Our knowledge of 12 years of experience has been further strengthened through collaboration with an academic university, the Center for Lifelong Learning, TISS Mumbai.During the DMT Annual Summit,Kolkata Sanved will examine the contribution of DMT in psychosocial rehabilitation and alternative healing.Kolkata Sanved has been discussing certain concerns such as a) the need to reflect on ourselves as Dance Movement Therapists and expressive arts therapy practitioners b) the need to discover how more people can access DMT and how more people can own the practice c) the need to discuss the ability to map and quantify the creative and healing process of individuals.Let us challenge ourselves to discover new ideas and new approaches in the next decades of DMT and other creative therapies. With the DMT for Change Summit, we plan to bring together leaders in the field of DMT and other creative art therapies,to acknowledge,explore and share the immense potential and transformative power of DMT and to celebrate the efforts of those who utilize Dance Movement Therapy and other art therapies as a tool for healing,development and empowerment.
