As part of the EU.TOPIA season at la Gaîté Lyrique, the media We are Europe is taking over the first-floor of the Parisian venue for a series of talks bringing together artists as well as cultural and media players from all over Europe.
From Porto to Tbilisi, Kyiv or Budapest, the series of talks will present initiatives, stories and realities of different personalities in the European cultural and media sphere. Imagined as a geopolitical atlas of live culture, this cycle aims at outlining the contours of another Europe, embodied by projects and personalities with artistic visions and alternative narratives capable of addressing the major challenges of our time.
This live talk at la Gaîté Lyrique will gather both in-person and online speakers to share their local experiences remotely. All talks will be held in English.

We are Europe :
We are Europe has emerged in 2015 through a Creative Europe cooperation between 8 festivals across Europe, and was led by French non-profit organisation Arty Farty. Originally designed to enhance co-curation activities notably in terms of festival programming, the cooperation evolved with the creation of a media platform in order to put the spotlight on inspiring change makers, who are shaping the future of European culture. While the cooperation ended in 2022, Arty Farty keeps using We are Europe as a media platform able to reflect on culture in Europe, based on the contemporary challenges that we are all facing: independence, inclusion and diversity, youth and transmission, resources and financing, as well as sustainability.
As a European digital media aggregation platform, We are Europe aims at creating a new space to share the cultural transformations that are shaping Europe. This platform features written, talked or visual stories throughout the year, from all over the continent, and from different European projects, as told by the very people who are driving change in all areas of society.
