The arts and cultural sector has been hit particularly hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. In times of crisis, however, culture plays a central role and cultural exchange is necessary to understand the situation of our European neighbours, and to develop ideas and strategies for the future collectively. The Genshagen Foundation cordially invites you to join a series of online discussions that seek to explore solutions to this crisis, sustainability in the sector, and the role of civil society.
