We were delighted to have the opportunity to discuss STORIES4WINGS during the Final Summit of The Europe Challenge 2025/2026, organised by the European Cultural Foundation and hosted at the Amsterdam Public Library.

Alongside the presentation of the project Scenes for Change, we had the opportunity to introduce the STORIES4WINGS methodology to participants visiting our Marketplace stand. It was inspiring to exchange ideas with library professionals and changemakers from more than 20 countries and discuss how storytelling can support the development of values, skills and competences in the prison context.

We are grateful for the interest, engaging conversations and new connections that helped us write another chapter in the STORIES4WINGS journey and bring the power of stories to new audiences across Europe.

We have also presented the library of the "Prison of Albolote" and the fantastic work of AVOPRI, the Granada volunteer association working in prisons.

Thanks to all participants!!
