Abstract

Glean and Lehan discuss Dance and Diversity, an action-based research project they undertook to look at the place of cultural diversity in dance education and practice, with particular reference to African and Caribbean dance forms. This chapter looks at Phase Two of the project (2006–2008, funded by Arts Council England), which looked at cultural diversity in an international context in order to inform and develop British dance curriculums.
