In this keynote Q&A, Commissioner Glenn Micallef outlines how the Compass will align policy and funding, improve consistency across EU instruments, and guide future initiatives that strengthen creativity, cohesion, well-being, and democratic resilience.
Moderator Ruth Koleva will translate the framework into practical implications for artists, venues, festivals, and intermediaries across the Balkans and wider Europe: coordination between programmes (e.g., Creative Europe, cohesion/RRP), fair remuneration and mobility, digital/AI transitions, sustainability, inclusion, and tackling geographic under-representation.[/su_column][su_column size=”1/3″ center=”no” class=”speakers-list”]
