CELEBRATING CHILDHOOD with KOLKATA SANVED

We are happy to announce that like every year, this year too we are celebrating Children’s Day on the 12th November 2013 in Kolkata in collaboration with American Center. Please block the day in your diary to celebrate childhood with us.

The Dancers of Transforming Steps

The Kolkata Sanved dancers will perform unique choreography as part of a dance and video awareness raising initiative entitled Transforming Steps. Through Transforming Steps and the larger campaign, Stand with Survivors of Sex Trafficking, Stand Against Exploitation, the dancers will open themselves to the rich experience of travel and to a deeper understanding of the power of dance to transcend cultural barriers. As inspiring role models and human rights advocates, performing in London will broaden the dancer's scope of contemporary choreography and enhance their skills as dance movement therapy trainers working in Kolkata, India.
