Contact: mail@art4change.info ----------------------------------------- Current links: The Power of Culture - Lying at the core of society, art is also a means of bringing about social change. Drama, film and music can help people get to grips with their own lives. Take, for example, youth in deprived areas. Artistic expression is giving them self-respect and belief in the future. Art is often an open platform for freedom of speech, even in societies where that freedom is restricted. This makes art an effective tool for exposing social issues. http://www.powerofculture.nl/en/theme/art_development.html The Power of Cultures gouide to usefull websites http://www.powerofculture.nl/en/websites Arts For Global Development, Inc. is an international volunteer based initiative with a purpose of furthering interdisciplinary, multisectoral, cross-cultural and creative approach in social change, and facilitating creative sector and stakeholders of development together empower socially and economically disadvantaged individuals and communities worldwide, particularly children, youth, and women. http://www.art4development.net/ The Trampoline House is a self-organized, non-profit, user-driven culture house, where asylum seekers, refugees, and Danish citizens can meet, share experiences, and learn from one another. http://trampolinehouse.dk Institute for Community Development and the Arts - Americans for the Arts established the Institute for Community Development and the Arts to provide a research-based understanding of how the arts are being used to address social, educational, and economic development issues in communities across the country. http://www.artsusa.org/information_services/research/institute_community_development/default.asp visAvis is a magazine that focuses on migration and asylum, produced by people with or without citizenship living in Denmark. http://www.visavis.dk/ The Arts for Development Foundation - is a non-profit charitable organization dedicated to facilitating the integration of the arts into social and economic development projects. http://www.a4dfoundation.com/A4D/Home.html Steven Sampsons blog på Ulandsnyt.dk (Danish) http://www.u-landsnyt.dk/blog/25/korruptionsbek-mpelse-bistandens-gr-zone Danish Center for Culture and Development http://www.dccd.dk/dccd/cku.nsf/Doc/start?OpenDocument&lang=uk Generous Gestures - A festival focusing on the intercultural art scene in Denmark http://initialstateoflimbo.wikispaces.com/ http://denfrie.dk/index.php/en/exhibitions/past-exhbition/90-udstillingskalender-2011/351-generous-gestures.html Lasanaa – An Alternative Art Space http://www.lasanaa.org.np Minority Report Challenging Intolerance in Contemporary Denmark http://www.minority-report.dk/english/index.html Women in Black – An International Network Women in Black was founded in Israel in January 1988 when women for the first time demonstrated in silence dressed in black against the occupation of the Palestinian territories. http://www.kvinderisort.dk/english.html Dear Asian Development Bank A film by Anders Thormann & Tim Whyte http://www.andersthormann.dk/film/dear00.html The Power of Theatre A film by Anders Thormann & Tim Whyte http://www.andersthormann.dk/film/pot00.html
