Riepilogo:This study explored the use of art as a teaching strategy with internally displaced adults. Two curricula were pilot tested with five groups of adults in Colombia, and follow-up interviews were conducted with facilitators and participants. Feedback showed that artistic activities allowed participants to reflect upon their experiences, understand the underlying principles in key biblical texts, and build relationships. Artistic activities also sensitized facilitators toward the struggles that internally displaced adults deal with every day.
