I was invited once again by my colleagues of DG REGIO, European Commission, to visually record the two-day meeting of the European funds communicators. More than 250 communicators from across Europe gathered in a magnificent Ghent’s cloister, Belgium, to discuss the future of Cohesion Policy, learn and share the best practices to communicate the benefits of the EU funds to citizens. I thank my colleagues for inviting me to each of the biannual meetings since 2017. Since this first time we noticed that the graphic recording has become one of the most appreciated elements by the participants. The many positive feedback I receive at the event only confirm this observation. That all those who took the time to come and talk to me are also thanked.

Comparing, combining, and connecting things (both obvious and obscure) is a central component of creative thinking.

Do a loony-goony dance 'cross the kitchen floor, put something silly in the world that ain't been there before.
~ Shel Silverstein
Creativity is often defined as the production of something new and useful. But a lot of times when things are new, different, or "ain't been there before", they are seen as silly.
The "silly" question is the first intimation of some totally new development.
~ Alfred Whitehead
Any creative act includes the possibility of being seen or judged to be silly. But creative people do not let this stop them. They are confident and optimistic something good will eventually come from their work.
Creative people must entertain lots of silly ideas in order to receive the occasional stroke of genius.
~ Marshall Cook
When we are angry or depressed in our creativity, we have misplaced our power. We have allowed someone else to determine our worth and then we are angry at being undervalued.
~ Julia Margaret Cameron
Some say anger fuels creativity. This quote by James Russell Lowell explains why that may be:
Usually when people are sad, they don't do anything. They just cry over their condition. But when they get angry, they bring about a change.
Highly creative people are internally directed, with no need to impress others or maintain the status quo. They develop their own rules and standards, while rejecting the limits imposed by others and remaining optimistic about the outcome. These traits allow change to happen and are essential elements of creativity in general, and to some degree, any creative act.

Creativity is most commonly defined as the production of something new and useful. Any creative act requires a touch of the unique or an element of surprise.

A webinar on "How to make good and effective eLearning ?" on... 14 February, Valentin's Day! The speakers colored their advice with love, it's lovely awesome! Here they are: 1) Fall in love with your learners (not with yourself). 2) If you love somebody, set them free. 3) Give your learners a warm embrace. More in my sketchnotes.
Thank you Nora Ganescu, Nuno Cardoso, Nelson Ribeiro Jorge, Paul Hearn from the EU Academy!
