CID Congresses are the largest gatherings of dance specialists world-wide, the best opportunity to showcase one's work to a wide audience of practitioners, dance teachers, choreographers, researchers, journalists and organizers. They are attended by hundreds of specialists from dozens of countries. All forms of dance are represented. Strictly non-profit. Not to be confused with festivals, workshops, competitions or open conferences. Under the auspices of the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Education and Science, the Municipality of Riga, Riga Teacher Training and Educational Management Academy and the National UNESCO Commission. The congress is organized by the Riga Section of CID-UNESCO, in collaboration with the International Dance Council CID. It is placed within International Year for the Rapprochement of Cultures, declared by the United Nations and entrusted to UNESCO. The program includes: - Presentation and discussion of original research reports (papers) - Classes, lecture-demonstrations, video projections - Performances by dance companies, duos or solos - Exhibitions and sale of books, records, pictures, costumes, accessories etc. - Evenings where members can discuss in a relaxed setting.
