INTERNATIONAL ORFF-SCHULWERK FORUM SALZBURG
IOSFS CONVENTION 2023
The annual convention of the International Orff-Schulwerk Forum will take place
online and in-person at the Orff Institute in Salzburg
17-19 July 2023
DIVERSE VOICES
Addressing and Exploring Diversity and Inclusion in Orff Schulwerk
ABOUT THE EVENT
Diversity and Inclusion lie at the heart of the Orff Schulwerk philosophy and its practices.
They co-exist but are often in tension, creating challenges for our work as teachers and mentors.
Our theme applies to all the ways in which we may be different from each other: age,
gender, cultural and social background, race and identity, abilities, interests and aptitudes.
But diversity is less about what makes people different — and more about understanding,
accepting and valuing those differences. Inclusion leads to feeling a sense of belonging and
value.
The Convention aims to offer a place where ideas and experiences of creating inclusive and
equitable conditions for music and dance education can be discussed. It will also provide
opportunities to enrich our practice, even challenging our own approaches, as we come to
understand other perspectives.
General registration starts June 8 for in-person and online
