ALTRE VELOCITA'
The Festival organises a laboratory of critique and journalism curated by Altre Velocità, targeting younger participants, 13 to 19 years of age, with the goal to create an active and intensive experience in the field of journalism, one that can transform the act of watching the shows into a collective narration, by experimenting with transmedia narration as well as with the various potentials of writing, by contributing to the blog danzarelacitta.danzaurbana.eu.

The initiative is developed within the project Bod/y-z Bologna Dance/Y&Z generations, financed by the European Union - European Structural and Investment Funds, within the EU response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Operational Programme on Metropolitan Cities 2014-2020 REACT EU - “La città che danza” (The dancing city) Bo7.1.1g.F34H22001280006 

SHARE & TRAIN BOLOGNA
From this year on, Danza Urbana will meet the community Share & Train Bologna, a project for the exchange of artistic practices, organised by dancers, performers, dance professionals, and performance art professionals, and targeting their own community. The goal of the initiative is to promote the dialogue among the artists who live in Bologna and in the surrounding areas, thereby strengthening the existing community and widening the network by including the proposals of professionals who transit through the city. Share & Train Bologna is a project curated by Riccardo De Simone, Martina Delprete, Francesca Siracusa, and Gaia Centamore, created in synergy with the national network of sharing training.
