A catalyst, in chemical terms, is a substance that causes or accelerates a chemical reaction without itself being affected, sparking new energy and instigating change. Weve called this years Challenging Circumstances Music Network conference Catalysing Change because all of us, whether young people, practitioners, project managers and representatives of music organisations, academics, researchers, teachers and funders, can be a catalyst for change in our work.
In recent years excellent research has been undertaken in the field of music in challenging circumstances, we have more knowledge and intelligence than ever before, and in London we have a wide range of challenging circumstances expertise. Nonetheless equitable provision is still an aspiration not a reality.
At this years conference we ask:
- What does social need in London look like in 2016? What challenges are young Londoners facing?
- How do we identify musical cold spots and create opportunities to fill these gaps?
- What will it take for every child and young person to have access to high quality, sustained music opportunities?
- How can we all catalyse change?
The event will be an innovation lab in which connections and chemical reactions can occur. Were hoping the results will be explosive shaking up your practice and setting you off on new experiments through music!
