Join the European Cultural and Creative Industries Innovation Policy Platform (ekip) in this webinar where we will discuss the main findings and recommendations from our policy lab on enabling the role of cultural and creative industries in the green transition. 

About this webinar

Over the last decade the potential role of cultural and creative industries (CCIs) in the green transition in our economy and society at large has been increasingly accented by sector organisations and policy makers. The New European Bauhaus is a interdisciplinary flagship initiative bridging the world of science and technology, art and culture to address complex societal challenges, such as the green transition, through co-creation. The initiative mobilises and associates several EU research & innovation funding opportunities to support the achievement of the New European Bauhaus objectives.  

But to what extent do European  innovation programs and funding opportunities successfully involve the CCIs as an agent of change to drive green innovation in other sectors? During ekip’s second policy lab, we discussed together with experts and practioners what the barriers are that hinder the involvement of CCIs and which good practices exist to make green programs more inclusive for the CCIs.  

In this webinar we will present and discuss the main findings and recommendations gathered from this policy lab.
 

Target audience

The webinar is targeted towards: 

• CCI-practitioners/representatives involved in R&I-projects on green transition or with an interest to contribute as an innovation actor to societal transitions. 

• Policy makers on regional/local and EU-level involved in applying the New European Bauhaus-principles in research & innovation-policies and instruments. 

• Civil society-stakeholders active in the green transition and other societal transitions.. 

About ekip

ekip is a EU-funded flagship-project that will follow the principles of open innovation to establish a policy recommendation engine driven by partners and the active involvement of 40+ CCI-networks. This engine will continuously promote the development and adoption of policy recommendations for CCIs, resulting in support and guidance that enhances the ability of CCI actors to participate in and contribute to complex innovation processes. 

How to take part?

The webinar will take place on October 28, 2024 from 12:30 – 1:30 pm. (Registration info/link to be added)
