DAJU began its history on August 6, 2018, offering a space for the professional development and consolidation of young dance performers between the ages of 18 and 24, recently graduated from professional schools or in the process of professional consolidation. This platform, promoted by Difusión Cultural UNAM and Danza UNAM, and currently directed by Andrea Chirinos Brown, promotes research and experimentation as a working method for the creation of contemporary dance. DAJU's work follows the fundamental principles of a university, as dance is not a craft that can be taught but rather emerges from networks of knowledge that connect students, feeds on the individual perceptions of each member, and generates collective knowledge. Another of DAJU's objectives is to activate various unconventional performance spaces on and off the university campus.
