The official message for
Dance Day
29 April 2023
www.DanceDay.CID-world.org
Same as theater, music and plastic arts, dance has its own global organization. In 2023 CID celebrates its 50th anniversary. Rather than describe what CID does, I use the opportunity to say what it does not.
The main difference with all other dance organizations is that CID is not linked to a particular country. It was founded within the UNESCO headquarters, that is on diplomatic grounds where no government has jurisdiction. Thus members are secure that policy will not reflect a single nationality or culture or approach to dance.
CID does not provide dance education, does not organize events, does not sell anything, so it does not compete with its members – it promotes their work and helps them upgrade it.
CID does not have a permanent leadership, it holds elections every four years where all members vote.
It has no representatives, its members are equal and are linked directly to its headquarters.
Such unique features constitute the power of CID, it treats dance professionals as real members, not customers.
Our great family will continue to grow in the next 50 years, making you proud and succesfull.
Prof. Dr. Alkis Raftis
President of the International Dance Council
CID, UNESCO, Paris
