Theatre for Development practitioners

Theatre for Development (TfD) practitioners use performance art to engage communities in discussions about social issues and inspire change. They blend traditional storytelling and modern theatre techniques to address topics such as health, education, and human rights. By involving local people in the creation and presentation of plays, TfD practitioners encourage dialogue, raise awareness, and empower communities to find solutions to challenges they face. The approach values local culture and perspectives, making it a relevant tool for fostering understanding and mobilizing action in a collaborative and creative way.
