AccessibleEU Spain - Accessibility in the Performing Arts: Challenges Towards a Culture for all People (25-WS-ES-02)

Within the framework of accessibility in culture and leisure, the topic of accessibility in the performing arts has long been a pending issue to be addressed with the importance and rigor it deserves. 

Until now, it has been considered as specific, secondary, or marginal actions for a very minority sector, rather than as a basic consideration of the right to leisure for all.

The existing synergies between AccessibleEU Spain and its interest in disseminating accessibility, ASEPAU's interest in training professionals in accessibility, and RESAD's interest in the knowledge and development of accessibility in the performing arts have been leveraged to organise this joint event  to raise awareness of this need among students, teachers, and public entities.

Objectives

  • To bring together key stakeholders involved in the performing arts to reflect together on the current state of accessibility in the performing arts landscape.
  • To share strategies and challenges to be addressed on this topic, from different perspectives and points of view.
  • To bring together viewpoints and experiences to foster future advancements in accessibility in the performing arts.
