GLEN (Great Little European Network) connects the smallest countries of Europe through common networking and training programmes with the objective of contributing to designing more meaningful practices and more sustainable performing arts sectors in the concerned countries, interconnecting them and taking a prominent place on the international scene. The network aims to be an incubator for those who, while benefiting from a local anchorage, ambition to develop their practice internationally.

For the first occurrence of the series, our partner from Kosovo, Florent Mehmeti from teatri ODA, will give an update about his projects and programs, including the new IN SITU Platform 2024-2028 giving opportunities for emerging artists presenting in public space.
