theatre and storytelling at George Graham Global Foundation- Enjoying Diversity. We actively involve people from various walks of life, especially those who are marginalized, vulnerable, or underrepresented. We aim to create a safe and welcoming space where everyone’s stories, experiences, and aspirations are reflected in our original plays, workshops, and events. We also foster collaborations with other organizations and stakeholders who share our vision and values. We focus on a ‘learning towards well-being’ approach, prioritizing children and youth’s inner and mental health.
