What is Dance4Life?


Dance4Life is a growing, worldwide project to actively inspire young people to get involved in the global fight against HIV and AIDS. Dance4Life was founded in the Netherlands in 2004 and is the official youth campaign of the World AIDS Campaign. Dance4Life is endorsed by the former Secretary General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan.

HIV & AIDS are hitting young people the hardest. Globally, almost a quarter of the people living with HIV are under the age of 25. Every 15 seconds a young person is newly infected with HIV.

With almost 3 billion people under the age of 25, today’s generation of youth is the largest in history. These young people are growing up in a world changed by HIV & AIDS, but many still lack the correct knowledge.

"Dance4Life is a wonderful example of how the talent and strength of young people can energise our struggle"
- Kofi Annan, Secretary General of the United Nations

Dance4Life aims to actively inspire young people to take the lead in pushing back HIV and AIDS, and to become young leaders and agents of change. To make this happen, Dance4Life uses elements of youth culture, including music and dance, to educate young people and to inspire them to take action. Dancing is healthy and positive, and is a universal language amongst young people. Through Dance4Life young people can start dancing with a cause.

Dance4life aims to inspire 1 million young people to dance for life across the world by the end of 2014. Please visit our international website for more information.

Start dancing, Stop AIDS, Dance4Life.
