ACCAC Finland and ACCAC Belgium together with the City of Tampere, Tampere Region EU Office and Asse Municipality are organising an official NEB FEST side event on Saturday 11 June 2022 from 11:00-18:00 in Asse, Belgium (located 15 km from Brussels and accessible by direct bus and train).

The event under the title "Inclusive NEB FEST for Youth" will include an open stage for various inclusive concerts and performances, workshops, and a concert at the park by DJ Arthro (Sweden). The seminar session will focus on the topic of radical inclusion of the youth with methodology presentations and a panel discussion. Performances and workshops will be run by various professionals from the ACCAC network and beyond.

The goal of the event is to bring people from different backgrounds, cultures, and with various needs together, all as equal, and to start developing a strong youth network of creative minds.
