Unprecedented. Unheard-of. Extraordinary. These are just a few of the words that have been used to describe the past few weeks, but I would use another word… BUSY!
Sin precedentes. Inédito. Extraordinario. Estas son sólo algunas de las palabras que se han usado para describir las últimas semanas,…
Since we launched our World Day of Theatre for Children and Young People campaign, which leads up to the 20th March, with the slogan #Takeachildtothetheatre, much has changed. For many children in many parts of the world it is not practical, possible or advised to take children to the theatre, and many children will be spending days indoors, shuttered away in their own homes, without opportunities for connection or for stimulation beyond what the television can provide.

Towards the Unknown… the overarching theme for ASSITEJ for the current three-year term is ringing very true at this moment in the world. In May we have our 20th World Congress in Tokyo in Japan and The ASSITEJ Japan team is working day and night to make this an occasion to remember; the first ever Congress in Japan and the Mirai Festival the biggest gathering of TYA work ever to be presented to the Japanese people. This plan has become a hope rather than a certainty.
Hacia lo desconocido… El tema principal de ASSITEJ para estos tres años suena muy verdadero en este momento en el…
In May, at the Tokyo Congress, a stage closes for me. After 6 years, I will no longer be part of the Executive Committee. I think about this fact and inevitably a kind of balance is imposed on me.

The 20th ASSITEJ World Congress and International Festival scheduled for May 2020 in Tokyo, Japan is fast approaching with the theme BEGINNING THE JOURNEY. For me, beginning a journey does not always imply starting a fresh movement. It can imply that the journey had been on, but a need arose that necessitated a pause. This ‘pause’, calls for reflection and stock-taking that requires putting all aspects of the journey in proper perspective and coming up with ways to navigate through perceived and real obstacles.

Lately, in the ASSITEJ Executive Committee we have been having open meetings, and we have had a fundraising working group based on an open call. At these open meetings we have experienced a fantastic participation from several people from the ASSITEJ community, who with commitment and curiosity have brought to the table offers of help with concrete, practical work and new ideas.
Últimamente, en el Comité Ejecutivo de ASSITEJ hemos mantenido reuniones abiertas, y hemos tenido un grupo de trabajo de recaudación…
It is August, and the biggest event of our ASSITEJ community this year is just around the corner: ASSITEJ Artistic Gathering 2019. From the 2nd till the 7th of September, performers, directors, writers, dramaturgs, theatre pedagogues, producers, researchers, scenographers, musicians, dancers, video artists, programmers and artistic directors from all over the world will come together in Kristiansand and explore what is happening in the field of theatre for a young audience right now.
Es agosto, y el evento más grande de nuestra comunidad ASSITEJ este año está a la vuelta de la esquina:…
Recently I had the chance to watch a film and a performance, and these both impressed me very much. They provided me with a lot of food for thought on the role of the arts and life as an artist. These works are not actually related to TYA, though I think they tell me a lot about TYA indirectly, because they are all about terrible situations in which the disadvantaged, such as children, are firstly influenced and then abused.
Recientemente tuve la oportunidad de ver una película y una actuación, y ambas me impresionaron mucho. Me proporcionaron gran cantidad…
Encounter and exchange are among the pillars of cultural policies when we aim at the promotion of diversity of cultural expression. But most would agree that our actions to make this a reality have not yet lived up to our own words. What could be innovative and – more important – integrative models of a truly “fair” cooperation?
El encuentro y el intercambio son uno de los pilares de las Políticas Culturales cuando se trata de promover la…
From 28th April to 3rd May, the Executive Committee will meet in Montevideo, Uruguay. Six years since its last visit to Latin America (the last EC meeting in the region was in 2013 in Buenos Aires), the EC will cross the ocean to have one of its meetings on this side of the world. The Ibero American centers are happy and full of expectations because, thanks to ASSITEJ support, the Ibero American Network in collaboration with ASSITEJ Uruguay will organize a meeting in Montevideo bringing together representatives of Argentina, Brasil, Cuba, Chile, Ecuador, Spain, Paraguay, Dominican Republic and the EC.
Del 28 de abril al 3 de mayo en Montevideo, Uruguay, luego de xx años el comité ejecutivo se vuelve…
