  •  PROJECTS
Creative Network is Albanian Creative People in Exile in UK’s (ACPE) initiative that brings diverse groups together from many creative areas across UK, to contribute to the actual debate on intercultural dialogue and to aspire for contribution in creative industry in UK as a good reason of building bridges between British creative people and Albanian creative people in the UK. Intercultural dialogue covers a wide range of issues from ethnically based conflict and economic migration, to religious tolerance and equal opportunities. It is one of the most important priorities for societies worldwide today, so we inspire these creative people to focus on their work to explore new facts and issues in writing, and other creative work. The aim of this initiative is to contribute to the Albanian young writers and understanding among the others including the Albanian writers, filmmakers, and other creative people in the UK, by delivering a series of networks and public forums on the opportunities, threats and implications of increasingly complex societies. The project focuses on two main themes which are highly important in terms of creative dialogue: “Participation of creative people from minority communities in public life” and “New creative people from migrant communities & their impact on society”. Each participating people will be running project activities under one of these themes. This initiative will also cover a series of multilateral projects, including education and arts programmes, young people’s programmes and international workshops. Launched in May 2009, Creative Collaboration is an Albanian Creative People in Exile in UK (ACPE) initiative to build networks for dialogue and debate across the arts communities of Albanian, Kosovan, Macedonian and Montenegrin creative people and other creative people in the UK, aiming to enrich the cultural life of the Albanian creative community in the UK. Creative Collaboration uses innovative approaches to networking to encourage arts and cultural leaders from different communities and different art forms to talk together, learn from each other and develop new partnerships for effective cross-border working.
