🏛 Earlier this month, we gathered in Athens with fellow Sphera Network partners to map out our vision for Sphera 2025—and, of course, to savor our share of gyros! Our mission? To make human stories from our continent crossing borders and bridging cultures. 🌐 This is the heart of the Sphera project: an alliance of independent media from across Europe working together to make stories from the continent relatable and relevant ✨. For our Europod colleagues Alexander Damiano Ricci, Eliot Dickinson and Constance Hautier, this gathering was an exciting chance to discuss our contributions to Sphera through two key projects: - Europe Day by Day (with a new season launching later this month 🎉 ) - Europe Talks Back Both podcast series spotlight real-life European stories, making them accessible to all. We left Athens inspired and ready to connect across languages, cultures, and generations. 🌍✨ A big thank you to our partners Sphera Network, Médianes, Dinamo, Arty Farty, StreetPress, El Salto, Krytyka Polityczna, 444 and Propaganda who share this vision with us! #SpheraNetwork #EuropeanJournalism #EuropeanPodcast
