Practices of Care and Wellbeing in Contemporary Dance

European Dance Development Network has released the research publication Practices of Care and Wellbeing in Contemporary Dance: Evidence from the Field by EDN researcher, facilitator and dramaturg Monica Gillette.

This report highlights multiple ways dance contributes to societal wellbeing. It addresses tensions that respond to the strained working conditions in the dance sector and offers recommendations for maintaining a pluralistic and thriving contemporary dance culture.

Nearly 400 participants in EDN’s activities throughout the year contributed to the mapping for this report. We are deeply grateful for their insights and contributions.
