臺南與上海戲劇教育交流活動 (撰文：舒盛宗)

臺南與上海戲劇教育交流活動
舒盛宗
（原文刊登在

筆者所屬的「香港教育戲劇論壇」(TEFO)每年都會舉辦海外戲劇教育交流團，讓本地與海外戲劇教育工作者能互相交流，從而知悉彼此的專業發展。還記得零一年到臺南作戲劇教育考察，與國立臺南大學的戲劇創作與應用學系作交流；得到林玫君、王婉容、許瑞芳等教授為我們介紹了她們與「國立臺灣歷史博物館」合作的幾齣博物館劇場製作，包括一齣名為《一八九五開城門》的教習劇場，筆者亦曾在此欄目為讀者介紹。

TEFO將會在五月舉行兩場名為「教育．美學．劇場．多面睇」錄像播放及座談會來分享兩齣台灣教育劇場個案：包括5月4日的導覽互動式博物館劇場：《草地郎入神仙府》，內容講述清代府城城內與城外生活與環境的差異，反映尋常百姓的生活面貌；5月11日的教習劇場：《一八九五開城門》，是講述1895年滿清政府把台灣割讓給日本，台灣各城鎮百姓面對應否開城門迎接日本人的掙扎。讀者可透過錄像觀賞更深入瞭解兩個歷史科的教案。

鑑於近年香港與內地城巿在文化藝術上緊密合作及交流，TEFO特意在本年六月的八至十一日組團到訪上海，作四日三夜的實地考察，與當地培育戲劇教育專業人才的戲劇學院、民間劇團及社區戲劇組織等等作交流。

交流單位包括上海戲劇學院、草台班(民間劇場團體)、十二鄰(社區劇場公益組織)、青浦區民工子弟學校 (校內推行「教育戲劇」課程)、灰姑娘俱樂部(服務5-12歲弱勢女童的NGO，以戲劇促進群體對話及互動)及中國福利會兒童藝術劇院(全國首家國家專業兒童藝術院團)。希望能讓參與者較全面地瞭解上海市的戲劇教育與應用劇場發展。
讀者如對上述活動感興趣，可致電2511 0661或電郵：admin@tefo.hk楊小姐查詢。

UNESCO International Arts Education Week

WAAE Press Release 15 May 2012

UNESCO International Arts Education Week

On the 23 May 2012 the United Nations Education Science and Culture Organisation (UNESCO) will launch the inaugural International Arts Education Week (21-27 May, 2012) at UNESCO Headquarters, Paris. This high profile event includes a symposium and official ceremony officiated by Francesco Bandarin, Assistant Director General for Culture, UNESCO and Mrs Park Jae–Eun, President, Korea Arts Culture Education Service (KACES). The World Alliance for Arts Education (WAAE) will be represented by Assoc. Professor Ralph Buck, Chair, Executive Council, WAAE, who will moderate one of the symposium panels. The symposia will focus on the implementation of the Seoul Agenda: Goals for the Development of Arts Education, and profiling cultural diversity in and through arts education.

International Arts Education Week was proposed to UNESCO in 2009 by the Executive Council of the World Alliance for Arts Education (WAAE). The WAAE is an alliance between the International Drama/Theatre Education Association (IDEA), International Society for Education through Art (InSEA), International Society for Music Education (ISME) and World Dance Alliance (WDA). Advocacy by the WAAE and the Korean Arts and Culture Education Service (KACES) was rewarded when the 36 Session of the General Conference of UNESCO agreed to three resolutions that recognise the importance of arts education in fostering cultural diversity, intercultural dialogue and social cohesion. The three resolutions were:

1. Adopt and support the Seoul Agenda: Goals for the Development of Arts Education
2. Designate the fourth week of May as International Arts Education Week
3. Support a third world conference on arts education

Please go to the following website for further information regarding UNESCO arts education policies
http://www.unesco.org/new/en/culture/themes/creativity/arts-education/.

International Arts Education Week aims to raise international community’s awareness of the importance of arts education. To be celebrated in the 4th week of May every year, International Arts Education Week will honour and celebrate arts education in diverse societies and cultures. Key stakeholders in arts education such as teachers, parents, children, arts education associations, artists, civil servants, researchers and government authorities may value this week for showcasing practices, traditions, innovations, projects and research highlighting the integral role the arts and arts education play in diverse communities.
The WAAE will value its vast international networks and annually advocate for International Arts Education Week. The WAAE calls upon all arts education stakeholders to celebrate the inaugural launch of International Arts Education Week, 23 May 2012, and to see the fourth week of May as a time for annual celebrations of arts education.

7th ATHENS INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE - CALL FOR PAPERS & WORKSHOPS

7th ATHENS INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
“THEATRE/DRAMA & EDUCATION – BONDS OF SOLIDARITY”
23-25 November, 2012

CALL FOR PAPERS & WORKSHOPS

Dear friends, old and new, around the world!

The Hellenic Theatre/Drama & Education Network is the Greek ordinary member of IDEA, since 2004. Our scientific association was created 14 years ago and since its day-one has been struggling for (and succeeded) the creation of a theatre & education field in the country, on theoretical, research and practical level.

Our continuing work of in-service trainings, seminars, day conferences and theatre camps, but most of all, our 6 Athens international conferences so far, have always been accepted with enthousiasm, both inside the country and abroad. Our vsion is to bring together everyone actively interseted in this field, to create a platform of equal dialogue between researchers, artists, educators, students, academics, facilitators.

This year has been the worst one since long time ago for our country. The global economical crisis and the political instability have stopped practically every serious event on the cultural front and people in Greece are experiencing everyday frustration in their work and life, mizery and lack of inspiration and self-esteem to work creatively.

It is EXACTLY this hour that we believe is worth making every effort to hold our 7th Athens International Conference “Drama/Theatre & Education: Bonds of Solidarity”.
It is exactly this hour that we need to show solidarity to one another, like the connection theatre & education share.

It is our honour that the previous IDEA Executive Committee has decided that all Athens International Conferences are recognised as events in collaboration with IDEA. We will make any effort to create another successfull Athens Conference.

This year our budget is very limited but we will make efforts that delegates whose input will be accepted (papers, workshops, etc), will need not pay for conference fees.

We are sending you our call for papers and workshops and we are looking forward to your propositions! Let’s all meet in Athens next November. Let’s not allow the misery and disapointment bring us down. Let’s show the world OUR bonds of solidarity!
