Sharemusic & Performing Arts

ShareMusic & Performing Arts, Swedish knowledge centre for artistic development and inclusion, is a non-profit organisation independent of party policy, religion and trade unions. ShareMusic is a development platform and a resource, which collaborates the arts and cultural sector as well as the social and education sector and the academic world. It is a local, regional, national and international platform that supports and provides tools for sustainable inclusive work within the arts. One of the knowledge centre’s main areas is to explore the possibilities that innovative technologies and digitisation can offer in form of widened active participation and creativity within the arts for disabled persons. ShareMusic’s work is rights-based and follows the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. It is also clearly tied to the global development goals of inclusion and sustainable development. The fundamental idea is to work towards a society where all human beings should have the opportunity to express themselves as artists in a world where difference is seen as valuable.
