Futura C is a cross-border journey into the future of sustainable and inclusive culture. Bringing together artistic professionals from France, Germany, and beyond, the project empowers the cultural sector to rethink how events are imagined, designed, and produced.
At its core, Futura C equips cultural practitioners with the tools and confidence to create event formats that are environmentally responsible, socially fair, and creatively bold. Through an international workshop series and a hands-on digital toolkit, participants discover practical strategies inspired by the EU GreenComp Framework as well as the EU principles of equality, diversity, and non-discrimination.
Anchored in the European Qualifications Framework (EQF), Futura C supports professional development that truly makes a difference: participants learn skills they can apply immediately while shaping a more sustainable cultural landscape for the long term.
Futura C is not just a project — it’s a movement toward greener, fairer, and more future-ready cultural experiences across Europe.
Futura C partners with festivals, conferences, and cultural platforms eager to push sustainability and inclusion from theory into action. When we collaborate with an event, we bring:
Dynamic on-site workshops that activate teams and inspire new ways of working
Expert knowledge on sustainable production, from low-impact logistics to smarter resource use
Fresh perspectives on inclusion, accessibility, and equitable participation
Ready-to-use tools and guidelines that help organisers implement improvements right away
Transnational insights that open doors to new creative and organisational ideas
For host festivals and conferences, joining Futura C means strengthening their sustainability profile while offering their staff and partners a meaningful professional development opportunity.
Our workshops are designed for everyone shaping the cultural and event sector — whether backstage, on the planning table, or in the coordination office. This includes:
Festival and event organisers
Cultural managers and producers
Production crews and technicians
Cultural educators
Teams from cultural institutions, associations, and NGOs
Participants dive into an inspiring blend of practical learning and creative exchange. Our workshops help them:
Build real-world skills for sustainable event design, from waste reduction to energy-smart planning
Create more inclusive and welcoming event formats, ensuring everyone has access and a voice
Connect their learning to recognised professional standards through the EQF
Experiment with innovative methods using case studies, group exercises, and shared expertise
Bring lasting change to their organisations through actionable insights and tested tools
