Our common mission is strengthening the role of contemporary dance in shaping more diverse, equitable and sustainable models through:
Advocacy and research: mediate and create awareness of the specificity of contemporary dance and to strengthen the
onward movement of the dance sector on a European level.
Capacity building: creating conditions for exchanges and facilitating knowledge sharing.
Connecting and collaborating with organisations, other networks and stakeholders to enhance the relevance of
diverse dance, audiences and citizens' engagement.
