The Festival Academy calls for urgent attention to the crisis in Ukraine in scope of its online activity format: a series of conversations focusing on different countries and regions in need of international support. The conversations aim to raise awareness and knowledge about the current arts and culture sector situation and how it is impacted by their current political and economic conditions.

The Festival Academy invites you to two online sessions in solidarity with Ukraine on February 25th and 28th.

These hotspot series focus on Ukraine, an urgent highlight that gave us the opportunity to understand in depth what is happening in the country and to build bridges and strategies for enhancing international cooperation.

The Hotspot Ukraine will engage artists and activists who are directly affected by the situation in the country.​  The first session will take place online on 25 February at 1:00 pm (CET/Brussels Time) / 2:00 pm (Ukraine Time).

You can read a report of the session here.
