History
The organisation was established in 2008, as a follow-up to the informal professional platform of the same name, whose members met for the first time in January 2006. Their professional discussions and activities resulted in an initiative to create a Contemporary Dance Support Programme, which was presented at an international conference in December 2008. Since then, Vision for Dance has been an important partner for institutions in addressing professional issues, working to raise awareness of the field among the general public, or contributing substantially to the formulation of the future direction of the field.
