The mission of Global Water Dances is to inspire action, leadership and international collaboration for environmental water solutions through the universal language of dance. From our most recent press release… On the day of June 24, 2017, people from over one hundred communities across six continents will assemble to revere, renew and inspire solutions for our precious resource of water. GWD is calling on choreographers and dancers around the globe to create a dance in their region for those who will assemble; over one thousand artists are already responding and more are needed. Artists and their communities work in the company of environmental groups to generate solutions for local water issues. The ensuing Water Dance highlights the water issues and imbues the audience (who become dancers themselves as part of the event) with energy to move, not only on GWD day, but afterward to participate in achievable and meaningful water solutions. GWD operates through an international team of volunteers, employees, and board members who collaborate across the globe to pursue the mission of GWD.
