History of Africa Network

(DiHAN)

This network was established with the aim of raising the critical discourse around dance as an object of inquiry in the histories of Africa.  Enact Arts is proud to be partnering with the network.

The network was founded by co-investigators Dr Zoë Groves, University of Leicester, and the late Dr Cécile Feza Bushidi then based Barnard College, University of Columbia. In 2025, Dr Elizabeth Claire and Dr Mirelle Fore Chamba Nana joined the leadership of the network.  

Participation in the network is free of charge. It is for those interested in meeting and discussing the importance of studying and researching the history of dance in continental Africa. It is open to people of all cultural and racial identities. The role of Enact Arts is to support to publicise and increase the reach of the network.
