ASSITEJ International Current Open Calls Opportunities

Open Call: Performances for ASSITEJ World Congress 2027

This year, the international message is “Staging the Rights of Children: Today, Every Day.” Within the Executive Committee, we have spoken about it extensively, always trying to ensure that our words reflect the global diversity of our network. Because this path can only be travelled together, through dialogue and inclusion. This message places at the centre our fundamental purpose: the rights of children — rights we celebrate today, but which we defend every day of the year.

Umbrella Session: 9 April 2026

For the ASSITEJ community, the SHIFT certification and the Green Team work mean different resources. On our website, you can find our Sustainability Policy (I Am Because You Are) and our Sustainability working plan. These are guidelines to improve our activities regarding travel, communication, and events on the environmental level. They are also a credible track record of concrete actions to fund our commitment to become a more environmentally sustainable organisation, a more sustainable community.

Book: The Art of Listening in Theatre for Young Audiences

The Babel project started nearly 4 years ago. Activities within the project have been implemented in 11 EU countries and 6 countries on all continents (Indonesia, Jordan, South Africa, Brazil, Cuba and Pakistan). Artists all around the world have met and worked together to perform, to discuss and to reflect on how linguistic and cultural differences are an asset not only in and for our community, but also for children and young people by listening and opening ourselves to them.

A Note from Carole Karemera

Ntho di bonwa ka ho tsamaya is a Sesotho expression meaning “one learns by travelling.” For me, both literal and imaginative journeys constantly water my artistic and personal growth. Whenever I travel, I like to learn about the place; its social, political, cultural, and economic context.

Lalu Mokuku, Member of the Executive Committee of ASSITEJ International

Each new Centre means new voices, new collaborations, and new friendships. Each new Centre means a new connection — a new friend somewhere in the world. Looking back at the Umbrella Session, I see a growing map of faces: people united by art, care, and imagination. Culture connects us beyond borders, and through ASSITEJ, we are reminded that wherever we go, there will always be a friend waiting.

Stavros Stavrou, Member of the Executive Committee of ASSITEJ International
