Jamm’Europe, is an ephemeral online platform, an open space to discuss what role culture and the arts can play in the future of Europe. Which scenarios, what policy proposals we, cultural players aspire to? How do we envision Europe of Culture?

This spring, Juncker commission published the white paper on the Future of Europe presenting five possible scenarios for the EU’s future. As a result, Culture Action Europe (CAE) initiated discussion process among cultural operators to contribute to a vision guiding us into a sustainable future of the European project. We are reaching out, taking pulse of the cultural sector from Europe and beyond to collectively shape a cultural scenario. A joint manifesto, drafted by Culture Action Europe and opened for endorsements will be the final result of this reflection exercise.

We already consulted our members, partners and friends during the CAE hub meetings in Croatia, UK, Italy, Germany, Belgium, Sweden, Hungary and France. See more here. Now it’s the time to open up the discussion to the wider public.

Join us, be curious, share your vision of the Future of Europe that includes culture, arts and education. Your voice and your ideas will shape our collective vision of Europe of Culture! We are online on the 5th of July, from 14:00 till 21:00 (CET). www.jammart.eu

We will start with 4 kick-of discussion questions:

1. Liberté, égalité, fraternité? Let’s talk values

2. Citizens, creators or consumers: how can culture sustain the EU?

3. Creative or vulnerable: can culture drive positive globalisation?

4.  Cooperate or corporate: Can we offer alternatives for economic development & the future of work?
