The Department of Drama is committed to sharing economic and cultural resources between the Global North and the Global South, which has entailed building new research infrastructures that support the work of scholars, artists and their communities in the Global South. This has been complemented by scholarship, curation, and performance-making that investigate the social experiences of global majority and diasporic communities around the world.
