FUTURE-ART Partners Advance Advocacy and Policy Influence Activities

On 15 June 2026, partners of the FUTURE-ART project came together for an online consortium meeting organised and hosted by InnoPolis as part of Activity A2.1.3 – Advocacy & Policy Influence.

The meeting focused on strengthening the project’s advocacy strategy and planning how FUTURE-ART’s objectives and messages will be communicated to key stakeholders across Europe over the next two years.

During the session, partners reviewed relevant conferences, events, and networking opportunities taking place across all partner countries between July 2026 and August 2028. Discussions explored how each partner can participate effectively and maximise the project’s visibility and impact.

To support a consistent representation of the project, InnoPolis will develop a FUTURE-ART pitching card and participation pack, providing partners with practical tools and key messaging materials for use at external events and engagements.

Partners also agreed to continue sharing information on national events and to identify the most suitable opportunities based on relevance, geographic proximity, budget considerations, and timing. In addition, the consortium discussed how advocacy activities can be closely aligned with the project’s wider dissemination and multiplier event strategy.

We would like to thank InnoPolis for organising and hosting the meeting, our Lead Partner CNAM for its guidance, and all project partners—IPS / Qualify Just, UniCal, SEHA, Spin System, and MDS—for their active participation and continued collaboration.

Together, the FUTURE-ART partnership remains committed to its mission of combating human trafficking through art, youth engagement, advocacy, and cross-sector cooperation.

FUTURE-ART is co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union.
