[FEDEC] SPEAK OUT Podcast 02: Feminists & activists struck a blow in the circus sector in 2021

This podcast was recorded during a conference at FiraTàrrega festival (ESP) on September 6, 2024, in the context of the European Project SPEAK OUT, aiming at preventing all kinds of discrimination and gender-based violence in the circus sector.

3 years after the start of the 'Balance ton cirque' collective, what is the state of play? Our European project SPEAK OUT is putting in place a two-year program of activities and training designed to equip the sector to be more caring and inclusive and to combat sexist and sexual violence.

But is this enough to transform a sector? What impact will it have on institutions? And what repercussions will it have on the artistic form?

With:
👉 Dany Tran – Member of Cirquefier.e.s
👉 Yolande Sommer – Co-founder of the Initiative Feministischer Circus (DEU)
👉 Lea Weber – Co-founder of Réseau Féministe · Circassiennes (CHE)
👉 Isabel Joly – Director FEDEC (BEL) - Moderator
