Kick-off in Marseille: EMCCINNO’s Cultural Transitions Take Shape
From 27–28 February 2025, EMCCINNO officially launched at La Friche La Belle de Mai in Marseille, France. This vibrant cultural venue hosted the project’s Kick-off Meeting, bringing together all partners for two days of deep exchange, inspiration and strategic alignment.
The meeting opened space for collective visioning, small-group discussions, and collaborative planning around the project’s main themes: culture, climate transitions, and community empowerment. Through participatory formats — including open space sessions and interactive tours — participants began shaping the prototypes, methods and connections that will guide EMCCINNO over the next three years.
With contributions from partners across Europe, including transformation site leads, artistic teams, advisors and communicators, the event set a strong foundation for a shared journey.
A special thank you to La Friche for hosting us in their dynamic space — a powerful example of culture in action. Stay tuned as EMCCINNO moves forward with co-creation, experimentation, and inspiring change from the ground up.
