Dance, as the most physical of all art forms, is directly connected to contemporary social, political, and societal issues—making it essential everywhere, especially in places where it is less present.

NEW*** The position paper ‘Mobility in rural areas as the key to cultural participation and democratic involvement’ has been published.
Position of the ‘AG Räume und Regionen’ of Bundesverbandes Freie Darstellende Künste (BFDK) on the need to develop mobility concepts in rural areas in order to enable cultural participation. The publication was produced in collaboration with several federal associations and the »Verbindungen Fördern« network »tanz weit draußen«.

This project is funded by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media via the ‘Verbindungen Fördern’ programme of the Bundesverband Freie Darstellende Künste e.V. (Federal Association of Independent Performing Arts).
Since 2022, »tanz weit draußen« has been funded by the »Verbindungen Fördern« program of the »Bundesverbands Freie Darstellende Künste«. Funding is currently scheduled to continue until the end of 2025. Program development, curation, and implementation are carried out in collaboration with the core partners, together with »Aktion Tanz e.V.« and the project management team. Many formats invite participation and will be published accordingly.
