We are back at the beginning of the year, heading to the final stage of Dancing Histor(Y)ies after an autumn of meetings, gatherings, and workshops to improve the DH Model. We are now preparing the full schedule for the last leg of the project and related events. The artistic and institutional partners continue to generate news about the meetings across the various venues where last year’s dance festivals and mini festivals have been held. Now, our next step is to review the updates shared by our local partners about this exciting period we are entering, dedicated to dance and European cultural heritage.
Today, let’s have a deep insight into what the DH Training model is all about!
DH Peer-to-Peer Training Strategy and Tools- Learning by sharing. Growing through dialogue.
We are proud to announce that we’ve finalized the DH Peer-to-Peer Training Strategy and Tools. It offers a practical, inclusive approach to learning based on participation, trust, and mutual exchange as an alternative to traditional training by placing people, dialogue, and shared experience at the center of learning. Designed for organizations, facilitators, and practitioners who believe in democratic, participatory ways of working—and in the power of learning together.
Created through a collaborative needs-analysis process across the project partnership, the strategy combines research insights, artistic practices, and hands-on facilitation tools such as Liberating Structures, experiential exercises, and peer-to-peer workshops. Its methodology supports active listening, confidence-building, and collaborative problem-solving, encouraging participants to learn with and from each other. Drawing on research, artistic practices, and hands-on facilitation tools, it can be easily adapted to different topics, teams, and project phases.
No special equipment. No rigid formats. Just people, dialogue, and shared experience.
Developed and produced with the cooperation of all partners, and written and edited by Cyprus University of Technology. This document is the outcome of a process that began within the framework of the project Dancing Histor(y)ies: Binding Communities and Heritage Through Dance, aiming to carry out a particularly challenging undertaking. Its objective was twofold: to respond to identified training needs through a participatory process involving the project partners, and to support the wider DH project audience by offering a practical, scalable, and user-friendly peer-to-peer learning methodology applicable across multiple contexts and use cases.
