1. Reflect on the friction points and enriching aspects of developing artworks/ creative research in natural environments 
2. Debate on the format of Artistic Residencies, understanding its potential as meeting points for art and land, and inquiring on its possible negative impacts on the sites and local communities. 
3. Do we create in the landscape or with the landscape? 
4. What does a residency/ residency space mean in the broader global context of today and the conflicts affecting directly the Mediterranean and SWANA region?  
5. How can we build new support systems and solidarity as well as artistic exchanges/collaboration between artists and residency spaces in these regions?
