EDN joins and endorses the policy statement by an alliance of key largest performing arts networks and associations in Europe: IETM Circostrada, EFA - the European Festivals Association, EAIPA – the European Association of Independent Performing Arts, The European Theatre Convention (ETC) and EDN - European Dancehouse Network. 

We call on the Member States to include support to greening the performing arts production and to sustainable and geographically balanced cross-border distribution of the performing arts, aiming to support multilingualism and cultural diversity in the EU, as one of the priorities of the Work Plan for Culture 2023-2026.
