Welcome to the 9th conference of IDEA (International Drama Education Association) DRAMA 4ALL. Drama for tall and small. Celebrating drama in a changing world that will be held in Reykjavík, the capital of Iceland, the 4th – 8th of July 2022. We welcome all drama educators, cultural workers, theatre artists, researchers, teachers and students from all over the world to this common arena for inspiration and development. It is hosted by FLISS (The Icelandic Drama in Education Association) and the University of Iceland, School of Education (UI).

It is an honour for FLÍSS and UI to have the opportunity of hosting an international congress of that size on the subject of drama/theatre and education in collaboration with IDEA. Iceland is one of the leading countries when it comes to implementing drama in compulsory education. In 2013 drama was established as a key learning area in the arts in Icelandic basic education and is, in the curriculum, presented both as a subject and as a method in teaching other subjects.

By hosting the congress FLISS and the UI aim to celebrate drama as a subject in its own right in compulsory education as part of the curriculum. 

The whole program of the Congress is available on the Congress website: https://ideaiceland.com/program/
