DANCE & DIVERSITY
Dance & Diversity is an action research project funded by NESTA (National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts), and conducted by IRIE! dance theatre that looks at the place of cultural diversity in dance training, particularly focusing on the awareness and provision of African and Caribbean styles.  The project is a 3-year development plan to raise the profile of African and Caribbean dance addressing issues of inequality within dance education and practice.
