The Reset! network represents and supports independent cultural and media organisations across Europe. To this end, it provides a platform for its members to connect with one another, share information about themselves and their situations, develop their expertise and knowledge, and defend their interests. This enables them to collaborate and take action together, from Tbilisi to Lisbon, Kyiv to Prishtina, and Tromsø to Athens. In line with this objective, the first part of the Reset!’s Atlas of Independent Culture and Media has been created collectively around eight topics

Reset! presents its Atlas of Independent Culture and Media, a developed and expanded version of the editorial work carried out through two years of work (2022-2024) embodied in the organisation of 64 workshops across the continent and a significant documentation effort compiled into articles, interviews, and newsletters. The body of work is intended as a sensitive cartography of independent realities in Europe. Divided into two parts, it aims both to explore specific situations across the continent in a collection of articles, interviews, and varied portraits divided in eight topic-based volumes (Part 1), and to argue for improvements and developments in the funding systems and in the recognition processes of independent cultural and media structures on a European scale (Part 2).

The volumes of the Atlas have been produced on the basis of and around the productions and questions raised by the members of the network, and have been structured through an extensive work of curation and commissioning of editorial and iconographic productions and features, with a total of 110 contributors.
