Dear ASSITEJ Network Colleagues,
I hope that this bulletin finds you healthy, safe and at
home.
We find ourselves in such a different landscape right now.
Working from home, access to free childcare and mass home schooling in 2020 all
have a huge impact on the lives of children, young people and families across
Australia.
I hope that among the difficulties, this could also be a
time to envisage a new kind of future with the young people of Australia who are
dreaming from their bedrooms, lounge rooms and backyards. A kind of imagination
that can see past this into a new future.
Please read on for updates on from ASSITEJ around the
world, news of solidarity across the Theatre for Young Audiences and Youth Arts
sector and some inspiration from kids around the globe.
