The conversations, collaborations, and ideas shared during those days continue to shape what comes next.
The conference concluded with a shared reflection on Contact Zones as real, complex spaces for dialogue, difference, and collective agency. Participants explored practical methodologies, questions of sustainability, cultural rights, and positionality, emphasizing the importance of long-term, structural engagement.
The TCZ project positioned itself as an ongoing process and an invitation to continued collaboration within a growing community of practice.
We want to thank each and every one of you — participants, partners, TCZ alumni, and contributors — for being part of these inspiring days. Your energy, ideas, and commitment truly made this gathering meaningful.
This was only the beginning: the ongoing trainings and the project’s future conference in summer 2026 represent the next steps in our shared journey.
