The ASSITEJ World Congress 2024 will be in Havana, Cuba from 24 May to 1 June 2024 with the theme of Embodying Vision which is the third theme in our overarching three-year dramaturgy of Regenerating.
The ASSITEJ Magazine continues to be online, you can view the previous versions from 2022 and 2023.
The magazine articles will be published in English and the original language of the author. We will create a magazine that communicates through images, film and text. Both visuals and text should address the theme, Regenerating: embodying vision.
