It is our pleasure to announce the first EDN publication in 2021 entitled “Dance and Well-being, review of evidence and policy perspectives”, a part of the “Fit for the Future'' series of research papers commissioned by the European Dance Network.

The publication was supported by DEN the Dutch national knowledge institute for culture & digital transformation and Dachverband Tanz Deutschland.
