dc.description.abstractFrom 28th to 30th August 2025, 134 participants from 25 countries gathered to discuss the theme of the 9th Colloquium on Artistic Research in the Performing Arts (CARPA9), Ecological Design and Performance Pedagogies – Sustainable Practices and Interdisciplinary Acts in a Climate Changed World. The urgency of the theme of this colloquium was reflected in the unprecedented number of intelligent, insightful, and caring proposals, to the extent that the conference committee could only accept about 50% of proposals due to practical constraints of time and space. The premise for CARPA9 was to explore pedagogical approaches to, in, and for performance making in a climate changed world. In writing our call, the conference committee envisioned discussions and interventions around questions about how to move towards more ecologically and socially sustainable performing arts practices in higher education and university pedagogy. As a platform, CARPA9 thus brought together different perspectives and concerns around understanding and enacting climate justice in performing arts training and research.
