LEAP is a project co-financed by the European Commission that seeks to stimulate broad and comprehensive reflection on the historical truths surrounding colonial legacies. By exploring the deep-rooted links between these legacies and contemporary racism, the project aims to create a space for reflection, dialogue, and transformation.
This session is part of a series of online conversations aimed at cultural and political decision-makers, focused on developing fairer cultural policies.
The project is developed by an international consortium that brings together Gerador (Portugal), Les Anneaux de la MĂ©moire (France), Achac Research Group (France), Pro Progressione (Hungary), and BJCEM – Biennale des Jeunes CrĂ©ateurs de l’Europe et de la MĂ©diterranĂ©e (Belgium).
