Photographs
Photographs of the January 2026 kick-off in Sibiu appear on the project’s pages. None is cleared for reuse by a third party yet: the people shown have not been asked. A cleared set, with captions and credit lines, is added here when it exists. Until then, the preview card and the EU emblem above are the images to use.
