The main premise of this call is that a joint approach of the digital with the arts will help induce changes in our mind-sets, at business, societal and individual level regarding water management and help communicate differently about water to raise public awareness on the importance of water, for example by using art and digital to reinforce emotional links of humans with water.

The purpose of this preparatory action “Writing European” is to help the European audiovisual industry to develop excellence in creating and writing high-quality drama content and foster innovative storytelling.
