International Exchange
Realizing the importance of personal and professional
contact between artists from countries with different
political, social or cultural structures and beliefs,
the Foundation initiated and organized international
exchanges of students. For instance students from
the Czech Republic, China and Slovakia were invited
to the Netherlands to observe and work with different
dance institutions in this country.
The foundation only supports projects of its own
choice and does not accept any applications.
