ASSITEJ – Upholding The Rights Of The Child

We are theatre and performance makers who make work for, with, by and about children and young people and our task, our purpose, is embedded in the social, economic and political fabric of young people’s lives. It is through our practice as artists that we can take the steps to create a turning point for many, including ourselves. The power we have to tell stories that show and interpret complex situations is vital. We have a deep and nuanced language to play with that spans so many art forms and ways of being – emotional, physical, visual, sensory as well as words.   We are in the business of empathy, of wonder and curiosity, humanity and compassion, of protest and contributing to change.

Mensagem do Comitê Executivo da ASSITEJ Internacional

Nous sommes des créateurs et créatrices, des fabricants de spectacles qui travaillent pour, avec, par et sur les enfants et les jeunes. Notre mission, notre enjeu est ancré dans le tissu social, économique et politique de la vie des jeunes. C'est grâce à notre pratique artistique que nous pouvons prendre les mesures nécessaires pour créer un tournant pour beaucoup, y compris pour nous-mêmes. Le pouvoir que nous avons de raconter des histoires qui montrent et interprètent des situations complexes est vital. Nous disposons d'un langage profond et nuancé avec lequel nous pouvons jouer et qui couvre tant de formes d'art et de manières d'être, émotionnelles, physiques, visuelles, sensorielles ainsi que des mots. Nous sommes dans le domaine de l'empathie, de l'émerveillement et de la curiosité, de l'humanité et de la compassion, de la protestation et de la contribution au changement.

Somos creadores de teatro y espectáculos que hacemos obras para, con, por y sobre niños, niñas y jóvenes, y nuestra tarea, nuestro propósito, está incrustado en el tejido social, económico y político de la vida de los jóvenes. Es a través de nuestra práctica como artistas como podemos dar los pasos necesarios para crear un punto de inflexión para muchos, incluidos nosotros mismos. El poder que tenemos para contar historias que muestren e interpreten situaciones complejas es vital. Tenemos un lenguaje profundo y lleno de matices con el que jugar, que abarca muchas formas artísticas y maneras de ser: emocionales, físicas, visuales, sensoriales, además de las palabras.   Estamos en la industria de la empatía, del asombro y la curiosidad, de la humanidad y la compasión, de la protesta y la contribución al cambio.

When diplomacy subjugates art, it forgets that it brings people together beyond borders and cannot comply with the rules of military and political conflicts. It has its own confrontations, but above all it connects men, women, children, young people, artists and spectators.
