BIG IDEAS IN LISBON was a conference programme In 2018, we continued Big Ideas in Lisbon, a programme of conferences and cultural events designed to complement the Foundation’s mission of social and cultural integration of Lisbon’s diverse communities.
This year, we highlight the conference ‘Creative Conflicts in the Capital of Saudade: Struggle & Rewards’. The event brought together a diverse panel of expatriate creators who shared their stories of living in Lisbon:
Peter Murphy: Irish-Canadian writer.
Jonathan Weighman: English teacher and member of the Lisbon Players.
Amanda Booth: English teacher and radio presenter.
Suresh Nampuri: German film director and member of Já International Theatre and Lisbon Players.
This initiative received essential support from Bookshop Bivar as a partner, and co-financing from Sonae and the City of Lisbon Foundation.
