REPURPOSE aims to transform vacant urban spaces in central Amman into temporary cultural hubs, known as “Third Places”. This initiative focuses on supporting emerging female creatives under 35, particularly artists, cultural entrepreneurs, and start-up founders, by providing them with spaces for cultural expression and community engagement, to be activated and operated for a duration of 6 months.
The project promotes intercultural collaboration, gender equality, and sustainable urban development, with mentorship from European experts in urban revitalisation. The project is funded by the EUNIC Cluster Fund. The European Union National Institutes for Culture (EUNIC) is the European network of organizations engaging in cultural relations from all EU member states.
If you have information about abandoned spaces that could serve as a cultural hub, please send us an email at:
