Its aim is to stimulate reflection and critical thinking. As a knowledge platform, we organise events and initiate and support projects that are in line with our strategic focus. ELIA’s offer is inclusive and diverse – it serves the needs of art schools throughout all levels, from academic staff and international officers to students and upper management.
