Laia Canals is Director of Tempi – Roots Music Denmark, where she leads the national strategy for Danish roots and folk music with a strong international focus.

“Cultural diversity becomes truly powerful when it is activated through people, networks, and shared purpose.”

In this Lunch Talk, Laia Canals will share how diversity and international collaboration are not abstract values, but daily practices that shape strong creative ecosystems. Through her leadership at Tempi – Roots Music Denmark, Laia has built and sustained global connections that strengthen the Roots music community across borders, cultures, and markets.

This session invites participants to rethink diversity as something we do, not something we declare.

By sharing real examples from international cultural work, Laia offers insight into how inclusive leadership, long-term networks, and cultural exchange create resilient communities, and why diversity becomes a source of strength when it is nurtured with intention.
