We detected 5 topics that present particular challenges in the current arts ecosystem. They are complementary topics that form a systematic analysis of major challenges for the sector. They are open questions that will guide discussions in 5 trajectories and provide content to the process by which concrete answers and solutions will be proposed and tested.
Trajectories are bringing together 40 participants, “Reshapers”, invited through an open selection process, to provide concrete proposals of strategies and instruments to advance on one of the 5 challenges, in the course of 18 months, in 15 workshops and remote work.
The Solidarity Economies trajectory will continue shaping their rough ideas on what prototypes they want to work on. With help of the external facilitator, Konrad Gadzina, the group will focus on developing the manifesto that will underpin the principles for all other 5 prototypes ideas.

On the edge of Zagreb, there is a forest where locals take walks, relax and enjoy the air. Unlike the nearby Maksimir Park, where there is a zoo, a children’s playground, a restaurant and other entertainment facilities, this park is not overcrowded and is not a major destination for families seeking a leisurely Sunday stroll.

"Degrowth" has emerged over the last 15 years. This "bomb word" has been used to open in-depth debates on whether infinite growth in a finite world is desirable or even possible. Degrowth first deconstructs the myth that growth is the central solution for the impasse our capitalist, productivist and consumerist societies have led us to.
