The Europe Challenge programme of the European Cultural Foundation is on the frontline of breathing new life into European libraries. In 2024, over 50 libraries from 20+ countries across the continent will come together with their communities to address pressing challenges: from threats to democracy, loneliness, climate change, mental health, participation of young people, refugee inclusion, and so much more. Donate now and help us secure the vital future of libraries in Europe!
