FEST, the Federation for European Storytelling, is partner in INSIDE-ACT, an Erasmus+ project coordinated by the University of Florence (UNIFI). It brings together a consortium of 14 organisations across 6 European countries. The partnership unites higher education institutions, cultural organisations, digital enterprises, technology clusters and vocational education and training (VET) centres, all working toward a shared goal: developing an innovative training framework for the Immersive Storytelling Designer (ISD), a professional figure capable of critically and strategically using advanced immersive technologies to communicate European values and address contemporary social challenges.
