Europe – as a geopolitical concept, its residents, communities, and countries – is a multilingual space where people communicate in multiple languages such as Polish Sign Language, Ukrainian, Arabic, Tamazight, Spanish, Sami, Greek, and Shelta. These languages
may arise from ethnicity, a country, or a region but also from disability contexts. They interact within multiple physical, geographical, socio-political, and virtual spaces, and open new possibilities for theatre.</div>

Dramaturgies: Towards New European Theatre</a></u></i></span> (Springer 2024). Written in a dialogue with diverse artists and their languages, it argues for multilingual theatre's central role in Europe’s futures. The book reveals a complex set of negotiations
involved in the creative and political tasks of staging multilingualism, as well as funding and working models. Through different theatrical, historical, cultural, and geographic contexts, the book features over 60 languages that arise from state, ethnicity,
region, and disability. <i>Multilingual Dramaturgies</i> offers new ways of understanding identity in European contexts.</div>

<b>Forced Migration and The Arts</b> is an international network that brings together people with lived experience of forced migration, refugee and non-refugee artists, academics and art spaces for conversation looking at work taking place at the intersection
where forced migration and the arts meet. Developed with support from the University of Manchester’s Humanities Global Scholars Fund, the network hosts monthly indabas or discussion forums on the last Thursday of each month and encourages mutual support and
