FEDEC Mapping 2024

The FEDEC Mapping is a recurring survey conducted every 2–3 years to document the evolution of the professional circus education sector across the FEDEC network.

The Mapping provides both a snapshot of the network’s composition (with quantitative data about students, teachers and administrative & technical staff) and a deeper analysis of specific focus topics. This initiative is essential to understand trends and challenges in circus education, to inform advocacy, and to strengthen cooperation between schools.

Previous editions were carried out in 2021 and 2023, plus a special edition in 2020 focused on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The 2024 edition focused on professional integration mechanisms and the links FEDEC schools have with the leisure sector.
