The Future of Mobility in Culture

<https://kulturanova.hr/>Kultura Nova 
Foundation is organizing online discussions on 
the future of mobility in culture within the 
i-Portunus Houses project.

We kindly invite you to participate in online 
discussions on the future of mobility dedicated 
to local hosts (actors that host artists/cultural 
professionals at the destination) and artists and 
cultural professionals that will be held on the 
following dates:

for local hosts on Wednesday, February 16th 2022 from 13h till 15h CEST
for artists and cultural professionals 
on Wednesday, February 23rd from 13h till 15h 
CEST.
Both discussions are organized in the framework 
of the research on mobility in culture, 
implemented by <https://kulturanova.hr/>Kultura 
Nova Foundation, European Cultural Foundation 
and <https://www.mitost.org/>MitOst within 
the <https://www.i-portunus.eu/about-the-programme-host/>i-Portunus 
Houses project. The online discussions are 
envisaged as an open space for all participants 
to share their experiences and views on their 
role and the role of other stakeholders in the 
future of mobility in culture and in that way 
contribute to the research on mobility in culture 
and the development of the scenarios for the 
future of cross-border mobility grant schemes 
specifically for the cultural sector that would 
improve mobility infrastructure.

The future of mobility in culture will be 
discussed in group conversations considering 
three thematic focuses: green dimension, mobility 
infrastructure, inclusion and access while also 
taking into account the challenges brought on by 
the COVID-19 pandemic.

Each discussion will be organized in three 
smaller groups in order to enable active 
participation and engage all of the participants 
in a meaningful way. Each group will have a 
conversation on all three specific topics guided 
and facilitated by moderators Toni Attard 
(Culture Venture), Ana Îuvela (Institute for 
Development and International Relations) and 
Vedran Horvat (Institute for Political Ecology).

behalf of European Commision, by a consortium led 
by European Cultural Foundation and partners

transnational mobility schemes for the cultural 
sector. One of the key components of the project 
is also the research on mobility in culture. More
