Our goal in this project is to make integrated dance visible. We want to use this new platform to show the excellence of the work of mixed groups.
Onassis Stegi, one of Greece’s leading cultural institutions, has offered a dance and disability programme since 2012. In 2013 it took part in Unlimited Access, a Creative Europe-supported partnership with British Council and two more organizations. This launched Stegi’s participatory programme for disabled aspiring dance artists and inspired them to be the lead partner in the iDance project co-funded by Erasmus+ programme, researching inclusive dance teaching methodologies.
Through its participation in the first generation of Europe Beyond Access, it made an important step forward towards breaking down the barriers between disabled artists and mainstream performing arts in Greece and abroad.
