Ten Lives
Restoring Europe’s water cycles through music festivals
The Ten Lives Festival brings together citizens, landowners, artists, entrepreneurs and municipalities around concrete, creative and collective solutions for the ecological transition. Each festival is based on a scientific assessment of the most suitable locations in the Mediterranean region to accelerate the restoration of water cycles and combat desertification in Europe.
The programme combines guided regeneration activities, workshops, talks and concerts, creating a bridge between culture and sustainability. The team’s ambition is to turn inspiration into lasting change by engaging local communities and new generations.
Founded in Belgium by Nathan Stranat, Nastassia Gumuchdjian and Louis de Jaeger, the initiative is reimagining the way we live, produce and celebrate together.
