Launch ICTM Belgium

ICTM Belgium will be formally launched on 30 September 2020. We hope that ICTM Belgium will be a growing membership organisation of researchers and scholars of traditional music and dance in Belgium and abroad, promoting the discipline of ethnomusicology in Belgium and of Belgian colleagues abroad. During the launch, we will introduce the scope and aim of ICTM Belgium, its current committee members, and discuss our planned activities. We invite you to inspire us to shape this network and its future activities.

We hereby invite you to our launch meeting on 30 September 2020 in the Africa Museum, Tervuren. We will offer you a welcoming drink at 15:30 and proceed with the meeting at 16:00. For those who cannot be physically present, it is possible to follow the meeting on Jitsi: https://jitsi-1.belnet.be/ICTMBelgium-Launchmeeting
