A session with participants of the 'Next Generation' Programme before the ASSITEJ Artistic Gathering 2023 (Serbia) officially begins in order to introduce them to the Next Generation (NG) Network. The session will underline that this is not the end but is actually the beginning of their engagement with the Next Generation Network and with ASSITEJ International as a whole. We will share video statements from Next Generation alumni describing what they got out of their time on the programme and how the Network can continue to be a source of inspiration, support, and community going forward. We will stress how recent participants not only have each other to rely on but are also now part of a wider alumni community, especially given the opportunities afforded to us by virtual networking and events to share information about future possible collaborations, new project calls, and networking opportunities.
