SafeMuse: Presentation of the report ”My power is the people!”, Music Freedom Day in Harstad (2016)
During Music Freedom Day i Harstad, “The art of Activism – The art of Pacifism”, on March 3 I will present the report that I have written on behalf of the City of Malmö regarding the implementation of Malmö’s first guest program for musicians at risk. The report is based on conversations with guest musician Ramy Essam, Kairo, ICORN-resident in Malmö 2014-2016. In the program I will also lead a panel of brave activists.
Download the report here, or from the websites of the Swedish Arts Council or the City of Malmö.
