Three organisations, one shared question
CREATE PURPOSE is carried out by three non-governmental organisations from Germany, Greece and Romania — each bringing a different artistic and social lens to the same question: how can art help build a future that is more sustainable, inclusive and beautiful?

Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung Schleswig-Holstein
Civic education and public-interest design. HBS coordinates the project and hosts the residency on Aesthetics.

STIPO Greece
Community-driven placemaking and urban culture. STIPO hosts the residency on Sustainability.

Atelierul European de Artă
Youth work and cultural inclusion through theatre, scenic movement and film. AEA hosts the residency on Inclusion.
Together, we combine civic education, urban placemaking and grassroots youth work — three different starting points, one goal: communities that shape their own future through art.
Co-funded by the European Union — Creative Europe Programme.
