The Moving Identities residency programme offers a European network of residencies and organisations who wish to open a new world for artists to play within. The focus is European identities today, and the dream is to connect artists, venues, and organisations across borders in an eco-friendly way.
Goals
Mentorship
In between and during residencies, the platform offers mentorship in topics of internationalisation, audience development, sustainability, and touring, and helps artists develop their career internationally.
Artist development and inclusivity
To increase representation in the performing arts, Moving Identities connect venues across Europe who support artist development. The platform enables an exchange of best practice, challenges, and solutions, amongst artists and organisations across Europe. The consortium is built by organisations who specialise in residencies, mentoring and artist support. The aim to use their experience to collectively find a more inclusive way of supporting performing artists.
Eco Travel Map
The Eco Travel Map is a tool for artists to explore how to travel between the Moving Identities cities in an eco-friendly way. Sustainable travel is a part of the DNA of Moving Identities. That is why the artists are encouraged to travel with the lowest carbon footprint possible. The Eco Travel Map is developed by Sustainable Culture NOW, one of the Moving Identities partners.
