Uruguay 50 years

Hello to the music therapy community around the globe!

This time I am bringing some news from our colleagues in Uruguay, who are going through a very special celebration time.

Music therapy has been established fifty years ago in their country. To celebrate, they are hosting this month a national event called “Jornada 50 Años de Musicoterapia en Uruguay” with the support of the Universidad de la República Oriental del Uruguay.

The Asociación de Musicoterapeutas del Uruguay (AMU) was created in 2016. Since then, the association has been working on the legal regulations for the music therapy profession, the development of the code of ethics, while also building a comprehensive and diverse music therapy library, hosting conferences to promote the discipline across the country as well as building relationships with other disciplines associations.

The music therapy community there is gradually growing and eager to build connections with the rest of the world.

On behalf the WFMT congratulations on your 50th Anniversary of music therapy developments in Uruguay! Join the celebration of our colleagues in the social media!
