Peace is an embodied practice. Dance Peace is an initiative where refugee children and families in areas of social tension work together toward peace in their communities through dance. Together, we address insular or divided neighborhoods, potential or actual violence, and Track 3 diplomacy through dance education and experiences.

We curate, design, facilitate or collaborate on projects that we theorize will have positive, urgent and relevant impact for each specific context. 

Follow Dance Peace on Facebook and Instagram for photos, updates and performances.
