Fado Dançado
With the support of researchers and choreographers, the Batoto Yetu Portugal Association has recreated the fado dance. The practice, which has now disappeared, was common at the beginning of the 19th century, revealing a strong African and Brazilian influence. The project was aimed at young people in the municipality of Oeiras from neighbourhoods with a majority PALOP population.
Project supported under the 2nd edition of the PARTIS initiative.
