On a sunny day, a large group of people in light summer clothes stand spread out across a grassy courtyard, most with their backs to the camera. They face a long red-brick building with a row of tall arched windows. Young trees and a large dark-leaved tree frame the scene.
A black-and-white photograph shows a diverse group of people walking down a paved, cobblestone European street or pedestrian walkway lined with trees and buildings. Some individuals are talking and smiling, and a person in the background holds up a light-colored flag. A stylized, bright pink geometric butterfly graphic is overlaid on the right side of the image, contrasting with the monochrome scene.
Close-up photo with a red monochrome duotone filter showing a hand placing a small paper note labeled "EMPATHY" onto a worksheet during a group exercise, likely a values-mapping or workshop activity. The visible worksheet reads "mapping" with instructions about grouping similar values together, and a circular sticker labeled "Values" is visible in the bottom right. A pair of glasses rests on the table in the blurred background.
Title slide: 'A sector contribution to the work plan for culture 2027–2030,' with the Culture Action Europe logo and a black-and-white illustration of flowers, roots, and insects.
Abstract, glowing ring of light with radiating orange, blue, and yellow streaks against a black background.
