UNESCO's International Fund for Cultural diversity (IFCD) awarded Muda Africa a grant for its project entitled 'Strengthening the contemporary dance scene in East Africa' from 2021 to 2023.
The funds supported the creation of a web portal that profiles young talented professional dance artists from Tanzania, Rwanda and Uganda, as well as give marketing and teacher training workshops to 120 East African dance artists.
With a special focus on women, the project offered 30 East African women dancers choreographic capacity building and organised a 5-day conference with the AMDA network to develop policies to promote gender equality on dance platforms regionally.
