In brief
Forum theatre training programme
Partners: World Population Foundation and Vietnam Stage Artist's Association
2002 - 2005
Working in partnership with the World Population Foundation in Vietnam we trained twelve young people in participative forum theatre over two years.
They went on to use their theatre skills to raise awareness and understanding of reproductive health issues especially HIV/AIDS with vulnerable young people in the suburbs of Hanoi.

Forum theatre in child protection programme
As part of their child protection project we worked with World Vision International in Cambodia to enable them to use forum theatre as a community tool for changing attitudes towards child care and protection in poor and remote communities.
Drawing from almost twenty years of producing theatre with the
david glass ensemble, we have a rich experience of using theatre in a development context. Forum theatre is a powerful community tool that creates an environment of positive potential for change and can help communities model new behaviours and challenge old ones.
