TAI started in 2019 supported by the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council and Royal Society of Edinburgh as a network of academics and practitioners aimed at building expertise to critically assess the role of performing arts practices for social inclusion and conflict transformation. Initially with members from UK and Latin America, the network has grown ever since.

This presentation will explore some of the ways that the complexity of post-war music projects can see them fall short of their aspirations. It will share examples from Bosnia-Herzegovina, Timor-Leste, and Afghanistan, and consider what these reveal about music as an instrument of social change.</li></ul><ul><li>12:15pm - Break</li></ul><ul><li>1:00pm - Keynote: Hip-hop and the non-governmental ear: notes from Mexico City - Dr Andrew Green. This talk engages a project entitled Hip-Hop Transformación, in which a non-governmental organization in Iztapalapa, Mexico City held a competition in which hundreds of rappers participated, and aided a number of winners to record their music. It is interested in how the intermediary position of an NGO – between local and governmental stakeholders – implicates different modes of listening. To explore this multi-faceted listening posture, it proposes the concept of “the non-governmental ear”, and explores it in relation to the music recorded for this project.</li></ul><ul><li>2:00pm - Round table / Q&amp;A:</li></ul> - Making sense of lockdown and loss with playlists - Valeria Gascon - Music for social cohesion in Bolivia - Valeria Salinas (Zoom) - Social Impact of Making Music research platform - Lukas Pairon (Zoom)<ul><li>3:00pm - Close</li></ul>Please register for a space if you would like to attend the event online (via Zoom).
