Project activities must include a component of performing arts education, with participatory theater as a priority, but other forms of performing arts such as music and dance should also be considered.
The project should also include other interactive engagements such as sessions with teachers and parents, community presentations, and awareness campaigns.
Project activities should take place before August 202 0. Scheduling and dissemination of activities should be done in coordination with PAS.
The budget and timeline should reflect all project activities.
Proposals should include a U. S. component, whether in content, organizational partners, and/or project staff.
