Materahub’s commitment across the Mediterranean region continues. In October, we participated as trainers in the second edition of CREAMed, the course we co-curated with the Cypriot Organization for European Programmes and Cultural Relations (OEPCR). Together with the Anna Lindh Foundation and the British Council Office for Greece and Cyprus, we crafted a hands-on training programme for cultural and creative professionals from across the Euro-Mediterranean region.
