Designing and Intermediating Professional Mobility Experiences for Live Art Workers

Designing and Intermediating Professional Mobility Experiences for Live Art Workers

Learning Trajectories handbooks are intended as a resource for any organisation that wishes to develop a professional development programme with the aim of helping live art workers to broaden their thinking, practices and networks beyond national borders.

The third document Designing and intermediating professional mobility experiences for live art workers highlights the relevance of cross-border cultural mobility and its impact on the professional and creative development of artists and culture professionals. Undertaking a mobility experience helps participants embrace diversity and test approaches outside a familiar environment.

In order to maximise the experience, mobility needs intermediaries who facilitate participants’ experiences in an inclusive and accessible way. These intermediaries provide access to new professionals, stakeholders and markets, taking care of mitigating possible cultural, social and physical barriers. This handbook aims at raising questions in order to enhance the quality and success of the mobility experiences, see them from a different angle and contributing to sustainable, accessible and inclusive practices.
