Future challenges for the program include:
- Include training in craft theatrical trades (shoemaking, costume design, carpentry, etc.), leveraging factory theaters as nodes or partners.
- Intensify training in practical crafts in formats like workshops in the fields of stage fundamentals.
- Enhance exchanges between beneficiaries through concrete actions and meetings in various factory theaters in the country by increasing the commitment of participating partner theaters.
- Multiply the effect of training so that program beneficiaries can act as trainers in future cohorts and generations of participating technicians and techniques (train the trainers).
- Include more content linked to best practices and stage safety.
- Add content and training on gender-based violence in work settings.
