The approach of dance4life covers all aspects of youth culture; their icons, their media,
and their favorite music and dance. Dancing is healthy, positive and already connecting
young people, all over the world. Through dance4life young people start to dance with a
cause. They learn by involvement and inspire companies, politicians, NGOs, artists and media to join. And the young participants inspire each other. During the dance4life Events – on the Saturday before World AIDS Day - all the young people present see each other via live internet and satellite connections, experiencing a strong feeling of unity in their collective right to health and their collective goal to push back HIV and AIDS. Despite the physical distance and cultural differences they will dance together, all
dressed in white, supporting the need for change.
