Funded by the Cité Éducative of Villiers-le-Bel, the “DK-BEL in Schools” project aims to promote the inclusion of neurodivergent peopleby raising young people’s awareness of difference from an early age.

​

The project is grounded in the core values championed by DK-BEL: solidarity, empathy, kindness, and respect for everyone.

Inclusive dance is a powerful way to support the integration of disabled people into society and to help change perceptions of difference.

​

Activities include inclusive dance workshops led by company professionals alongside dancers with disabilities; training sessions bringing together pupils and young people from health and social care organisations; and the creation of “Kindness Day.”

​

The project also encourages links between participating schools and local health and social care organisations.

​

Each year, a final presentation celebrates the activities carried out and the experiences shared by participants.
