What About Youth ? (W.A.Y)

Caravan Circus
Alexandre Dumas knew what he was talking about: moving forward in the world can sometimes feel difficult. It takes strength, time, and commitment to learn, grow, and push ourselves beyond our limits — and we all hope that this journey is not something we have to trace alone.
That is exactly why Circus Transformation in Action (CTF) was created 10 years ago 🎪
🌍 CTF helps professional circus artists meet, train together, and build a real community across Europe and beyond. More than a program, it is a space where people support one another, learn from each other, and grow together.
The program is also made possible thanks to the support of 16 circus organizations across Europe during the 2025–2026 cycle. We warmly thank them for their commitment, without which none of the 22 participants in the latest edition could have taken part 🙏
✨And the participants themselves say it best — once they complete this transformative journey, they leave with their own reflections, experiences, and voices to share.
That is what we’ll be highlighting here and now 💬

🚞 Travel opens the door to new horizons, especially when we choose to look closely enough to let others show us aspects of the world, and of ourselves, that we had never noticed before.
🎪This idea is reflected in what participants in Circus Transformation in Action (CTF) share with us. Over the course of one year, the programme creates a space for meeting, learning, and exchange between professional circus artists from across Europe — and sometimes beyond 🤝✨
Along the way, participants strengthen their English skills, while also discovering how solidarity in diversity can become a real strength: not an obstacle, but a launchpad for going even further 🚀
🧱 They learn to understand and apply these shared approaches to build together more effectively and pool their resources.
💬 But perhaps the best way to explain that is through their own words — and that is exactly what they accepted to share with us ⤵️

As we close the 9th edition of CTF with the @Galway Community Circus , we wanted to take a step back and revisit why this programme was created in the first place.
🚩 CTF is the flagship programme of the Caravan Network — the initiative that best reflects our mission and the reason our 24 members from 13 countries chose to join us: circus can change lives 🌍💙
This vision comes to life through 3 of our 4 pillars of action:
🫶 Community
🎓 Expertise
📣 Advocacy
🗣️ Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing more about what gives CTF its value and helping people strengthen their communities through social circus. We also want to highlight the voices of the people who experience the programme from the inside: our participants, all professionals working in the circus field 🤹
💬 That’s why we’ve gathered a selection of quotes from their feedback — and as we look ahead to the 10th cycle, starting in next September, we can’t think of a better moment to share them. ✨
Stay tuned 📻
