Meet our 18 IETM Global Connectors 2021-22
IETM Global Connect is a new programme we are leading with the support of our Associate Members with a view to making our network more inclusive, diverse and accessible. After receiving 198 strong applications back in May 2021, we are happy and proud to introduce the 18 Global Connectors who were selected by our Selection Committee!
The IETM Global Connectors are experienced contemporary performing arts professionals from across the globe who have demonstrated a commitment to increase global awareness, inclusion, accessibility and connectivity for the benefit of their communities.
Through Global Connect, they receive the IETM membership for two years, attend all IETM events free of charge, take part in the yearly Global Connectors gathering and benefit from a travel bursary to attend a Plenary Meeting.
Most importantly, they have the opportunity to expand their international network, to find new inspirations in their professional lives which they can share with their communities, and to actively contribute to IETM’s activities and development by bringing fresh perspectives to its members and the global performing arts sector.
