Our main goal is to organize annual gatherings by and for professionals in the network. Each forum is held in a different country and focuses on a contemporary theme in the field of culture and arts. The annual meetings aim to:

  • promote the network's values

  • exchange experiences and best practices

  • build relationships and foster collaboration among members from various countries and disciplines

  • establish connections with local cultural operators in the host country

  • expand knowledge about the realities of working in culture across diverse social, cultural, and political contexts

  • improve the knowledge about European, national and regional cultural policies and practice

  • develop professional capacities and managerial skills by collecting a new experience of working in different cultural fields

  • prepare participants to play active roles in reform democratic processes and use innovative and efficient practices in local development

  • support integration and cooperation within European Union and non-European countries
