What is the Re-Imagine Europe project?
Re-Imagine Europe is a four-year project aimed at responding to the urgent social and political challenges currently facing the continent. Rising nationalism, climate change and migration are drawing European countries apart, while technological advances continue to change the ways that we interact, urging us to explore new modes of operation. Funded by Creative Europe, the project involves the development and presentation of artistic residencies, commissions, workshops and symposia, using art to empower a generation of young, digitally connected Europeans to explore new ideas.

Re-Imagine Europe is initiated by Sonic Acts (NL) and coordinated by Paradiso (NL) in collaboration with the following partners: Elevate Festival (AT), Lighthouse (UK), INA GRM (FR), Bergen Kunsthall (NO), A4 (SK), KONTEJNER (HR) and Ràdio Web MACBA (ES).

The partners take a lead on developing the programme activities. Paradiso acts as lead partner and manages and coordinates the project’s overarching activities, deliverables, internal and external communication. We are looking for an intern to support the communication and project management.
