ADVOCACY

DTEA needs to advocate for our manifesto and engage industry and education bodies to do so.

Having identified priority and broader audiences we want to advocate to, we will develop an engagement strategy to support the teaching of drama, and support for the industry.

Supporting Documents:

The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), protect children's rights to access arts and drama. Articles 13 on freedom of expression, and Article 31 on participation in cultural and artistic life are key to this argument.

Manifestos by ASSITEJ, the DTEA and Action for Children's Arts are all strong policy documents
