A Reminder For Ourselves
ASSITEJ International, as a community, must be able to offer a space for artists without discrimination, as we say in our constitution. A space that opens rather than closes and that welcomes diverse points of view.
In this 21st World Congress we offer a space for all who come in the name of peace and connection, and who are working to create and share theatre and performance for a young audience. We acknowledge that we are visitors in this beautiful country, and we claim this time together as a positive action towards empathy and connection – valuing what is similar between us. This gathering is a way we can positively act towards unity, despite the world. In this lies our hope and the hope of the children and young people we serve.
