URBAN POLICY MOST Music is all about building a stronger, more personal network between the Balkan music market and Western Europe. As our Team realized, to boost the region’s music scene, more local opportunities are also needed – this is what Urban Project Hub is all about. As one of the four pillars of MOST, Urban Project Hub served as an incubator for innovative projects from around the Balkans that connect the music industry to their respective urban environment. The programme supported music-related projects that boost the music scene of a city or region. Selected participants, so-called Urban Creatives, set out to realize their plans with the financial and expert support provided by MOST, creating much-needed and unique urban projects. MOST offered training, mentoring and networking opportunities to assist them in their diverse ventures: creative camps, raising awareness about the independent music scene in Bitola, or a festival showcasing young local artists. Discover the 12 Urban Creatives selected from the total of 21 participants in the pillar, who completed a mini-project during their time in the programme.
