The Dancing Otherwise Network is an AHRC-funded research network exploring pluriversal practices towards a more equitable UK dance ecology. A pluriverse describes a world of many enmeshed voices, practices, and perspectives (both human and nonhuman)
in dialogue with one another, that thrives and survives through equitable
exchange and working together. The network will explore
how artists from diverse backgrounds and artistic perspectives produce new understandings,
positionalities, and modes of knowing, through three key frameworks:
spatially/geographically (where dance practices take place and are located), thematically (through content and
repertoire), practically (through choreographic approaches, systems of production, categorisation and transmission.
