14 May: European Dialogues, ‘Writing the war’ and ‘Europe at war?’
5 Apr 2024
The two Dutch editions of “In the Face of War – European Dialogue” on May 14 are initiated by Institut Français and organised in partnership with De Balie, Institut français NL, Arte, Ouest France, Le Grand Continent and the European Cultural Foundation. The project aims to foster dialogue and debate surrounding the upheavals in Europe instigated by the war in Ukraine. Following a project launch in Prague, and a second edition in autumn 2023, five events will be held during the course of 2024, in Warsaw, Sofia, Helsinki, Amsterdam and Rennes, with others to follow in 2025. Two editions will take place in Amsterdam on May 14:
The first one kicks off at 18.00h and is titled ‘Writing the war’.
