SINIPARKSI EMBODIES HUMANRIGHTS IN CONTEMPORARY DANCE CREATION

What is cultural is what connects by meaning. Cultural is what is not reduced to a production but contributes to communication, as a “bearer of identities, values and meaningful.”
(language of the UNESCO Declaration on Cultural Diversity, article 8,2001)

The European exchange project SINIPARKSI aims to make contemporary dance accessible to as many people as possible while consciously embracing the cultural diversity of people living in Europe. To realize this aspiration in dance projects, there is a need for further training opportunities for choreographers and dance teachers on how to deal with human and social variety in dance. Through the collaboration of four European dance institutes, a support program will be developed and made publicly accessible.

Four European dance companies and dance schools from France, Greece, Germany and Croatia, will exchange ideas about the potential, practices and challenges of cultural diversity in dance projects. The choreographers consciously challenge their artistic and pedagogical practice in cultural contexts other than the ones they are familiar with, by co-creating with different kinds of local communities in Europe, including people with or without dance experience. This way, the choreographers exchange and further develop their own practice. The knowledge gained will be shared with other choreographers in Europe in the form of a "training kit", a written pedagogical guide enriched with a video tutorial.

Siniparksi project aims to promote the development and dissemination of community  artistic projects that respect the cultural rights in Europe. Cultural rights are part of human rights and protect the identity, language and traditions of a cultural community and its expression without discrimination or coercion, supporting cultural participation for all.
