Cooperating organizations

Collaborating organizations for the project are the Brussels-based media collective Are We Europe & the festival Arctic Sounds based in Greenland.

Are We Europe is a media collective made up of 500+ journalists and creators founded by and for young creatives in Europe with the aim of raising voices from the peripheries and reporting on issues of European identity through collaborations between aspiring, motivated creators.

Arctic Sounds - an annual music and arts festival that takes place in Sisimiut, Greenland with the aim of strengthening and paying attention to Nordic musical acts.

The team will initiate a collaboration in Sisimiut, Greenland- under the festival Arctic Sounds, and will be given time to brainstorm and create music and a storyline together with the support from a program containing methods for artistic work.

The result of the collaboration will be an EP with newly written music and stories about the participants and the process.
