Since January 2024, the IN.TUNE programme has brought together eight European partners to promote the development of music and arts education across Europe. Beyond collaboration in knowledge and expertise, such alliances carry a strong political vision aimed at strengthening solidarity among countries while promoting democratic values, academic freedom, and cultural diversity. The goal is to build a Europe open to the world, capable of addressing current social, economic, and environmental challenges. Within this framework, the Conservatoire national supérieur de musique et de danse de Paris has decided to spotlight one of the universities in this alliance each season. The first stop on this European journey: Serbia. Journalist, Balkan specialist, and correspondent for numerous French-speaking media outlets, Louis Seiller travelled to meet the students and professors of the Faculty of Music in Belgrade.

Sixteen innovative interdisciplinary educational formats have been selected by the Work Package 3 Committee, responsible for developing a joint educational provision in the Alliance, following the open Call for Proposals issued in autumn 2024. Over the next two and a half years, these formats will be developed, tested, and implemented through deep transnational cooperation, providing students with flexible learning opportunities and alternative pathways to education. The selection includes eight joint online courses, four blended intensive programmes (BIPs), two joint modules, and two joint programmes.
