Green Growth, an accelerator for communities on sustainability is in its 9th month of life! Today we launch a call for ideas aimed at young people and talents in Turin and Cuneo areas for the Storytelling and Photojournalism project, and a call for interest to hire partners in the area to identify spaces where to co-develop and co-curate the results of creative projects and products.

Based on the principles of the New European Bauhaus, GreenGrowth co-designed and launched in Lebanon the Storytelling Workshop (within the Education, Art and Culture Program) led by Jacob Russell. The pilot training course involved young creatives (Lebanese and non-Lebanese) and worked on the development of issues such as accessibility to transport, slow fashion, energy and human rights. After the training session and the fieldwork, the pairs of photographers and writers developed their own micro-projects.

The next step is to involve other talents and professionals in the sector with the aim of deepening the issues addressed by including different approaches and creative perspectives, and then conclude the journey with an exhibition. The goal is to give visibility to emerging talents and create new opportunities for collaboration in Lebanon, Italy and beyond.
