Radical Movement — Mar 7, 2021 — Panel 1
Channel: IGINP Canada
Date: 2021-03-07

Radical Movement is the 6th instalment of the Educating for Justice Through Peace webinar series for 2020-21. It was created to celebrate International Women’s Day, by drawing together world-class performing artists and the founders of a training model for embodied leadership, empowerment and facilitation. Performing arts like dance, theatre, and live music often rely upon a woman-centered embodied wisdom that is community-based. These philosophies for radical artistic practice and embodied leadership each hold as essential the recognition of our emotional and physical experiences. We hope audience would take inspirations from with the presenters about practical ways to facilitate transformation and radical change.

The two presenters are Carolyn Dunn (playwright) and Dakxin Bajrange (Director, Budhan Theatre). This session was facilitated by Seónagh Kummer, PhD (co-founder of Dharma in Motion).
