Access Point Tanz is a platform that grew out of the need for a dance mediation center in Berlin.
We act as a decentralized organization and as both an analogue and digital contact point. We aim to gain visibility for dance mediation practices in Berlin, bundle the activities of the actors and institutions active in the field and create new structures, formats and collaborations that look to the future. By following an approach that is critical of hegemonic power structures and discrimination, we aim to foster diversity and inclusion.
We see dance mediation as an active field of social participation that encourages exchange and mutual learning. We believe that by strengthening mediation practices in dance, the basis for participation in society as a whole is also strengthened.
After an initial conception phase (2020 – 2021), the platform has since Spring 2022 entered its pilot phase.
